Eredivisie 23/24 - discussion thread

[Koal-84]

Possibly Ajax not only won the title but Ajax fans could well have set a new beer record in the stadium 🤣🤣.

Only in the stadium at the home victory 65000 beers were drunk (according to the article to 65 cl each?) that would be about 45,000 liters of beer, remarkable since not everyone drinks beer 😁, then cheers 🍺

Based on the points and especially the goal difference, you would say that Ajax has simply become champion. However, that is not the case at all. They have scored 5 times of the last 10 matches after the 85th minute and have therefore won all those matches and drawn 1x. Normally, things like that didn't happen, and PSV would now have become champion. But if doesn't count in the football world. Ajax has by far the strongest selection, but rest assured that many people will leave Ajax. Feyenoord has also positively surprised with their displayed game.

Ajax has locked the Eredivisie title after beating 5-0 Heerenveen last week ago. The different goals don't need to watch if the different point is 4, so so this is indisputable, Ajax is the Champions. For this year, Ajax is enough to be bothered with PSV's performance at the beginning, I don't know why PSV is going slowly down after, maybe they just focusing on EUFA Conference Cup, but after losing, they still don't repair the performance. But, we don't need to repent, PSV has the KNVB cup which I think will be a treatment happy for Fans.

So, Eredivisie 21/21 season come to the end today. There was enough surprises in final round. Ajax only in last minutes managed to achieve 2:2 draw with Vitesse. Walwiijk quite unexpected won against AZ away. Feyenoord at home lost to Twente 1:2.
If we already knew exact positions of top 4 teams, now we also know which teams will fight in playoffs for spot UEFA Conference League qualifiers. It's AZ, Vitesse, Utrecht and Herenveen.

yeah, I obviously expected for Ajax to reach 100 goals this season, but they came to 98 in the end
Vitesse did not want to surrender to new champions, and fought till the end, which brought them point and more confidence before Conference league play-off

looking at this season, Conference league is best suited for Ere divisie teams, they had four teams in R16, and Feyenoord is finalist

As I remember a long time ago, Eredivisie is one league who have many participant teams in the Champions League, at least 2 and 3. But now only have 1 club for eligible. When I look at the Champions League rank title, Eredivisie has 8 titles which are better than Portugal, Primeira League (4 titles), and France, Ligue 1 (1 title). So, when it will happen again? if Only 1 club very really affects the motivation of each club to grow up to the top table and also affects for Eredivisie market and broadcasting.

The match between vitesse and az Alkmaar was quite disappointing on the part of AZ. I was expecting that they will put in a good fight but all pointed to vitesse.
 Even if there is the possibility of coming back and turning the game around in the second leg, but then they lost the opportunity to get in the lead in the first leg.

I think they are evenly matches but Vitesse at home is a team that plays a lot better so im not surprised in this result at all.
Also expecting AZ to win in next match for sure and maybe take this match into overtime or penalties to decide the winner

Ajax are still continuing to become the champions in the Eredivisie. They are still on a title streak and it has increased to three now. However this time it wasn't easy for Ajax to reach the championship. Because there were another team to compete with them really good: PSV. Ajax finished the season only two points ahead of them. They declared their title a little before actually but PSV still did a great job until the last weeks. It is hard to make clear predictions about next season. Ajax lost their manager Erik ten Hag to Manchester United so maybe something might change for them. And we will see if there will be a team to benefit from a probable opportunity.

does not happen to often, but AZ smashed Vittese in Conference league play-off, and secured their Europe spot for next season
Vittese had 2:1 from first match, but three fast goals in first half solved all for both teams, and it was 6:1 for AZ in the end

so, with Twente, AZ will represent Ere in Conference league next season, could they make something similar to Feyenoord this season? doubt

Wasn't able to watch game because of F1. It was impossible to expect such humiliating score, but in general, AZ win is expected outcome. I'm sceptical about AZ and especially Twente chances to repeat Feyenoord performance. After all, Feyenoord have much better squad than these teams. Maybe AZ can go further in playoffs, but lot of things depends on draw. Now we already have Villarreal, West Ham, Fiorentina in competition and later teams dropping from Europa league, so, Dutch clubs won't be a favorites.

In the end he returned to where he came from.
He played really well at PSV and now he's back at his young age which is a good thing.
Reportedly Luuk de Jong has been in Eindhoven to undergo a medical and this means it is certain he will return. Hopefully he finds his form again in the Eredivisie as his touch is slowly disappearing in La Liga.

Ajax lost their coach plus their best striker and some other players already in this transfer window and i think if they dont react fast the next season might be really bad for them. PSV already getting some good transfers and for me now will be the main favorites and Ajax behind them. I think this is the chance for PSV to end the Ajax streak.

Ajax have lost some of their important players like Gravenberch, Mazraoui and Onana already. This can affect their performance but I don't expect it to be on a large scale at the same time. Ajax are still the dominant team of the Eredivisie even though last season ended very closely between them and PSV. Ajax have won the league title three times in a row recently and they would do their best to maintain the streak. I expect them to make the necessary transfers too while they are losing players. By the way Haller is also likely to join Dortmund.

They have and may lose many more players, apart from Haller going to Dortmund, there is also news that Antony will join Manchester United. Of course, this will affect their performance in the coming season.

But it seems we don't have to worry about their performance. Because Ajax can always look for new talents to play in their first team.

agree on this one, there are always new players from Ajax school, and they are selling top ones because they have new youngsters to replace them

eventually Ajax and PSV will again fight for the title, like every season, with Feyenoord there for first half to threat and then give up
last season saw were dominant roles by Ajax and PSV, but I think they will not be chasing 100 goals like previous one, will be more upsets during the season

[MAAManda]

Everyone has to agree with my statement regarding Ajax who can always get talented players. Ajax performance may be stable next season, but what about the title race? will PSV dominate? they only lost Goetze atm, while Ajax already lost some of their players.

The point you made here is understandable and I agree with you but you also need to consider certain things in football when your selling some of the players on your team.

1)  How long will it take the new players your bringing in to the team to adapt to your playing tactics
2)  Will the new players you intend bring to the team perform like the ones you sold?  I think as a club manager you need to consider these factors before selling out your good players.

Apart from the news that some young players are expected to join the Ajax team from the youth team am yet to see the Ajax manager attempting to sign more players to replace the ones that has sold. If the ajax coach fails to sign some quality players to the team that means PSV will be ahead of them in the title race and PSV may likely dominate them next season.

Another important for this is a coach. we know Ajax has a new coach for the next session, but we still don't know how Alfred Schreuder managed a big team like Ajax. When we look at his last career, he got success in the Belgian First Division A title in club Brugge, he was enough impressive. He is also not new in ajax, because he used to be an assistant coach for Ten Hag. And I thing PSV will be the same as before even with or without Goetze, and still the no.1 opponent.
