Comments on: The Odd Tumble of the Eredivisie http://www.theoffside.com/world-football/the-odd-tumble-of-the-eredivisie.html League Football, Soccer News and Views from Around the World Mon, 13 Feb 2012 08:57:06 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.8.4 hourly 1 By: Flippy http://www.theoffside.com/world-football/the-odd-tumble-of-the-eredivisie.html/comment-page-1#comment-140759 Flippy Thu, 19 Feb 2009 22:17:26 +0000 http://www.theoffside.com/world-football/the-odd-tumble-of-the-eredivisie.html#comment-140759 Matt, it is not AZ winning the title, but how their challengers are losing it. AZ deserve the title this season from their play, but Ajax, PSV, and Feyenoord should not lose in just a fashion. Ajax (except Suarez) is not cutting it, nor is PSV (except Afellay), and Feyenoord is injury stricken. It would be a good thing if AZ became CL challengers, but Ajax, PSV, and Feyenoord should not stop becoming Eridivisie, Uefa Cup (Europa League), and CL challengers. It's like Barca, Madrid, and Valencia not challenging for titles and Sevilla winning La Liga and challenging for CL or Milan, Inter, Juve, Roma all becoming sub-par and Florentina becoming Serie A champions and CL contenders, or Aston Villa winning the Premier League after the Big 4 started playing abysmally. Even if Sevilla, Florentina, and Aston Villa played beautiful, the leagues would still be tumbling. Thankfully (Hopefully), the Big 3 teams will recover and return to glory. Hup Holland!

It is too perfect. As for the article, is AZ winning a title with football superior to that of Ajax and PSV a bad thing? I guess if you only want to watch something important (ie, something ManCity will pay hundreds of millions to buy), then look elsewhere than the eredivisie. But it is decent enough football, and you don't need to worry about Platini wrecking it anytime soon. I cannot see that picture enough. It is too perfect.
