  • 1-0 win by ajax maybe 2-0 Farioli playes save

  • Whoever writes for the Dutch league, thank you for putting in the effort, however, simply noting the top scorers and how many wins/losses each team has recently isn't very helpful. This was exactly what you did the whole of last season for every game.. Some more detailed analysis please :) new exciting players? New managers? Injuries?
