Wesley Sneijder finds it bizarre that Ajax players keep appearing so positive in front of the cameras when the result gives no reason for this. According to the record international, things could be a little more critical among the people of Amsterdam. Sneijder wonders whether the players will still put each other in their place in the locker room after the match.
Sneijder criticizes positive Ajax performances during interviews
Jordan Henderson was relatively mild after the 1-3 defeat against Lazio. That surprised Youri Mulder, the bee Ziggo Sports had a different view of the match. “No, I see it less positively. Somehow you understand that such a player would do this after such a match. I think they will do it differently internally. We are not crazy either, because we saw a different match.”
Sneijder also does not understand that the positive tone is always used in Ajax’s interviews. “A player like that (Henderson, ed.) has a certain emotion. Overall it is far from positive. Apparently they agree that you are not allowed to talk about fatigue and that you make positive noises after losing matches. A trainer (Farioli, ed.) said last week that he was proud of his team.”
Not critical enough
According to the former midfielder, people can be a lot more critical of each other, although Sneijder also wonders whether the Ajax players also do this in the dressing room. “Don’t know. I doubt that. After every match you haven’t played well, you constantly hear about: yes it was a good pot. We have to remain positive and there are plenty of starting points, we are proud of each other. Seriously guys, do you seriously think that this is how things go in the locker room and that they say: it really sucked today?”
