All I want to say is Ajax is the third best football school
after River Plate
and Red Star
I mean these two have no competition.
Well u have a good point. About red star- theyre not the only team that produces hot prospects in their league. And River plate have the advantage of south american players that are born with balls at their feet. ie the south american footballism culture makes it easy to find young players over there
Holland doesnt have that addiction though. Their youth academy is based on their highly professional and unique style of training and treatment of players.
Thats why it is rumoured that their players act very professional and have a strict code of conduct- most of them anyways.
Not to mention Davids, who is rumoured to have walked out on a conference when a cellphone rung.
