I got Aguero! £20m!

Huntelaar gone to Liverpool for £32m
They also bought Skjelbred off me for £5m + 50%
As well as Babel the season before for £11m

I am in fact using wingers. I can't say why you think I don't. Both of my wingers have as long arrows as possible. I agree that my tactic might not be a perfect copy of the Ajax system, but that was never my intention in the first place. What I meant about good, old Ajax philosophy was to make a firm ground in the team of mostly homegrown players.

When it comes to De Zeeuw, I believe that you're a bit unfair with him. I agree that he isn't the next Messias or something, but he is a good player for me. I am going to replace him, as I too reckon he is not top-notch, even though his performances are appr. 7,40, which I think is good. He was also chosen to the Dutch international squad in EURO2008, and he has been a Dutch regular for quite a long time now. But as I told you I already have a Mexican regen in my youth side, who I believe will be able to take his place in just a few months.

I am not a big fan of Huntelaar, but aguerro and Huntelaar are 2 totaly differnt kinds of players! so you need a good Target man with him! i would suggest Gert-Jan Tamerus (Excellent header & Jumper)!

2bad you sold babel, just turned into a wonderkid in my game (2nd season)!


I am Dutch and i have been a fan of ajax all my life! iwatch football as much as possible! so i think i know a little about who are good in holland and good enough for Ajax!!

i couldnt see the farrows! so thats why, but imho thats not the best way to use your wingers, because they will be tired much faster and will get injurys much faster!

This discussion seems to get nowhere... But I have in fact won the league twice in two season, one cup trophy and I'm so far undefeated in the middle of the third season, so I'm not completely lost. And I would like to add - for the third time - that it is not my goal to copy Ajax in all possible ways, maybe except from their youth deveoping. As for De Zeeuw I have repeatedly said that I will replace him, though I'm thinking of keeping him just to prove to everyone that he's a decent player! :p

I think the point of posting here is to get an reaction right??

an interesting thread to discuss each individual approach to playing as Ajax.

it's nice to see other people's ideas, etc

if we all did the same then there wouldn't be anything to discuss

MrTriple

Correct stanthecaddy. And while one may want to stick to 433 (Ajax's 'holy' system for years, not as holy anymore nowadays for them though), another might see things differently and will opt for a straight no-nonsense 442. And best of all: both of them might succeed.

There's no 'ultimate-all-winning' system. There are simply too many variables. And I thank SI Games from the bottom of my heart for it - otherwise you'd be playing this game till you found out 'that system' and it wouldn't be any fun anymore now would it?

Yeah Mannn

Thinking of starting a game as Ajax, after i signed to many [players on my man united game and ruined it. What's the score with foriegn players in holland? Certain amount, or WP's?
