Can't see why not. We're certainly are not odds on favourite, but imo nobody is. PSV lost key players (they might well be without Alex and da Costa), we don't know whta's happening at Ajax and AZ mainly bought very talented youngsters.

A while I go I put some money on AZ (9/2) and Feyenoord (9/1), which are the best bets.

If i was a betting man , i put money on Feyenoord who just concentrate on the league.

Ajax have not that 'big' problems and wont win the title , the problems come from a coach who may not get the best out of the team .. i.e. playing 4-3-3 when you don't have the players. I have no problem with the personal .. its just the tactics + formation.

You think Kone is trying to force a move by not appearing at trainings and refusing to arrive earlier?

Haven't got a clue. But I wouldn't mind him staying. Think he's overrated.

Who knows what will happen, if there are people around tabling 16M English Lira for Bent, Kone could go anywhere

Take my word, Huntelaar the mercenary will leave as soon as a good club comes for him. He's a c**t after all.

Klaas-Jan Huntelaar heeft besloten dat hij komend seizoen 'in principe' bij Ajax wil blijven spelen

"Ik heb in de vakantie nagedacht en besloten dat ik wil blijven", aldus Huntelaar

"Tenzij grote clubs als Manchester United langskomen. Maar in principe blijf ik."

What a c**t.

Seldom do pledges of allegiances come any weaker.

Spoiled brat. And a big time charlie in attitude.

My thoughts exactly : PSV would hardly miss him, he's mainly been shite for them.

Same for Farfan though, he always goes missing in the big matches...

@ DD

Money will be the death of him , he goes for money so does respect.

But he is our 'c**t' and for the time being i take his word ..

Kone is being linked with us today !

To be honest, you don't need him. Kone is a bad finisher and right now you need more sharpness in front.
Kone can be great nippy lone striker; he'll get past 4-5 players, dodge the keeper and then miss an open goal.

So he is saying that he will only leave if a big club like Man utd comes in for him otherwise stay in Ajax right?

Dutch FA Cup draw:

25,26 or 27 september: Feyenoord v Utrecht

Dunno about the other matches.

Yes.

Whats the problem with that ?

Dark Savante wrote:Whats the problem with that ?

Problem ?

Wasnt DD calling him a c**t.

Dark Savante wrote:Wasnt DD calling him a c**t.

I think Huntelaar is perceived as a 'un-sporting' kind of guy who seems to be a mercenary.



Louis van Gaal questioned his professionalism.

Is he?

Yes

I think hes left Adidas for Nike .. so maybe ??

but he is a nice guy , professional and down to earth

FC Groningen verklaart Ajax oorlog om Suárez
12/7/2007 21:12

FC Groningen laat Luis Suárez niet vertrekken naar Ajax. De Amsterdammers hebben de laatste dagen een bod uitgebracht op de Uruguayaanse spits, maar de Groningers willen absoluut niet onderhandelen over een transfer.
Op haar eigen website laat FC Groningen weten 'publiekslieveling' Suárez 'domweg' niet kwijt te willen. Dat heeft de club ook Ajax toevertrouwd, maar technisch directeur Martin van Geel zou volgens de Groningers toch contact willen opnemen met de begeleiders van de jeugdinternational.

'Ajax mag niet met de speler zelf praten, omdat wij daarvoor geen toestemming geven', klinkt algemeen directeur Hans Nijland stellig. 'Maar het mag duidelijk zijn dat ze Suárez graag willen hebben. Wij gaan er echter dwars voor liggen. Wij hebben vorig jaar onze nek uitgestoken voor Suárez. Hij is pas 20 jaar, heeft nog een vierjarig contract bij ons en wij zijn een ambitieuze club. In het realiseren van onze plannen hebben we Suárez ook komend seizoen hard nodig.'

Bovendien vindt Nijland dat Ajax veel te weinig biedt voor Suárez. 'Ik las in Voetbal International dat Van Geel tegen Wesley Sneijder heeft gezegd dat het bod van Valencia een belediging was voor zowel de speler als de club. Datzelfde wil ik nu zeggen over het bod dat Ajax op Suárez heeft uitgebracht. Maar welke prijs Ajax ook zou hebben genoemd, wij willen er gewoon niet met ze over praten.'

Suárez heeft één seizoen gespeeld voor FC Groningen, waarvoor hij in 29 competitieduels tien doelpunten maakte. Tevens werd hij voor het eerst opgeroepen voor de nationale selectie van Uruguay. Ajax zag deze week aanvallers Tom De Mul, Kenneth Perez en Ryan Babel vertrekken.

Motherfuckers, I knew they would do this! Cant believe we didnt make an offer for Suarez yet!

Van Geel: Suárez wil graag naar Ajax

Ajax technisch directeur Martin van Geel bevestigt op de site van de Telegraaf de lezing van FC Groningen dat Ajax interesse heeft voor Suárez en dat FC Groningen weigert mee te werken (zie eerder bericht). „FC Groningen wil niet meewerken. We hebben tot drie keer toe met de club contact gezocht. We mogen volgens de reglementen daarna wel degelijk met de zaakwaarnemer van Suarez praten. We hebben dat ook gedaan. We hoorden namelijk dat Suarez wel interesse in een overgang had. En na een gesprek met het management van Suarez weten we zeker dat hij graag naar Ajax verhuist. We willen hem daarom nog steeds graag overnemen.”



This could get funny!

Van Geel: Suárez wil graag naar Ajax

That's the best title I've read.

Dutch FA should give them 30 points deduction for tapping up Suarez.

So Huntelaar is on his way too...

Hope for some serious abuse from Groningen.

I now pass the mike to Axe...

Don't believe the press + Huntelaar will remain a Ajax player next season.

What do the rumours about Huntelaar say? Who has bought him, according to those rumours that is?

That he stays...in principal. Read: no-one wants him. + some bullshit about big club and I'm gone.

Ive just read Shota Averladze has signed for Levante. Im shocked they would let him leave after all the goals he has scored for them and especially after Perez left to PSV. I guess with Kovermans, Jenner etc they feel they are covered well enough.

I've decided to put some money on Feyenoord for next season, they seem like the only team making forward steps at the moment (obviously i recognise AZ have brought in good youngsters but i just dont think they will be good enough to win it next season).

No problem : Suarez is way better than Babel so for 20M euros the dishonorable mercenary collectors can buy him

Perez was already sold to Ajax and Koevermans also wants to leave...

It's a blessing in disguise though : one of the reasons AZ missed all the proces at the end of the season was that Arveladze was completely out of form for the last four months.

Shota is too old, he can't hack it anymore.

AZ has once again bought a number of young talents, one of them being Ari supposedly the next Afonso Alves so I wouldn't worry much about them.
