Nowhere.Brilliant team. Where are they going
Im not sure if PSV will win the league. Ajax is 5 points behind but still needs to play one game which they should win. Psv also isnt doing great lately with Lozano being in bad form. Psv is currently playing a 17 year old on midfield because their big expensive summer signing isnt working out as expected. So not everything at PSV is going how they (PSV) would like it.Unless they draw the Roma/Porto winner this is probably the end of the run for them in the CL. PSV are going to win the title but, Ajax have to be the favorites for the Dutch Cup since they are playing Willem.
They have had a much bigger budget than everyone for some time now. They even have around double of the budget of PSV. And PSV could make money selling Lozano and BergwijnIf they get Porto or Roma next round and they could easily knock them out. Would be amazing to see Ajax in the Semis of a CL again.
Also the money they got from De Jong and the Money they will get for De Ligt they will literally have a monopoly over. the whole league they will have so much money.
Like Monaco two years ago they could go far.....for me only Barca are much better than Ajax......the other clubs are better than Ajax but not sooooo much better.Unless they draw the Roma/Porto winner this is probably the end of the run for them in the CL. PSV are going to win the title but, Ajax have to be the favorites for the Dutch Cup since they are playing Willem.
If the play like that the team is already on the radar.Nowhere.
PSV will win the title, they'll go out of europe in the next round, their talent will be picked up by larger teams in the summer.
They'll get a lot of money but spend it poorly.
Repeat process in 10 years. It's the Ajax way.
They've also got a good chance versus Spurs, & the winner of the Liverpool/Bayern tie. Can't see them beating the oil clubs or Atletico, though... Maybe Lyon?If they get Porto or Roma next round and they could easily knock them out. Would be amazing to see Ajax in the Semis of a CL again.
Also the money they got from De Jong and the Money they will get for De Ligt they will literally have a monopoly over. the whole league they will have so much money.
They're bound to get Barca, De Jong against his new team....I'd back them to get far if they can avoid City, Atletico, and PSG.
Well, I imagine that many of their key players are currently in talks with other clubsBrilliant team. Where are they going
27 feb 2019 Feyenoord - Ajax 0-3Best club ever yada yada yada, they're amazing, I want to have their kids.
Also:
They'll lose 4-5 players the next window. They have money, but top players will never join the Dutch league. They'll continue to produce good young players from their academy but won't win a thing in Europe, unfortunately.We haven't seen the best of this Ajax yet. They've sold De Jong, but with Ryan Gravenberch they have got a new world class prospect from their academy. Only 16 or 17 years, but made his debut already. Very complete and comparable with Pogba. Crazy talented kid.
The rest is irrelevant.27 feb 2019 Feyenoord - Ajax 0-3
27 jan 2019 Feyenoord - Ajax 6-2
28 oct 2018 Ajax - Feyenoord 3-0
That's 8-6 with 2 away games out of 3 in one season.
They are 5 points behind PSV, having played a game less and host PSV at the end of the month. So I'd say they've got a fantastic chance of winning the league.Nowhere.
PSV will win the title, they'll go out of europe in the next round, their talent will be picked up by larger teams in the summer.
They'll get a lot of money but spend it poorly.

The way they've played against Bayern and Madrid this year, i'd fancy them against City too.City in the next round guarenteed
Van de BeekLiked what I saw of Beek last night.Looks like he's got good composure,seems like he can run forever and looks like he's got a great attitude.
2 years? 6 months more like. like the Monaco 16/17 team.Great to see Ajax doing well - the antidote to the poison of petrodollars.
Shame the team will be dismantled within 2 years.
That's what I'd imagineWell, I imagine that many of their key players are currently in talks with other clubs
Unfortunately for you, that was one freak game where none of them turned up and you lot managed to motivate yourself to play way above your level just this one match. This is demonstrated by your loss to Excelsior just a week later. Feyenoord have been dogshite for ages. Even the 16/17 season when you won the league you did it by playing really ugly football. I hope you lot up your game to the point where it becomes a contest again because for too long have Ajax and PSV had a monopoly. We need all three clubs firing on all cilinders again to take the competition back to a respectable level and to get the Dutch national team back to where they "belong". This is coming from a neutral point of view by the way, as I don't really support any Eredivisie club.Best club ever yada yada yada, they're amazing, I want to have their kids.
Also:
Imagine being a Feyenoord supporter and giving a feck about whether they play ugly football. PSV will probably win the league yet again with "ugly" football this year. Such is life. Bottom line, Ajax hasnt won anything, but positive reviews from critics in 5 years.Unfortunately for you, that was one freak game where none of them turned up and you lot managed to motivate yourself to play way above your level just this one match.

Think they'll stay in the NetherlandsBrilliant team. Where are they going
You would fit right in as a punditNot seen any of their matches in the Champions league this season, not even brief highlights, thanks BT !
Does anybody know how Daley Blind has played, and in what position in the Champions League ?
And as for the rest of the competition, with a favourable draw they could win it, why not, and become the first club to win it having had to play three qualifying rounds just to get into it.
What the old he knows nothing, but he's available and cheap ?You would fit right in as a pundit
Don't want to correct the master, because he knew a lot about football. The business side wasn't his best quality tbh.Cruyff said it himself years ago : "it saddens me that Ajax didn't take the necessary steps to become a Big Club like Barcelona".
Small country and league, I know, but still...
Also their last Top Top Generation was the Van Gaal one. 25 years ago.
