12 Aug 2012: Ajax - AZ

[souras84]

our midfield trio isn't half as good as last years. not because of no eriksen. it seems we cannot deploy the same way as last year

[saddlerian]

Looks like Sana's coming on for 2nd half...Schone off!! He did get a blow to the head!!!

[Blind3]

By the end of last season, our mf was used to playing together. This season , the one thing Serrero and Schone have in common is that their last names begin with S and they play for the same club. And who knows where Anita's head is ? We have the A-S-S midfield...Anita, Serrero, Schone. Amsterdam wasn't built in a day. Sana doesn't change ASS. Substituting one ASS for another ASS.

[Amol]

WTF was that all about

[saddlerian]

Oh dear...first bit of pressure....Altedore, 1-1



Toby wasn't strong enough!!!!

[Blind3]

Come on Ajax.

[Orange14]

Just really bad defending on both goals.

[saddlerian]

WHAT THE F**K!!!!
Where's the defence????

[Amol]

Wow. 2 chances 2 goals. Anita was just standing around and no one picked Anita's man.

[rjf1]

Altidore is strong -- but slow. All Toby had to do was keep in front of him. When he tried to muscle him for the ball he got blown away.

[SE6Ajacied]

2nd bt of pressure and 2-0. Nice defending lads!

[kezme44]

Fucking awesome. Didn't see this one coming with our defense.

[Amol]

BTW liking Sana so far.

[saddlerian]

Blind got caught again there!!!

[Amol]

C'mon Siggy, you have to do better than that. Great cross by Lukoki but was missed by De Jong and shot into Rotterdam by SIggy.

[kezme44]

I hope this turns into a wake up call for the management

[Amol]

Great shot by Sana on to the underside of bar but the ball stays out somehow.

[saddlerian]

Klassen for Serrero...76

KEEP the SODDING BALL!!!!

[Blind3]

Janssen warming up for his last Ajax performance ?

[saddlerian]

Jannsen for Blind...80 mins!!!!

[Amol]

2-2 - finally Siggie remembers that he is Ajax's CF.

[saddlerian]

Siggy...8 to go!!!! 2-2

[rjf1]

Theo makes wonderful pass to Lukoki -- Lukoki makes a lovely move to get it into Siggi -- BANG -- goal! Now for another.

[SE6Ajacied]

Nice one Siggi 2-2. A bit scrappy in the build up but a great strike in the end..

[Orange14]

Fair result all things considered. Off to Yoga and my player ratings will be posted later today.
