Topic: Eredivisie 23/24 - discussion thread - page 41. (Read 17447 times)

the games involving the big teams are over, and I confess that this is a season with surprises, for example Ajax who played against Fortune, in a game in which Ajax was seen by me as the favorite, but unfortunately Ajax was unable to beat the game and it is starting to show that last season's poor performance has not been overcome and that this season we cannot expect much from ajax, on the other side there is also another big one, feyenoord who played against utrecht, won and scored 5 goals, it was a game in which Feyenoord conceded just one goal, it seems that this season they will also fight for the title, in this game Feyenoord's superiority was visible

Another team that I consider a strong candidate for the title is PSV, who in these first league games are playing very well and as expected they won in the game against RKC, it was a very easy game for PSV who managed to score 4 goals and didn't concede no goals, so psv is in second place in the table with 9 points, with 9 goals scored and only 1 goal conceded, psv in these first 3 games is having a good campaign, if they can maintain this consistency until the end of the season then they could become champions. That's because Ajax doesn't seem to be in good shape this season to fight for the title.

Feyenoord won their game very easy, PSV and Ajax were postponed because of the Europa Cup games?

But I'm a bit worried about Ajax again now, they have earned about 117 million with the transfers to the Premiere League but also lost important players, since the outstanding championship title the season before last, very good players have left Ajax including the coach, it could be another tough season.

Nice to see Feyenoord took a victory for them, they need this one to not lose so much the train of the contenders, the other day i change a little my mind about Ajax, because i see finally they dont have a bad team, they still have some big players like Berghuis and Bergwijn plus the newcommer Gaston Avila in defense and Van de Boomen.

I was expecting Feyenoord to win but I must say that the goals were too many for a single game. De club van het volk drawed points in two games this new season, they needed to step up their game and make things to become easier for them. Hitting the tremendous winnings 6-1 on De Zwarte Schapen, checking to see the credits given was valid. Feyenoord have a promising future in league games, Almere City got humiliated by Feyenoord who was very fierce in the game. Feyenoord mounted more pressure on the visitors because they were craving for three points in the new season.

Feyenoord, who had drawn for two weeks, put an end to this and managed to add 3 points to their score by defeating their opponent. There were exactly 7 goals in the match and 6 of these goals were scored by Feyenoord. Feyenoord could have scored more goals in this match because we can say that they shot almost every 3 minutes. We can say that they will come to their senses with this match.
S. Rotterdam, on the other hand, defeated their opponent Heerenveen 3-1 away and took the lead for now. The hosts were the favorites and they didn't play badly, but they couldn't take advantage of the positions they found. If the hosts, who had more shots than Rotterdam, had capitalized on them, we could be talking about a different result.

Over the years, we've seen Ajax produce great football talents in their team and make good profits from their sales after few seasons with club. It was reported that Mohammed Kudus' transfer to West Ham almost asibe deal as that's why I think they  signed Middlesbrough forward as his replacement. The youngster I believe will make a good signing for the club

This round i think we have a really fun game to see, between Twente - Vitesse, both teams are gonna play seeking for the win, Twente comes to this match after a very bad lose for the european competition, and they are practically out after losing 5-1 against Fenerbache, it was on the paper the lose, but not this result losing 5-1 its a shame, so now they are gonna focus full on Eredivisie.

last season he managed to score 28 goals in 40 games, but we are talking about a league that is lower than the premier league so it is not safe to think that he could do equal or better in the Eredivisie, now looking at the price that ajax paid for having him, I think it was an exaggeration because Middlesbrough are not a great team and they have not done well when it comes to fighting to be in the premier league, that is, that player would not make them reach the premier league and I also very much doubt it that there were many teams running after him, so I think that ajax should have negotiated more to buy him for a much lower price.

about ajax's attack, well, ajax is still unstable in attack, if we look at their last 5 games, we'll see that they managed to score goals in 4 games, but the problem is that they in some games against strong teams don't score many goals, I give an example of their game against dortmund, it was a friendly game but it also served to see that they still need another good striker, but I also agree that they need one or two defenders, in the last 5 games ajax suffered goal in all games, even in their game they played yesterday, missing the europa league game they conceded 1 goal, despite having managed to score 4 goals and win the game

  even so it shows that there is a lot that needs to be improved in the defense of ajax, even in the league games in 2 games they have already conceded 3 goals and they were games against teams that are not very strong, so I wonder if they do not improve in defense , will they be champions this season? I still have a lot of doubts about that, ajax's next game in the league will be against furtuna, which is a team that hasn't lost in the 2 games it played in the league, it will be interesting to see how ajax will do in this game

Ajax have signed a new striker, the Nigerian-born Englishman is to come from Middlesbrough for 12.3 million. He was the top scorer last year, but I think Ajax have always had a problem defensively rather than offensively in recent years?

He couldn't make it in the Arsenal youth team, but maybe he'll have his big breakthrough now at Ajax. I think the sum is a bit high, but maybe the striker is worth the money.

