Ajaxtalk

I understand from another message board that F(*^%$@# have signed Gio and Hofland and that Makaay may be headed there as well.

I think they will be stronger next season, I mean if Makaay and then Perez sign for them, then we should take them bit more seriously. The only team in eredivisie who seems abit in decline is PSV. The eredivisie should be contested by Ajax and AZ with Feyenoord as outsiders.

Feyenoord officially don't want Perez anymore.

They have landed Makaay.

As remarkable as their new signings may be (they really are), I don't think there is reason for us to worry. I mean: Gio ain't no Edgar Davids, Kevin Hofland sure as hell ain't no Jaap Stam, Tim de Cler ain't no Urby and Roy Makaay is no longer as good as KJH.

But Feyenoord surely will be a better side than they have been in the two previous seasons, that's a sure thing.

Hofland and De Cler are far from spectacular signings in my opinion, Gio is just a good sigining, but Makaay is still worldclass. He's definitely still better than Huntelaar.

I think that these signings are fantastic.

Why?

Well the theory goes like this....... their wonderful fans will be getting really excited and planning for a great year when they make a clean sweep of all trophies. When this doesn't happen (as sure as day follows night) they will yet again feel incredibly deflated and again just go on about they have the best fans, how lucky Ajax are and a 1000 other excuses that they normally troop out at the end of each season. And this annual process just makes me a happy person. So thankyou in advance Feyenoord.

Well, I'm not sure about the Makaay v KJH debate, difficult to compare, one on the way up and one on the way down and they've not really been playing in comparable leagues. I think Makaay could do well in the Eredivisie though and realistically I suppose they'll have him for about as long as we'll have KJH (though Pierre tells me that they do seem to like old over-the-hill strikers ).

I also agree with OPH's points though . So much huff with so little to show at the end of the season I'm sure.....

Yeah, its the same story every year.

they now want to loand gudjohsson from barcelona. feyenoord are really cranking it up, where they get the money...


im glad that theyre "strengthening", better challenge, though at the same time we need to strengthen since we couldnt win the champs with two rivals, now imagine 3

Feyenoord have added Turkish international Nuri Sahin to their squad. The 18-year-old joins the Rotterdammers on a season-long loan from Borussia Dortmund, where coach Bert van Marwijk worked with the youngster until just before Christmas last year. The left-footed midfielder made his Bundesliga debut at just 16, making him the youngest player ever to appear in the highest tier of German football. He’s also the youngest player to score in the Bundesliga. He has the same two records with the Turkish national team. He now has eight full caps to his name.

Caught the beginning and end of the Fword v. Chelski game last night. I realise it was only a friendly, Chelski didn't play all their best players and all that, I must say Fword looked quite good.

Bert van Marwijk has always been a decent coach in my eyes and the new players looked comfortable under his leadership.

Theo "duckface" Lucius made a terrible error to allow the equaliser, and Makaay's missed penalty was poor.... but overall I caution us against taking this side too lightly....

PSV look to lose Kone and Farfan at the start of the season for injury and illness.

According to Sky Sports News Real Mdrid have just signed Royston Drenthe from Feyenerd. I'm actually quite surprised by that as wasn't that impressed with what I've seen of him (recently mainly the two games against Ajax last season).

Same source says that Robben has gone from Chelsea too.

What really is surprising is that Real paid around 13 mio for this Feyenoord reserve

Drenthe was the best player in Under-21 championship this summer, so i'm not surprised that real paid 13mln for him. this is good news, coz without him Feyenoord doesn't look so dangerous for me anymore

Are you really serious?

and it does not make the Babel deal look that great

oh yeah, i'm serious he really impressed me on under-21 ch.

He did look good... but against U21s ... Spain will be different.

He has potential no doubt but F-word did a good deal IMHO.

Groningen replace Suarez with markus Berg (about 4 m euros) from sweden.

Looks to be top talent, lets take him next year

Things like this make me think ¿where the hell are our scouts ? do we have to depend on other teams finding good players and then plunder them....

PSV managed to ease through against Heracles...bastards.

feyenoord beat Utrecht 3-0, and AZ won 4-0.

We're on top at the moment, lets keep the momentum going!!

Took a late goal to break Heracles .... seems like the usual unconvincing 'get out of jail' shit from PSV.

Yeah, let's bounce those Czechs out of the Champions League.

I read that Sevilla are negotiating for Aruna Kone` . Here's hoping the move goes thru . If the rumor is true, makes more sense that PSV would be in for Luque.

Kone officially moved from PSV to Sevilla today for 12 million euros.
