The process that Ajax has gone through is very cool this season and their coach is also very strong, he can raise the mentality of the players to rise from the bottom of the standings and are now in fifth place in the standings, of course the target of entering the UCL league next season is somewhat impossible so their target is the most realistic it entered the European league, because securing tickets to the European competition was already a good achievement considering the destruction of the team's performance this season.
With a difference of 8 points from Az Alkmaar, I think Ajax, with its current development, still has hope of overtaking Az Alkmaar, because I'm not sure Alkmaar will be consistent, they will definitely make some mistakes in big matches like the previous match against PSV. they lost badly 4-0.
Ajax have not been at their best performances but they've definitely been winning games and have been consistent to it. Definitely a coach has his own impact in a team, once the head is faulty, there'll always be loopholes. It means a lot for a team to get victorious consecutively in a row and for Ajax, that's caused a gradual improvement regardless not doubting that they still have to put in more work. They've got players no doubt but the squad needs to be better, Ajax is a team better than a narrow win, at the moment though, finding the right player who's top and ready in all areas to give that competitive capacity in both the domestic league and the European leagues will be hard.
Every team won't want to loose their kept men and every player that's be free are the ones that weren't so solid for the team. It's quite expensive to get for a team a high valued player no doubt and Ajax management may not likely be up to the task and it's going to be unsafe to settle for a less standard player. Their winning consistency is good but they just have to find a way to stop the wins from occuring through a narrow means. The coach is good at what he does but he has to improve himself and the team too, once all the necessary characteristics needed are in place, then it'll be an easy ride for Ajax.
