South American connection

We may have found something here...it makes perfect sense...Suarez and Cvitanich...duh! On a day that Ajax said goodbye to its former #1 striker with fireworks and speeches, it was the two young South American stars that stole the show and created some fireworks of their own. The Argentinian and Uruguayan combined to score all 3 goals (all scored by Dario) Sunday at the Arena. What a day it was for Cvitanich, when the pressure of replacing a player like KJH must have felt stronger than ever. He showed the ArenA crowd that perhaps Danny Blind was right when he stated that Ajax already had KJH's replacement. Luis Suarez had a huge match as well, and showed that not only is he really great at flopping in the box and dribbling circles around people, he can also play the role of set up man, assisting on all 3 goals. Ajax are the hottest team in the Eredivise right now, which is great...hopefully the winter break won't slow down the momentum they have built up. The boys have 2 weeks off until they travel to Portugal for a friendly with Bundesliga #10 VfB Stuttgart. Stay focused guys.

Happy New Year!

And does this mean our scouts are a step ahead of the rest of the eredivisie again? We beat everybody else to Dario, like we didn't with Suarez. I like it. Who's next?
