What is Ajax in shape?
The Dutch Master restarts the table again, only with a point in front of the PSV Eindhoven, but equal to a 20 hit better goal difference. Ajax, which lost surprisingly against Utrecht before the country break at home, has cashed in nine games only two goals and spotted a whopping 32. Alone the first three home games in the league ended 5: 0, 5: 0 and 9: 0.
Only in Enschede (1: 1) and just against Utrecht (0: 1) remained the fireworks, the dress rehearsal for the game against Dortmund ended with a little intoxicating 2: 0 victory in Heerenveen. Also in the Champions League, Ajax provided its class, gaining 5: 1 in Lisbon and last 2-0 against Besiktas.
What is the personnel situation?
Nearly perfect. Because André Onana continued to be locked (doping) and Maarten Stekelenburg was operated on the bar for weeks, the 37-year-old Remko Pasveer wake up the goal. Otherwise, coach Erik Ten Hag can almost scoop out of full. The last-stripped ex-Bremer Davy Claws is again fit, replacement man and newcomer Steven Berghuis made his cause so good that classes may have to stay on the bench. Then in turn, the dimensional Brazilian Antony is likely to act on the right wing.
Where does Ajax still have problems?
The team, which dominated the last three years in the Netherlands and provided in 2019 in the Champions League for a purse, was continuously strengthened and supplemented after the exceptions of Mathijs de Leig and Frenkie de Jong. What remains is the question of international competitiveness. The tasks against sporting and Besiktas has mastered Ajax with bravour, the first very big challenge is now waiting with the BVB. And in the Supercup against the PSV Amsterdam went 0: 4 bathing.
Which player is particularly focus?
Good in Form: Sebastien Haller and Dusan Tadic. Imago Images / Anp
Dusan Tadic is captain and head of the team and with eleven direct gate participations again the handlebar of the offensive. After his winter change in the preseason, Sebastien Haller, however, is getting better and better. The ex-Frankfurter introduces the Champions League scorer list with five hits - so often no player had been successful in his first two performances in this competition - and also comes in the league on six goals.
Nevertheless, criticism of Haller is always mixed, that he still outsourced too many opportunities. This even led to coaches hag for Utrecht, after the only Saison disconnected place to do so, to take care of the attacker. Normally it is one of his great strengths that he explains chances well. I am convinced that he will be decisive for us.
What does the coach say?
My players are looking forward to joining Haaland, said Ten Haag after victory in Heerenveen, but had obviously not asked his players. He is an extraordinary player, and we want to measure ourselves with the best. Davy Klaassen sees that different: Haaland can do something from anything, we have seen that in Norway in the game against the Netherlands. If I had the choice, it would rather be that he is not there.