PSV seems like the real contender and number 1 favorite for me, they have everything, an excellent coach, some big names in the squad, and they play well in team. We see already in europe they destroy Sturm Graz, i know Sturm its a weak team compared to PSV, but still a team who always play in europe and make difficult games, and PSV wipe out them.

Today against Rangers we can see some confirmation of this or not.

Ajax is also only at the beginning of a difficult season, and by the standards of Ajax and their fans, last season was a very disappointing season. But if Ajax have several such slip-ups at the beginning of the new season, they could quickly lose touch with the top.

We'll see how Ajax perform in 2 days against Ludogorets Razgrad.

I only have the Dirk Kuyt-led team to compare from my short history of Eredivisie and I think it's far too early to call shots but I'm also getting the nagging feeling that Feyenoord will not only come short in the league but crash out of early UCL -- and that's not even considering Ajax.

Waalwijk, that's who we all gotta watch out for now eh? But no, seriously PSV, plus a god run for them in Europa? About time the Amsterdammer-Rotterdammer nonsense gets pushed aside heh heh.

Yeah i know this sound too early to claim what i claim, but im not only seeing this two games as a base of my analisis, and i know thisc an sound weird or strange, but for me historically facts are important, and always Feyenoord strug so much after become the champion.

From someone seeing from a far position this league, I find it normal to see AZ Alkmaar and PSV Eindhoven in the top of the table. Ajax missed points after a draw, well this could occur to any team. For Feyenoord, 0 points after 2 matches is worrying. They even lost Johan Cruijff Shield vs PSV Eindhoven although finished the first in the last season with only two defeats..

Maybe it's a bit too early to draw conclusion just after 2 rounds? Especially considering that they dropped points in Rotterdam derby - game which isn't easy usually. Here in my country it's popular to say that defending trophy is more difficult than winning it and probably it's true that Feyenoord isn't main favorite to win it again.
After 2 rounds 4 teams have perfect score - AZ, Twente, PSV and Heerenveen.

Well yesterday we have the tie of Ajax, and today another tie of Feyenoord, refered to Ajax i see the yesterday team , and man, this its not looking good for them, i dont see a better team than last year, about Feyenoord i already said this year they are gonna not fight for anything, they always after became the champion make a bad season, i dont know why.

of course it is too early to write Ajax off for title chase, league just started, and draws as this one can happen to everyone
what does not look good is that Ajax is conceiving goals easily
even two converted chances into goal would be enough, if they didn't conceived, but they did

it does look as we are looking into really interesting season for Ajax, can't wait to see them in Europe too

Well Ajax have failed to claim another 3points giving PSV the lead against them in the table they’ve had a win and a draw so far making them to be 2nd place in the table and i think it's too early to write them off yet because the league just started and they have enough time to close the gap, all they need is a good win in their next match amd the ones after, their performance today was quite impressive, they had 15 shots and 8 were on target which means they missed lots of chaces in getting more goals and would had won if they converted one more chance into a goal, and also 69% ball possession im the match means they dominated more but where so unlucky to concede 2 goals.
 PSV on the other hand have had fine wins in their previous 2 games, 2 - 0 at home against Utrecht and a 1- 3 away today, what made me happy was that i predicted them to win today and they did and even performed more than i expected, they'll definitely be top contender of the Eredivisie league and would be a serious competition for Ajax this season.

Didn't  watched any of Eredivisie games today, so, a bit difficult to comment. But Ajax dropping points in 2nd round already is big surprise. After all, Excelsior isn't that team which should cause lot of problems for team like Ajax. But Ajax now is one of youngest teams in league, I think they need some time until they will start showing stable results.
Meanwhile PSV achieved win against Vitesse, team which usually gives good fight for leaders, especially at home.
Tomorrow we have Rotterdam derby between Sparta and Feyenoord, should be interesting.

the results of yesterday's games had at least one result that surprised me, which was the result of the game between ajax and excelsior, in this game ajax were the first to score a goal, but then they conceded a goal and the game was tied, and the ajax conceded again and with that excelsior was in advantage, ajax had to make an effort to score a goal and draw the game, and ajax managed to do that, but ajax could not score another goal to leave this game with victory and as a result ajax risked having two games 1 win and 1 draw, they had 4 points, while one of their main opponents PSV who played against vitesse had no difficulties in winning the game, it was a game in which the PSV scored 3 goals and conceded 1 and had the most ball possession. they dominated the game, to be honest I see PSV as being a strong candidate to win the league

heracles won in their game against NEC in a game where NEC was winning the game but how heracles managed to reverse this bad scenario by having managed to score 2 goals and win the game. Go head eagles played against volendam and won the game, it was a game where Go head eagles destroyed volendam, they scored 4 goals and conceded only 1 goal, an interesting fact and that Go head eagles was left with only 10 players just after 45 minutes of the 1st half but even so they managed to win the game, their performance was quite incredible. tomorrow will play feyenoord who will play against sparta rotterda, in this game i see that it will be a very difficult game for feyenoord, probably they can suffer another draw. the season is not off to a good start for feyenoord
