AFC Ajax Amsterdam Thread [2006-2007]

[Silencer]

Ah ok thanks guys, I thought it sounded like a Klingon name
He looks kinda tough but he better be if he wants to survive with a club like ours where the expectations are high and you have to perform all the time
He will find out that the trainings are a lot tougher then with Sparta.
Ten Cate has an eye for good players so I'm counting on his judgement.

 

[$teauA]

after that he was gunning for Mirel Radoi from Steaua but there were doubts if he could manage the tempo that Ajax plays

I doubt that was the problem. Becali (Steaua owner) is not letting him go for less than 11 million euros.

Yeah right more expensive then Klaas Jan Huntelaar
Ajax would never pay that amount for Radoi that's for sure!

We've lost against Dortmund today
It's only a friendly but still it's a defeat.
First we were ahead with 1-0 thanks to Klaas-Jan of course, they won because of a penalty :boohoo: so that sucks.
Funny thing this afternoon was that Borussia's bus broke down and our bus picked their squad up on their way to the game

van der Meyde back to Ajax??

More transfernews:

Ten Cate wants to strengthen the rightwing and it seems we are interested in Andy v.d. Meyde.
HTC wants to bring him back home.
I say go for it, he had a few bad seasons with Inter and Everton but I'm sure he will feel right at home again with Ajax
Welcome back Andy

[BenBeckham]

yeah I remember that bloke being breathtaking at times before things turned sour when he moved to Inter and Everton.

Don't loose hope Silencer

 

[PSVFOREVER]

What do you know about clubfeeling and having a clubheart
Funny thing is that former Ajaxplayers returned home in the past and they will in the future.
Stam didn't even want to go back to P$V but chose a topclub finally, ask around in the foreign country if they know PSV?? who??? is their reaction.
I was in Italy a while ago for Christ Sake and they never heard of PSV untill I said "Eindhoven"
But when I mentioned AJAX hehe EVERYONE knew who we were, started talking about Cruyff and van Basten, de Boer, Kluivert, Davids, Bergkamp etc.
So you better ssssssssstttttttttttt if I were you
Krohn Dehli is a hell of a lot better than that Beasley who really sucked at the WC, hell even Tom de Mul is better

 

[PSVFOREVER]

So, what does it matter that Ajax is more known than PSV? I dont care. And saying PSV isnt a topclub is ignorant, in recent history, we are more succesful than Ajax...(say the past 20 years or so)

Besides, Stam didnt go to PSV because PSV wasnt prepared to pay the amount Milan asked, probably because PSV realised Alex would stay. And both Alex and Stam in one defense wouldnt be a good combination.

 

[Silencer]

Suuuuuuuuuuuuure the reason why Stam came to us and not to your little city was because you didn't react fast enough it's as simple as that. Ajax was faster and Martin van Geel immediately flew to Milan to close the deal.
Now that's what I call a great technical director
PSV is no topclub for me sorry, who cares about the recent history and what the hell are you talking about..??
Ajax was in European competitions much better than your club, who won in 1995 the Champions League and who qualified almost every year for the Champions League and came as far as the quarterfinals or even further..??
Sure in the last years PSV played CL but before that you were sh!te in Europe. Even if you won the CL, Ajax would still be more famous everywhere simply because we are Ajax and you are Eindhoven :boohoo:

 

[smoove]

tomas sivok is an awesome signing for you, one of the most promising CMFs in europe, very fundamental player with great vision...

 

[Silencer]

Thanks for the info Smoove
I've read that the talks are still going with him so it won't be long till something will be announced

 

[shot_stopper91]

Looking forward to it

According to HTC, Roger isn't fast enough. He barely knew anything about the player but on advise from Cruyff he decided to bring him to Amsterdam.
But he can learn to become better and he has to says HTC, that is if he wants to keep up with Ajax.

Charisteas has been demoted to the 2nd team, yesterday he played for the B-team and was the man of the match. 2 goals and some great assists made him this. According to the people who were watching the game, selling Charisteas would be a big mistake.
Actually...... I kinda agree with them
Poepon back to the 2nd team and Charisteas back in the A-selection!
C'mon Harry is better than Poepon that's for sure :boohoo:

 

[Drvar]

i apologise in advance for this post, but goddamn, youre the only dutch people i know, so i didnt know where else to turn.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LbcukNZLnws&NR

if someone could please translate this clip, or explain it for me, id greatly appreciate it. im only interested in the bits in between, where the talkshow host is talking, in a different outfit.

 

[Silencer]

Well first of all thanks for this clip, was a long time since I laughed so hard
Second of all this host is not Dutch but Belgian so the title is wrong.
He is telling about a program he used to host named Boomerang, this was a show where ppl could talk about difficult things in life and also about sexuality. Compare it with Jerry Springer or Oprah for all I care.
One day on the show the subject was about medical errors and the man on the couch is telling that he is talking with a squeeky voice ever since he had an operation that went wrong.
Of course the host should be professional and he is not allowed to laugh but he couldn't stop laughing which cost him his TV-career as a host in Belgium.
Basically that's what it's about

 

[LuckyStrike]

Without even clicking the link I know exactly what clip it is (and I started laughing).

 

[Drvar]

thanks a bunch Silencer .

btw, i always thought this was a sketch or something, comedy stuff. i guess not.

 

[PSVFOREVER]

So a team with 19 league titles isnt a topclub? We have past Feyenoord a long time ago already...Besides, Ajax did win the CL in 95, PSV won it in 1988...That's both quite some time ago.

Eindhoven is still the smallest city in Europe who won the CL That record won't be taken from us in the near future. Although Vilarreal did come quite close.

 

[Silencer]

OK fine can we stop this pointless discussion now
Let's just say both our teams need to perform well to bring Dutch football back on the international charts.
