Yes! Excellent news! I am running in the Bay to Breakers that morning, so I won't be able to watch it live. But espn3 keeps it available for replay, so I'll be able to watch in the afternoon with my boys. When I'm watching, you lads will already be celebrating (or commiserating).

[aveslacker]

You're running Bay to Breakers in your Ajax kit, yes?

[acab]

I'm more and more calm actualy. If we don't win it this season, we'll do it next. This time for sure

[Kowalczyk]

Right then, that was the cup final. Too bad, but 15 May is what it's all about.

Quite right; Barca lost the cup final to Madrid in AET by one goal and then marched on to the CL semifinals and bingo, different result! We will do the same.

YES

[SPL]

We will win but going into games without a striker makes things difficult. De Jong is much better as midfielder.

11 tegen 11 has the analysis of yesterday's match at: http://11tegen11.wordpress.com/2011/05/ ... or-twente/ The key thing for de Boer is to make the necessary adjustments to compensate for what went wrong yesterday. I suspect Twente will play similarly as they did and we need to figure out a different way to get the ball up from the back without Vertonghen and Alderweireld. Two midfielders will need to play an important role here. It's going to be an interesting tactical match that's for sure.

[souras84]

I hope WE and of course Siem, find the holy grail of what suits him better. IMO he is better in any position, WHEN he plays well. Orange, hopefully we get the victory next week, in any possible way. Free Eriksen in anyway and a goal will follow! We have to find our way through ultra defensive approaches such as Twente's and other teams we played

[Ajaxfanuk]

I am far too pumped for this game, Its got me riled up like its a bloody war or something

[Tom_]

I know, the cup final has really added to the anticipation hasn't it? Can't wait!

[Orange14]

Apparently our old friend (NOT), Pieter Vink will be the match official this Sunday.

[souras84]

How bad can this be? Remind me of a slaughter he officiated

[acab]

He's not bad, i think. He was out here in Sofia this weekend, refering Levski - litex. Did good job. The linesman made 1 mistake, but not Vink

[afcajax73]

Toby picked up a thigh strain in training and may not be able to feature... heres to hoping he gets back!

[souras84]

shit happens

[Over Pasanens Head]

What a great game is in store with everything to play for. All 3 results are a possibility but I have this feeling in my waters that it will end as a draw 1-1. If this is the case then I just pray that PSV don't pick up 3 points.

[Philippe]

My feeling is that Twente will collapse under pressure.

Er... that sounds nice, but isn't it more our style than theirs?

[Philippe]

We'll be around 50.000 Ajax fans in the Arena. That will make the difference.
