Babel needs to improve much bcoz he looks somewhat disappointing during the course of the match but he can surprise the defenders with his great run n sooting skill. Drenthe looks impressive n he is the future. got great pace good mentalilty n good physiccal stregth i havent watched much of these yong players who play in dutch league.

A real community blog. I did miss out on some real talents there. Marcellis... Waterman... Sorry for that :-). That kid Van Velzen I think is a son of a Dutch dad and Suriname mum I suppose. I don't know a lot about him but spotted this clip on YouTube. Well done folks! A real community blog. I did miss out on some real talents there. Marcellis… Waterman… Sorry for that :-) .

Sarpong gets a couple of games at Ajax first team latey, lot's of praise for him in the latest 2nd leg playoff match report against Heerenveen. Too bad Krul's been injuried for months, would like to see him at Olympics, although he won't play anyways. Really hope to see Goossens playing for Ajax first team next season, I think Van Basten kind of like him too. Marco once invited him and Anita to train with the national team.
