22 Jan 2012: AZ - Ajax

I don't know about perfectly placed—the wind certainly helped. Well, it'll be helping us in the second half, if we're still in touch.

[orange goblin]

we totally disappeared from the pitch

[saddlerian]

at the moment it reminds me of a knife and butter!!!!! slicing through so easily!!!!

[Rooie]

Thursday all over again...

Let's face it, it's a matter of quality.

Thursday all over again...

Let's face it, it's a matter of quality.

let's face it, half our lineup is missing

[Van basten]

OMG. I forget how pathetic we sometimes can be.

[souras84]

what a terrible wall placing for the set piece!!!!

[Orange14]

After a good initial 20 minutes the team has gone missing. They don't seem to realize that going into a tough wind like today you need to play a SHORT passing game and that long passes are dicey at best. Great free kick by Elm but if our defense had done the job just before that Vertonghen would not have had to take a yellow card on the take down. Blind cannot defend Beerens at all, he's just too slow. Janssen is terrible and Lodeiro should be given a chance in the second half as we need to score. Vermeer has been extremely lucky so far that the score is only 1-0.

FdB - get your head out of the toilet and make the necessary changes. This is the season right here and now. You risk becoming the Liverpool of the Eredivisie!.

Ok, it was bad, but not that bad. We we're looking the more likely in the first 20 minutes, but then we started coughing up the ball too deep in our own half. It's only 1–0, and we had a goal that may have been legitimate ruled out and a couple of good chances.

Also, did you see the crazy wind? That's behind us this half.

[Orange14]

Interesting that today we have German commentary on the SopCast 13th stream.

[souras84]

It's like after each goal, our concentration goes to Hell....

These days, my German is better than my Dutch so this is a little better.

[Tom_]

I understand neither, but M&M has the usual Dutch stream if you want to switch. Said it before—at least you get the names pronounced properly!

[SPL]

i turned over to MM4 its in dutch .
We are almost as poor as Thursday

[Orange14]

Maybe it was the wind, but it seemed like we were constantly passing the ball backwards compared to AZ. Players are not looking upfield at all but given that we really on have one midfielder who knows what to do (Eriksen) we can't hope for anything better.

[Amol]

Great free kick by Elm but if our defense had done the job just before that Vertonghen would not have had to take a yellow card on the take down. Blind cannot defend Beerens at all, he's just too slow. Janssen is terrible and Lodeiro should be given a chance in the second half as we need to score.

Enoh coughs up the ball when he had possession. He took a bad second touch on it?!?! Trouble is - even when Jannsen is trying to open hiself up to get the ball from Toby and Jan, Toby has been hitting his favorite diagonal ball to Ebecilio who does nothing with it. Blind has been extremely lucky with Beerens so far.

I agree Lodeiro for Jannsen, Mickey moves to left and Ozbiliz on for Ebecilio on the right.

[Orange14]

I'm switching over to ESPN3; maybe it will bring us some luck.

[bluedaddy19]

yet another blatant AZ dive

[Orange14]

Nice dive by Maartens.

[Amol]

WTF shot was that from De Jong. He slices the ball hard and wild into the stands from 10 yards.


....and Bulykin for Enoh?? So De Jong into the midfield and Janssen into DM. Excellent!!! looooooool

[bluedaddy19]

GREAT!!! ANOTHER INJURY!!!

for fucks sake

[bluedaddy19]

wow... ebecilio fouled from behind in the corner... adn they give AZ a throw

WHAT??

[bluedaddy19]

AZ are very clumsy tacklers

[bluedaddy19]

ebecilio loses his nerve at the moment of truth

URGH

this game is raising my blood pressure by the minute
