    maybe the under 18 coach ADAM ASGHAR and
    Chris McCart, please take a look at how Ajax and other europe teams set up their youth teams and maybe we can produce some good young players to play in the first team and yes then maybe sell on for a fee

    And Forrest at his current level isn't good enough. That's the worst of it.

    He's tidy on the ball but there's almost no threat from him now.

    That list would be hilarious if we didn’t start our league campaign a week on Sunday.

    Didn’t get carried away over sporting Lisbon or Newcastle, no getting carried away with this, Ajax just stepped up a gear and destroyed us second half, definitely need good signings in next few weeks

    It's a pretty season friendly so I won't get to worked up about (similar to how I wasn't going overboard at Newcastle) but if any game showed us how atrocious our squad depth is, its tonight.

    A good first half, an abysmal second half.

    So many players not up to it, do we really need to wait until Rangers win the league again before we decide to kick on?

    Good first half, although Ajax looked to never get out of first gear.

    Second half has exposed a clear gap in quality. Forget about being competitive in the Champions League with Idah, Kenny, Yang, Forrest, Bernardo, etc. The Kuhn and Kyogo money desperately needs to be reinvested.

    It's actually disgraceful reading those names there.

    And some will still defend it.

    Ended that with a front 3 of Kenny, Tilio and Forrest.

    Any chance, Celtic?

    Can't believe the money we spent on engels... Such an underwhelming footballer.

    We need two new strikers a better midfield and a steady CB.

    Also Casper is quite slow? Why is he reaching the ball with one hand?

    Second half was horrendous, got to about an hour and just collapsed. Played well first half but you canny be caving in like that.

    Hopefully has a positive effect on the players going into the season proper,and new additions can give us a spark again.

    That 2nd half was very poor.

    Inamura looked like a centre half playing left back tonight. Took up weird positions, clearly has loads to learn (as expected)
