Anyone got a GIF of that fantastic run and piece of play when he shot into the side netting? Rooney-Klaassen-DCL-Klaassen

That's the kind of thing I expect to happen much more frequently when everyone gets used to each other.

Just Kongolo & Karsdorp I think.
You can buy Ajax captains for that price though. Recently Vertonghen (9 mil € + add-ons), Alderweireld (occasional captain 8 mil. €)
I think they recieved a lot more for Vertongen, Alderweireld and Vermaelen. You can only take Veltman for that price but he isn't good enough. If you want a player like Dolberg you'll have to pay 40mil. They don't need the money.
Passing soon after he gets it.
You never heard of "La Pausa"?
The best playmakers all had/have that: the ability to hold and hold until the movement ahead is in place for the killer pass.
To do that you have to be able to screen and/or ride a challenge to maintain possession. Klaassen hasn't got it.

@orly is WUM'ing. He has decided to give Martina the benefit of the doubt but have a go at Klaassen from day one. It's as transparent a wind-up as you will ever see and some others have got that and are playing along and others have been swept up in the nonsense.I don't think anyone is knocking this signing. @orly has been one of the most negative but I think he's waiting to 'see something' from Klaassen as at the moment we've seen a couple of passes and then runs towards the box which James McCarthy could have done.
I've seen this boy play a fair amount for Ajax and to be honest it's going to take a lot to step up to the league where he will get no time and no space. Also, playing with Gana and Schneiderlin he wont be the one to act as a creative outlet. Klaassen is just a team player who will play short quick passes to team mates and make runs into the box...he's not a 'wow' type player.
I'd have preferred Tielemans or someone who could have been our 'wow' type player...
Ajax always need the money.
I agree. Prices right now are determined by the market at points in time.
Btw I think your name means "nothing is the best" !! Nisi means "but". Lol

I agree with you. I think Klassen will be a good signing for usIt's intentional dropping the Nisi, mainly because of gaming tags and character size, it's used across many platforms and forums so I have continued using. 10 games league in we should see Klasssen to start to adjust.
Honestly don't think we need or even want a 'wow' type player. Barkley was a 'wow' type player. Unfortunately most weeks it was 'wow, he did nothing today'.
I think the aim is a team of players that all put a shift in, are consistent and an array of forward players who are productive in the final third. We are on the way to that.
