I always predict that things will come down to the last match day. This year it sure looks like it!

I think the addition of Neres and Kluivert in the last few games has energized the team once again. Dolberg's injury is turning out to be a blessing in disguise (don't scream at me yet) and hopefully Bosz will see that too. Traore has been moved away from the wing and that is letting us have a lot more creativity and speed over there.

In general -
1. Neres and Kluivert are significantly better wingers than Traore and
2. Dolberg is much better striker than Traore

Watched the last 30mins.Queensy did his bit with a goal but I kept waiting for their winner.

Still put my money on them as PSV will be a difficult game.They could blow up on the last day like we did last year.

Traore has played his best 3 games this last week and we should not rush Dolberg back.Neres and Kluivert both far better wingers than Younes and Traore.

Great goal by Menig. Have you guys seen his miss against Roda JC last Thursday?

It's over for PSV. A draw with ADO and they're our of the title race for good...

Feyenoord are 0-1 up away to Vitesse, a win here will almost certain make them eredivisie winners, as we know Ajax won't win away to PSV Eindhoven

0-2 now with a brace by Jorgensen. Looks like the title is slipping away.

Vitesse was our only hope unless Fword cock up on the last day like we did last year.

If Feyenoord win eredivisie and Ajax win the Europa league, it's good for Dutch football

Feyenoord are 4 points clear of Ajax. Hopefully now we can focus on the Europa league

NAC promoted beating NEC who go down. NAC won 1-0 in Breda but yesterday 4-1 in Nijmegen.

Roda stay up beat MVV 1-0 ,was 0-0 in Maastricht

Finally Utrecht won the Europa Cup play off . AZ won 3-0 at home but yesterday Utrecht won 3-0 and then won on penalties. They missed a pen near the end of full time so could have won 4-0 and avoided ET

NAC Breda is a nice team with a fanatic crowd to have in the Eredivisie.

The FC Utrecht vs AZ Alkmaar game was crazy. Well deserved win for Utrecht. Tim Krul's goalkeeping again seemed a joke at all three goals conceeded. Then deep, deep in injury time he stops a penalty from Haller who had never missed before.

At the end the Utrecht players, including Haller, took the penalties better.

well done Utrecht through to the EL 4th round on away goals.

PSV losing 1-0 and 2-0 overall.A disgrace to Dutch football if they get ko'd.

PSV out ,a joke of a team.The 3rd best Dutch side cannot get by a lowly Croatian side !!

Utrech were unlucky in the draw today and have to play Zenit St. Petersburg in the playoff round. Vitesse, as the cup winner, are already in the group stage. It looks bleak for The Netherlands in terms of coefficient points this season.

PSV lost 2-0 at Heerenveen ,good news.Hopefully Feyenoord will drop some points when they start playing in Europe.
These 2 clubs play each other next week ,a draw will be good.

Feyenoord 0 NAC 2 great result

Amazing that we have a chance to go top of the table tomorrow. In the Eredivisie anything can happen!!!

EDIT: Ooops, Heerenveen won today so they would still be a point above Ajax if Ajax win.

Yeah good to see F-Word loose. And the second NAC goal was an absolute blunder by F-words keeper :)

Diedrich Boer came up really big in goal as PEC Zwolle held Feyenoord 0-0!!

Spent the last 20 mins watching and cheering on PEC ,Boer still a good goalie. Lets hope VVV do us a favour today.

Not going to happen. I tuned into the match just after PSV had tied it 2-2. VVV player had an awful two footed challenge on Arias and got sent off. 2-4 now in favor of PSV. Assume they will win it now.

Sending off or no sending off, it was obvious that they were always going to win it -- it was just a matter of time before Venlo broke down. Too bad for us.

Yes saw 2-1 and though great ,then 10mins later 4-2 and its over. We have gone up to 2nd which is good but 5 points behind PSV and the toughest game of the year next week for us.

From what I saw in the games yesterday, they are clearly a cut above us. Move the ball faster, more accurate with their passes, and they counter attack with a purpose -- you could see them running preplanned routes -- like receivers in American football -- to set up their shots on goal. Barring a breakdown resulting from games in Europe -- or a miraculous transformation in our play -- I don't think we are going to beat them out for the title this season.
