ajax 4 heerenveen1
from the first 60 minutes of the game, the only thought i had was: how could you tell me that we are staring at elimination from the champions' league? i don't know how we managed not to score at home against slavia prague.
our policy this season seems to be to score more goals than the opposition. people may rave about royston drenthe, but we have the original in urby emanuelson. that is a player whom you can say, when you play him, you have a left back and a left mid. like how they describe alves.
and in terms of scoring goals, we could do no wrong in holland. 12 goals in 2 games. and heerenveen, unlike de graafschap, are a good top 6 team. today, luis suarez lighted up the Arena with two goals. i do think they are right about him; he is destined for greatness.
what was disappointing was that after suarez scored his second, he was immediately subbed out for rommedahl. and after that, especially after kennedy came off for urzaiz, we let them into the game and basically stopped dominating. which makes me wonder, if the two players who come in are youngsters and your game suffers, then it is ok, because the result is more or less secured and you need to blood them. but if these two players are players whom you seem to want to have in your plans and this happens, it is not very encouraging. it is really wasted. rommedahl and urzaiz are at best back-ups. if suarez, kennedy and huntelaar play, they have no chance at all. and i don't think they are the most ideal replacements should the trio not play. maybe urzaiz can be a sub for huntelaar, because we don't really have someone else like him. but this also means that urzaiz isn't like him, so what's the point? the only thing is that maybe urzaiz is the only person who plays closest to huntelaar's position. but having said all these, i am totally unconvinced by these two. i would rather we play the youngsters.
5 years ago, i would be excited by luque's signing. but then, that was 5 years ago.
sometimes i really don't understand henk ten cate.
