Anybody know what a team like Ajax does with all of the funds they make off of runs like this and the sale of De Ligt and De Jong?



they invest it in their youth set up

scouts, training, facilites ect....

When it went to review, I was positive the Juve would get a penalty. I have a parlay working with Ajax, so I was shitting bricks.

Straight into the youth academy.

They have to makeup for the lack of EPL TV and government backed funding that the big La Liga teams get.

It's what, the second biggest match in ya'lls history?


Since the takeover, yes.

I’d put QPR and the win over Blackburn for promotion back in 2000 above it still.

Could maybe put our semi-final matches up there against Madrid a couple of years back, but I don’t think anyone really gave us a chance — including City fans.

Juve lost to SPAL over the weekend.

I thought, well they were just focusing on Ajax. Still got beat.

Wouldn't have mattered anyway due to away goals

nvm: just realized you're likely playing the match and not the advance

Hell no

If we fall out of UCL tomorrow I think we take the FA and the league.

If we advance then it is anyone's guess. That'd be another week or two of SERIOUS fixture congestion though and at this point we basically have to win every single remaining game.

Meh, they've shown nothing in the past that they're up for it in the Champions league.

They got shite stomped by us last year without VvD and Becker and they're down 1-0 to Spurs already.

As opposed to if you were a Man City fan?
