ESPN’s analysts are not exactly impressed with Ajax. Kees Kwakman and Kenneth Perez saw the team from Amsterdam draw with difficulty against Olympique Marseille on Thursday evening and expect that Feyenoord will be able to take advantage of the vulnerabilities in coach Maurice Steijn’s team on Sunday in De Klassieker.
“It seemed as if Ajax had it under control a little better in the second half, but after that 3-2 you felt that the 3-3 was in the air,” Kwakman began. “They find it so difficult when the opponent starts wandering a bit. Sosa in particular had difficulty finding his role defensively on the left side. Then you also have to deal with communication, which is just not going well yet. I think Ajax will ultimately can be happy with a point.”

“Marseille had agile players who were good between the lines,” the analyst continued. “Ajax was not yet able to cope with that. Then you have to worry about how things will go against Feyenoord.” Kenneth Perez also saw defensive vulnerabilities at Ajax. “If you press so poorly and lose the ball, it is not surprising that an opponent scores so many goals. I think Ajax leaves the field with a good feeling. Scored three goals, we fought. The supporters saw some of their own youth …”
According to Perez, Ajax currently lacks the correct coordination. “It is not illogical, but the right hand does not know what the left hand is going to do. And individually Ajax is not good enough to compensate for that. There is constant doubt. Feyenoord is tactical and much better as a team, they are going completely short here.” get rid of it?”
