Love this quote from Keith about Ajer's new contract: 'Sometimes, as a coach, you can be too keen to look over the fence instead of looking at what's already in your own garden.'
I think a lot of GPG members, who always seem to think the grass is greener and that we're in a game of Football Manager, should pay attention to that.

A whole team of young and up and coming stars out on loan. Extending more senior players ( not old, or past their peak ) players. New signings.

Keith his squad depth, through fitness that I don’t think TF ever had the pleasure of.

I think we’re really planning on Europe, I know lots of others have said yes, we will do it. But I do now believe that the club believe and are planning for it

If just a few of these loans come good, clearly as we all know the club is a fantastic place for the staff and players to play while treated with respect.

If this comes together as panned, where in the the ceiling ?

He seems like a good character to have around, versatile and can be really good at times, however he does have more than his fair share of costly mistakes though so think that will stop him holding down a starting spot for a prolonged period

He has great recovery pace and tends to get tight (albeit sometimes too tight, and your second point is absolute b***ocks. His "issues" are occasionally getting too tight and positioning when crosses come in (with only ~5 games for us as a CB in a 4 that's understandable)
 

Kristoffer Ajer

Pleased overall. He has earned his place this year and has upped his game. I'm not sure the club would have offered this 12 months ago.

I'm still concerned about his injury record. If we can get 3 good years out of him, it is money well spent. Looked good at CB.
 

Kristoffer Ajer

We need a good squad and he can either start or be on the bench. This is a sensible decision IMO.

I am really happy about this. He is so passionate about defending, celebrating a block like a goal. Very comfortable on the ball. One of my very long list of favourites ❤️🐝

The fact he's keeping Sep,who is quality,from starting at the moment shows what a bit of trust and encouragement can do.We need these type of players who will run through brick walls for us just like Vitaly.

Agree, and his place in the team at CB coincides with a very good run of results, he has played his part.

Haslam wasn’t in the medical department. Try again.

He was in charge of fitness wasn’t he - and we suffered so many muscular injuries the implication was that over-training was going on … which strangely enough appears to be the case at Tottenham this season.

Head of Athletic Performance – I assume Ben Ryan has a lot to say about that now.

There’s no implication as you’re not qualified to make that assumption. Neither am I.

Have we taken a different approach this season? Of course.

I can think that, just like I can think that players are recovering from long term injuries more effectively since Marathon Man went off to Chelsea Women … but that’s just me :sueme:
 

Kristoffer Ajer

Yes it was a nasty one player fell on his leg and ankle rolled ..
 

Kristoffer Ajer

Isn't there a clause in the Brentford contract, that as soon as you sign you are obliged to get an injury?
:fishing:

... this thread should be about Ajer...and not about having a pop at a post said when the individual making it had a chin on about the result yesterday... that said... I've never been a fan of Ajer... regardless of the fact he's put in a few decent shifts this season...BFC obviously know better than me as his recent contract extension would indicate... but personally I'm baffled by it...as his injury record alone would make me question BFCs decision....I don't know what the future holds for Ajer at BFC....but I genuinely hope he is not a first choice CB on the teamsheet at the start of the 26/27....we need better.

I agree with this 👍

The bit that puzzles me is that I think he was under contract until 2029 anyway 🤷

Extending players that we know well is significantly cheaper than purchasing someone new so that must play a large part.

I don't dislike Kris or Vitaly but I thought they were players we would be seeking to upgrade to continue to evolve.

Kris has been good value for money though overall ✅

....he wasn't purchased as a utility/squad player by BFC.... but that's what he's been...I think that says a lot....and perhaps why he's been given the extension.
