I agree on Maartens, but honestly a big part of the problem is a lot of our team are just kids. Clasie is 34, Mijnans and DeWitt are 25, After that its all 19-23 and being consistent at that young age a big step.
Again, I love our midfied and even the back lline now but the front 3 are lacking in this consistency. I don't know if Maartens can make much difference
Agree wth most of the comments here--pretty weak and inconsistent effort. There was no need to run uo the score but like the NAC game we just got it done.
I'm not the coach but it looks to me like a lot of people here see as well,
1- Daal is flagging and perhaps start Jensen against Feyenoord.
2-Patati is right now in over his head-I have all the confidence he will come around but we need to win now---back to Sadiq please for now
3-Meerdink missed a break away--I could have scored and I'm not ki...
Irish trainer said today that he doesn't expect Troy P even for the Oct international break--not good--thats a long time
We have a solid bunch now if we stick with Mijnans and Smit and Clasie
and its
Meerdink time--now definitely needed -lets hope he comes through
Any word on Maykuma?
It's very early and this is an excellent review so far. Again--my opinion only after watching a lot of games from th top clubs
1-PSV--looked mediocre last Saturday but hard to bet against them
2-AZ--we have enough talent to make a great run this year--stupid point loss in Volendam but we have depth on th bench this year
3-Feyenoord--not completely convinced as they have played a lot of bad teams--but definitely quality
4- Utrecht--lets see when they play someone besides the bottom 3
We have a solid team if both Mijnans and Smit are out there--add Parrott and we have a possibly champion team--
I thought it was a bad break on the penalty and the ref was trying to even things up--he wasn't terrible--he was the making plays and leading the offense--again in my opinion
Meerdink was our worst player
Sadiq was our best
Sin was a good surprise
Patati tried to do too much on his own
Lets avoid Fiorentina and Crystal P-or at least get them at home
-pot 4-5-6 --hopeless
with a little luck we could win this
Love the easy wins--2-0 after 5 minutes we were betterin all parts of the game and they were not ready so we jumped them--Glad to se Zeefuik get on and score a pretty goal
You could see him getting better almost every game last year and when the Tott anouncers who knew him from their youth club said he is AZ most effective player in their Euro games it made me stop to watch him closely--and yes he is a large difference maker especially now when every time he gets a chance he scores--this is one large change-large $$$$$$ change
we miss Mijnans--the 1st half was a dull dull boring 45 minutes--Smit is getting better every game--easy next week but lets not play too many subs
Zot also looked like crap a couple of games ago--so there is doubt but I agree here---it should be an easy win
I like the idea for the lineup and lets start Jensen and see if he can get the job done. We don't need a bg win, so having 2 strikers isn't needed---unless they try a 4-4-2
Got to get over it folks--RJOO had a bad game--2 BAD PLAYS = 2 GOALS FOR THEM
and honestly Meerdink for Mijnans is a step down-we need another midfielder---Sin is coming but-I would have tried Kwakman--Meerdink is a striker not really a playmaker
we win easily tomorrow unless we pick up a red card somehow--probably the same lineup as against Groningen---0-2 or 0-3
All AZ lovers---- we have a good team now and should get better on Aug-28--and as long as we don't lose any of our key players (Clasie-Goes-Penetra-Smit-Parott-Mijnans) we can beat any Eredivisie squad except maybe PSV
Fair enough on Kist being our all time scorer---but there is a strong love of Meerdink in every post even from him and IMO he is still a long way away from being our striker especially since we have Troy P-
-Kist played in a different world--different game--different reality--he is esteemed but so are all the greats of the PAST--the only constant is change and if you don't change--well you are left behind
-been an AZ fan since 2003 and honestly the team this year looks like we could win it if we hold...
it makes no sense to grade the team--we lost a man after 7 minutes and had to make sure we didn't give up 3 goals against a KKD team--it wasn't a real game
Het heeft geen zin om het team te beoordelen. We verloren na 7 minuten een man en moesten ervoor zorgen dat we geen 3 doelpunten tegen kregen tegen een KKD-team. Het was geen echte wedstrijd.
I got us winning by 2 --well my bet does--I figure another blowout
The people on this blog get it because we watch AZ closely--K. Kist does not ------he wants controversy
Meerdink is an up and comer--as long as we have Parrot we play Parrot first but like I said Parrot will be gone very soon--hopefully he stays until Xmas
Zoet was awful--hit a guy that almost went into his net--gave up a real softy after he miss timed his lunge--got very lucky when he jumped the wrong way and it hit his leg and then the iron
Parrot just added another $5 mil to his price tag--now at about $25M
Kassius has improved a lot and overall we looked solid except in the goal
Poku wants to leave--there is nothing AZ can do about this--he will leave--no one to blame and just move on and get as much $$$ as possible
I really like the earlier comment about keeping Lahdo around--I feel he is better than Poku but his injuries made him unreliable
Shows what Clasie brings instead of Koop.
Vaduz started running out of gas in the 2nd half--we should have had more but 3-0 will carry us to the next round
Parrot is definitely gone by Sept--he is turning into a top striker--we should get $25 mil
Lets see what things look like against Gronigen
Their last home defeat in European competition was against Aston Villa, who defeated AZ 4-1 on October 26, 2023.
Last time I was there as well-lousy timing
Here in Canada the odds on the AZ-Vaduz game---
1.01--bet $100 on AZ--collect $101---$1 lousy dollar--pretty sad
last game against IIves was 115
if you took Az to lead both 1st and 2nd half---1.40---easy money
