Aaargh, great attack over James and Gnabry, but James misses the sitter at the end
We're looking better without Ribery and Robben.

In addition replace Javi with Goretzka and Boateng with Süle and this should be the starting lineup.
They are old and they don't have any depth really. At this rate, they'll come to a point where they need a complete overhaul.
Sanchez 
And Guedes elects to pass when in an excellent position, after spending the game shooting from positions he can't score from.
Roma with yet another goal. Dzeko hat trick.
Neuer saves the point
Who is going to survive longer, Lopetegui or Kovac?
What are the odds that both are getting binned before January?

I miss Dzeko
Ajax should've won comfortably. Missed 3 sitters.
I miss Heynckes and Pep
Ref in the Madrid game.... a red card for that???
Idiot.
Idiot.
Madrid is losing, something needs to be done
what happened? my ticker said it was two yellows. time wasting?

Who will be available as replacement, though? Bring Heynckes out of retirement again? Let the old man rest, please, he earned it.
Maybe you can try the Leipzig model? Have your DoF do the coaching. Brazzo to the rescue!
Ajax should have won tbh.
(can't believe i'm saying this)

That vd Beek chance. Hiw'd he fecking miss it
Vlašić wins it for CSKA!
We should have won at the Allianz Arena. Can't believe imI saying this what a performance from the team.
what a performance from the team.Bayern got away with a point vs Ajax.
Ajax missed a couple of sitters.
Great much for us Ajax fans besides not winning. Nice display of good attacking football.

Akinfeev was unhappy with ref not giving a free kick.
Now Akinfeev should have shut up (winning, last minute) but he just moaned at the ref and waved his hands. Ref yellows him then yellows him again (= red).
Use your common sense ref. Tell him to be quiet or worst, yellow him but red?!
TNT are a shocking channel, to think I thought BT was about as bad as it gets.
It's been good for football as a whole that Ajax has been on the rise again these past few seasons. From what little I've seen of them this year its a lot more exciting footie than the shite United puts on.
It's easier for Ajax because whoever manages us should mostly play 'the Ajax way'. We are a team with a deep attacking philosophy. Throughout all teams in the club we try to play like this.

This pleases me, I’ll be at ArenA for the return leg and it promises to be a hell of a game at this rate.

Dunno, i think he'll get the season even if everything goes tits up and to be fair it would be unfair to put all the blame on him. Everything that was build up over the years was pretty much torn down after Hoeneß took over again. From Sammer, Reschke, Pep to Hoeneß, Kovac, Brazzo.....bunch of clowns. Nvm the team...the old (or not so old in some cases) guard is decling, but continue to start, because there are no alternatives. The new(er) players are just not up for it. The only player who showed any desire/ability/potential to take over is permanently injured (Coman).
It looks the Champions League is Juventus to lose atm. Maybe only Liverpool and P.S.G. can threaten them. City, Barca, Real and Bayern are all struggling.
btw: edgar davids is a fun analyst/guest. I'd like to see him more frequently. Cool guy.
A little early for that, CL isn't won in October.
Sure as hell we know how to lose it. However its too early in the season to say anything, the real champions league starts in march.
jeez what a jinx
exactly
and...??
jeez what a jinx
You look the best atm. Let's what is gonna change from february.I know, but Juventus have been the only big team who have impressed so far.
He was amazing. I especially liked his tackle on Goretzka (?) who got so frustrated he tackled him afterwards.
Think this cements his status as must have young defender for all the big clubs. Incidentally, I think Bayern wouldn't be a bad option for the guy. Though I think he'l prefer Spain if he can take his pick.
Besides De Ligt, I think Ziyech was massive yesterday, best performance I've seen from him and against this opposition. Amazing.
Games like these make me really fecking jealous
Because even though I'm really happy for Ajax, it's just not true happiness, or something.
we played with two weak teams and CL starts in March anyway. So far based on opponents and performances Liverpool looks the best TBH anyway
