(Ajax vs Inter Milan: Champions League Group G: Matchday 2)
Tuesday, 27th September 2011
06:41am
As my alarm clock sounds early on Tuesday morning I hit the snooze button, I barely slept at all.. I really needed to be on top of my game today, it was a big day...
(Later on that day)
I arrive at the training ground, exhausted from the lack of sleep I had last night, I gather up all the guys who at the time were all having a bit of fun, messing around in the pool.
I tell them to meet me in the office in 15 minutes as we were going to run over all the game's I had been able to get my hands on over the past couple of weeks of Inter's and show them exactly how we were going to beat them later that evening...
Hours from kickoff in the changing rooms, I sent Marc in to do the pre-match press conference, I wanted to be around my boys to try and calm any pre-game nerves that surface prior to kickoff, I could see that they were nervous, this was the first time...

"Mounir scored a special goal for us today, anyone in the world would be proud of that striker, taking on two defenders and the keeper and tucking it away in the bottom corner from inside his own half, you can't get much better than that, a great goal which proved to be the winner"

Sitting on my coach with a glass of scotch, paging through catalogues looking for the perfect ring, I reach into my pocket and grab my cell. I scroll down until I find Ralph. I hit the dial button, ring, ring, ring, he answers, "Hello Neil, how are you doing?" (its Candyce's dad) we spend the next several minutes talking until I pack up enough courage to ask for his daughters hand in marriage.... A sudden pause, the earth falls away beneath my feet, I can feel my heart beating in my head, I hear him clear his throat with a vicious cough, my heart sinks to the floor, "That would make me the happiest dad in the world" he replies shortly after...

Sitting at home, Smashing Pumpkins blazing in the background an email appears on the bottom of my screen with the subject line:
Official bid: Luuk De Jong
Upon opening, thinking it was a joke from one of my mates back home, I see very quickly it is not, it is from Liverpool Fc with an official bid for Luuk, they do mention they would like to keep this offer private as not to bring uneccassary press into the equation, I take a fairly large sip of my scotch, it burns my nostrils as it meanders its way down my throat.. I need to call Steven, its £27.2m...
what do you guys think?

But, then again, Luuk is young, and they hardly need more investment in the brilliant youth team.
NO DEAL.

Curse everyone else's enjoyment for selling!
I just don't enjoy selling, and he could become a key part of your squad in the future.

Accept it! Well, I would. That's a lot of cash. Also, good result there against Inter. Really enjoying the story. Keep it up!
Ok Neil lets check facts here.
You paid 7.5 million for him, that value has increased in 6 months to nearly 4 times that! You are a god at picking up youngsters think about the future you could build at Ajax selling him.
DEAL.
