I actually think that Vermalen might develop into a great man-marker with a bloke like Stam next to him.jakobg schreef:A youngster next to Stam is exactly what we need. Just like Chivu was the youngster next to Bergdölmo. The only problem is that we don't have that youngster in our team at the moment.
Does this mean we will be buying a new defender or will we just stick with the youngsters. How much should we get for selling Grygera ?????Kowalczyk schreef:Accprding to today's De Telegraaf Grygera has now definitively rejected Ajax's bids. He will not renew his deal. Which means, in practice, that the club will try to sell him this summer (which won't be hard).
Chance that he'll leave in the summer: 99%
K.
Well, not necessarily "piss off" (it's also an option to shake hands, say 'thank you' and sell the player 'in peace'), but I do agree that he must be sold if he doesn't renew. No Bosmans. Absolutely agreed.SPL schreef:He's quoted as saying he will stay and see his contract out.
As Ko said last week chances of him going 99%
No more Bosmans at this club please. However good you are if you do not want to renew then pissoff.
Yeah, man... From now on I will take your advice very seriously. For starters, I guess it's about time for me to get a cock. :DZoefdeHaas schreef:Woah double skills from the ZOEF. As we also got Stam and Oga :yes:ZoefdeHaas schreef:5m I say. But at his age and the way Ajax is playing I could understand if he wants to leave. This means we should get @ least two defenders this summer
I see your point. I love Grygera, I think he's top drawer and I wish he was staying. No disagreement there. But fact is that he won't extend his deal, which will be expiring next summer. Which makes it all very simple: he must be sold, otherwise he'll walk away for free and the club can't have that (too many Bosmans last season and there you are: loss at the end of the season).AsgAarD_xxx schreef:OK, we'll have quite a big money for him, but I am still unhappy with his transfer.... I want him to stay in Ajax.
You forgot Ogararu and Boakye.Venezuelan Ajacied schreef:Ok 5 million is good but now that he's going we are left with only Stam, Heitinga and Vermealen plus maybe Maduro. That prety thin in my opinion add some injury problems and form crisis and we might be watching lindenberg or Gabri as CB, that is obviously not a good idea so i suggest that we buy another defender, someone from the eredivisie who can come cheap and add some detph to the defense.
Ummm... Perhaps you've got a point here, but the least we can do is take this into consideration:SPL schreef:Looks like we are into another Bosman here. He has turned down a new contract and no one is interested .
Ajax may now have to accomodate him when he does not want to be here.
I would tell him that if he wants to stay for this season before doing a bosman he can play in the reserves. His agent would soon get a transfer for him!
I know I will be alone in this as he is a good player BUT he does not want to stay and the club must stop pandering to such players. Last season was a farce.
I think it would be a bit unfair to accuse Gryga of any 'sneaky' behaviour. He's been pretty honest and open all along: he didn't want to extend his deal, because he felt it was time for him to move on. He always said that he wouldn't mind staying here until his contract expired, but he also admitted that he quite fancies the Serie A.Kowalczyk schreef:Yeah. He has only one year left on his contract, so next summer he will walk out for free. I am pretty sure that Ajax would prefer to sell him now they can still get some money for him, but the interest in Grygera was mainly coming from Italy. From Milan and Juventus, to be precise. So I think the whole scandal over there f*cked things up for Grygera, who doesn't seem to be unhappy to be an Ajacied for another year, by the way.AjaxPDX schreef:I find it interesting that Grygera is still in Amsterdam and talking about position roles for the season. A month or two ago it was a 100% certainty that we all believed he was gone in the summer, yet he's still there, and it's starting to look like there's a possibility he might still be there when the season opens.
