Eredivisie 23/24 - discussion thread

[kro55]

There are only two weeks left for the new season to start. Ajax and PSV are already the biggest candidates for the league title. Ajax are still one step ahead of their opponent as well. I'm saying this by taking the quality of their squads into account of course. It is going to depend on the performances to decide which side is better. Ajax have had a domination in the league for some years and PSV would like to do their best to put an end to it. I hope to see another close fight.

In the Eredivisie league, we see the dominance of Ajax and PSV every season. Basically these two teams fight for the title. And all the rest of the teams lag behind. But I am not sure if Ajax can maintain their stability next season. They are selling some of their key players. So I think Ajax's performance will not be stable at the beginning of the season. If PSV can maintain consistency they will be able to stay at the top of the points table.

Ajax are on a buying spree after a very successful transfer season with a total of 110 million, I don't think Ajax have ever put so much money in their hands, with a total of 85 million.

With the last four players mentioned, I think very interesting young players are joining Ajax.

Ajax are on a buying spree after a very successful transfer season

-snip

they are probably have big ambitions in CL this season, this amount of money can hardly be explained by domestic competition only
and as well, with all these new players, other teams (PSV included), will have hard time to catch up with Ajax and fight for the title

maybe this could also put Ere divisie in front of Primeira Portugal division on UEFA list, although Benfica, Porto and Sporting are solid every season in European competitions

ajax has made good investments in players and I hope they can reap good results this season. last season they managed to score a lot of goals, but i wonder if history will repeat itself. tomorrow they have a friendly match against shakhtar donetsk, despite it being a friendly match in this game we can have another idea of how ajax will be this season, last season ajax managed to score 98 goals in 34 games, that is an incredible average of goals

they in the champions league have no chance of winning, I say that because in the next season in the champions league we will have strong teams like PSG, real madrid, barcelona, liverpool and manchester Ciy as candidates to win the champions league and I doubt that there is another team in addition to these 4 that win the champions league next season. but they can go very far in the champions league

Ajax win easily 3-1, even Shakhtar Donetsk create a surprise goal in 1st half, Tadic immediately equalized the score in minute 45. I do not understand the Ajax squad, but seem like they turn on the full team and create 2 last goals by steven and kudus. a factor winning One of which is Ajax play at home, so they don't have problems so much. This is 4th winning in prematch, they don't have a strong opponent so far, even lost versus Paderborn 2-5.

agree, i did not said that they will win CL, it would a biggest surprises in last decade if they do, but they could reach QF or SF on a good draw
nevertheless, I do think that Bayern is missing on your list, and PSG will not reach SF or further probably

not sure about Barca either, but it is off-topic already

but reaching 100 goals in Ere should be duable for Ajax this season

Today was the match of the Johan Cruyf scale between national champion Ajax and cup winner PSV. Ajax quickly scored the 1-0, but after that it became 1-1 and before half-time it was still 1-2 ahead of PSV. In the end, the match ended in 3-5 and that is a major setback for Ajax, who had expected to win this match. But that is not a harbinger for the competition, because last year PSV won 0-4 and Ajax became champion.

Really an amazing derby and super cup. The match was just lit,too bad for the Ajax goalkeeper that made so many mistakes in the match but we will have an intresting league and maybe PSV can surprise and win the league aswell this season.

that result is very surprised me because Ajax is very favorite for Johan Cruyff's title. Guus Til is enough to overwhelm Ajax, I don't know how they are is very underestimated him?, Besides that player, my eye also focused on a bench, where I see Ex Mu and Madrid players, the top scorer in Champions League, Ruud van Nistelrooy, I just know him as PSV coach for this session which I think is suitable for PSV.

[Zackgeno96]

Ajax was also favorite to win the match. It ended up being 3-5, in fairness it must be said that Ajax completely outplayed PSV in the first half hour but failed to score any goals. PSV scored 2 goals from kind of dead game moments. PSV was much more effective with the opportunities they got. This will not feel good for Ajax, not just a price loss, but with a new trainer you want to start the football season optimally and not lose 3-5 to your biggest competitor. Still, I think Ajax is still the big favorite to win the title in the competition.

