Nice article from today's Guardian about Wesley Sneijder.

http://blogs.guardian.co.uk/sport/2007/ ... een_w.html

"What's the difference between Sneijder and Beckham?

One wears the No23 shirt, scores free-kicks, delivers 45-yard assists, is adored by fans and speaks perfect English. The other is David Beckham."

Arf.

Trabelsi is supposedly in talks with French club, Le Mans.

absurd

And Anastasiou is still looking for a club.
Having played for Ajax is no guarantee for the future these days...

private message to HTC : sign Anastasiou NOW !

HAHA what? That'd be like saying "Trabelsi is in talks with belgian club La Gantoise", seriously wtf now...

watch it, there are some Ajax fans in Normandie ..

As far as I know Le Mans is not in Normandie

This is a serious rumor by the way. He was supposed to sign yesterday or today and nothing happened yet. But the simple fact to be linked with such a club is obviously not a good sign for him...

It used to be : La Normandie est un ancien pays d'Europe du nord-ouest de la France qui occupa tout d’abord la basse vallée de la Seine en 911, puis Le Mans et Bayeux en 924, le Cotentin, l’Avranchin et les îles de la Manche en 933.

That's why Trabelsi wants to go there. He is misinformed.

Kop star: I'm a Babel basher

You're having me on now Ryan... .

Former Ajax captain and fallen angel Julien Escudé is a starter in the top match against Italy due to injuries in the french central defence.

GO FRANCE!!!!!!!!!!!!

PS: Italian supporters booed La Marseillaise and hundreds of them gave nazi salutes. Brilliant.....not.

Holland beat Bulgaria 2-0 thanks to SNEIJDER and Van Nistelrooy.


The game was at the ArenA so it was nice to see Sneijder score :hupajax.gif:

Lazio have been linked with the free-transfer signing of former Manchester City and Ajax wing-back Hatem Trabelsi

Kluivert played his first game for Lille tonight apparently. He looks fit and willing to work hard and keep a low profile. We'll see how it unfolds.

Question: What's the difference between Sneijder and Beckham?

Answer: One wears the No23 shirt, scores free-kicks, delivers 45-yard assists, is adored by fans and speaks perfect English. The other is David Beckham.

The joke's getting old, but here's the article in its entirety (from The Guardian:

Escude scored for Sevilla (oops, sorry I mean Arsenal - og) in the CL last night......

dws schreef:GOOOAAAALLLLL PEREZ!!!!!! .... Shit, just remembered he now plays for PSV

That was brilliant. I have to say that I reacted the exact same way last night... . God I miss Kenneth... .

Perez is a great footballer and I miss him as a player, but he can be a real pain in the arse when he spends much time on the bench. He will then develop into a very negative factor and a guy who manipulates team-mates and coaches.

That is the reason why Ajax wanted to get rid of him and it's a potential timebomb at PSV. Even after yesterday's game he had a very telling TV interview. The reporter said something like: "That was a great goal, Kenneth."

He said: "Yeah, thanks a lot, but I do hope I won't spend too much time on the bench."

He will of course score against us - quite obviously...

I've read about Perez being a difficult customer but HTC gave him good reason to be so.

Funnily enough I heard the exact opposite, that if wasnt for HTC and another of the coaching staff defending him his arse would have been out of the window at Ajax immediately after his little racial incident last year.

Personally he was an ok player but not half as good as he thought himself to be. If he lost the ball, which was quite often as his passing wasnt anything great, he was not a player to make backward runs to tackle or retrieve the ball unlike Sneijder. And for all the goals he scored, a lot of them were when we were already hammering teams.

A player with ok ability but for all the time I have seen him play not one I will miss much as definitely not a team player, he wasnt there playing for Ajax as far as I am concerned he was there to play for himself.

I think that's a rather unfair assessment of Perez's playing ability/worth.

Perez was well worth a starting position in many a game last season and not just because he perfomed well when coming on as a sub, but because in many a game his rival(s) for a starting position played poorly. That is why I said he was given good reason to be difficult.

As for our so called Manager ... the less said, the better.
