Countless fans, media outlets and ex-players have given their opinion about the current situation, but hardly ever with a long-term plan in mind. Objectively and realistically, how would you describe the problem and what steps does the club have to take to get back to an acceptable state?

Discussion

Just curious because I feel like 99% of assessments never get past blank statements like "fire person X", "change the line-up to...", "bring back person x and y". The club has been in massive disarray for well over a year now on multiple levels. Three head coaches, multiple DOF's, new members on the board, key players leaving the club due to dissatisfaction, hundreds of millions spend on players, etc.

It's clear to everyone that there is a huge problem somewhere, but nobody is really ever discussing the bigger picture. Instead individuals often get the blame and so the cycle continues.

I don't have the answer either, but I'm hoping to discuss some in this post. Of course we are only fans

What would be your reaction if El Ghazi signed for Ajax? To me personally, it makes zero sense why we haven't yet.

My reasoning:

  • They desperately wanted to add a Dutch player who is familiar with Ajax. This could also help Steijn in this whole project of trying to build a new collective. Not to mention El Ghazi himself could be a key figure in helping some of the new attackers settle.

  • The team right now is full of new players and different nationalities -> adding a player who would slot right in could really help for our results in the short term.

  • Right wing is a weak position atm.

  • El Ghazi isn't a terrible player. He got quite a few goals last season and has Premier League experience.

Do you agree or disagree? What would be your reasoning? I'm really curious because I'm quite baffled by