Ajax lost many players and a brilliant coach for this session which I think hard to get back the tittle. Maybe they will continue it to Martinez, and make their defenns more weaker. Beside that, PSV is look more stronger and confidence with the squad now, they have Guus Til, a player who create a first hat trick which I thing he will continue to make trouble the opponent, especially Ajax. So, I will choose PSV again and hope I'm not wrong club again for this time.

agree that Ajax was favorite to win this one, but match got out of control, and PSV scored almost all shots on target (5 in from 7 shots)

sure, this one hurts them, and could even push them back for first part of the season, but they seem as favorites to win the title, no matter this

PSV got one trophy already, congrats

It's true that Ajax had big departures and now have to get back on track, but that can't be an excuse, plus the game was closer than the result suggests, but congratulations to PSV.

This weekend the Eredivisie starts, my favourite is Ajax again this year, even after the departures, they have strengthened themselves well and will be favourites again when they are rehearsed. Ajax have no exhausting qualification matches in the Champions league at the moment because they qualified directly for the group stage and can concentrate fully.

I consider PSV as favorites to win the Eredivisie title next season. Ajax is a strong and renowned team. But they have lost a lot this season. They lost almost all the key players on the team. This season they will have to rely on new players. And so we might not get a consistent performance from Ajax this season. If PSV can perform somewhat consistently, PSV's title win is almost certain.

Let's see them vs Fortuna Sittard, Ajax always wins 7 games in head to head, The last match, Ajax created a big winning 5 goals without reply. So I think, Ajax shouldn't have a problem winning the opening match when look on privious match.

I hope also, not PSV only but another club might have consistently broken Ajax domination and make Eredivisie more competitive than before.

The statistics are clearly in favour of Ajax, normally it should be no problem for Ajax to win away at Fortuna Sittard. But let's wait and see, Ajax might have a hard time, but they don't seem to have forgotten how to score goals.

I hope also, not PSV only but another club might have consistently broken Ajax domination and make Eredivisie more competitive than before.

I think everyone hopes that at least 3 teams can compete for the title this year, but unfortunately it will probably be a fight between PSV and Ajax again, even though I wish Feyenoord can keep up, but it will be difficult.

will be probably a two-way, between Ajax and PSV, I do not see Feyenoord in that fight, but let us follow the season

Ajax certainly did not forget to score goals (they scored 3 against PSV), but needs to improve defense, since they conceived five

what was the last time to see two Super Cup matches finished 3:5 same weekend, as last weekend Netherlands and Germany, probably once in a life time

[Distraction]

The season is finally about to start. Ajax have dominated the league in the recent few years and we will see if there will be any change by this season. PSV have made a really good progress recently in fact. However they still need to become even more competitive against Ajax to have a more serious chance for the league title. Ajax have sold some important players maybe but I don't think this would affect them deeply though. They have new signings also and this can help them keep their strength.

Last time was the season 17/18 when PSV was able to mage 83 points. It is pretty safe to say that is the least number of points if you want to have a chance against Ajax. They have been scoring in the mid 80s range for years. I must admit though that I literally don't know about a single player that they now newly signed. It is most likely going to be another close season between the two clubs. Maybe Feyenoord and Alkmaar can keep up with them though. I am wondering that it is so often said that Götze is a big loss for PSV. He has hardly performed convincingly ever since he scored his goal at the 2014 World Cup...

[CLS63]

PSV were significantly close to Ajax last season indeed. It was one of the best shots they had for the championship but they failed still. For this season it is difficult to comment on this topic for now. Because we haven't watched PSV and Ajax both in any league match. After we leave some weeks behind we would have some clearer opinions. For now I can say that Ajax are once again the biggest candidate for becoming the champions. PSV will need to make a big difference to put an end to Ajax's streak.
