:Ajax’s disastrous season hit a new low on Sunday when they suffered a humiliating 6-0 defeat to bitter rivals Feyenoord in Rotterdam, their largest ever loss in De Klassieker and the joint-fifth biggest defeat in the club’s history.

Ajax have been hit by issues on and off the pitch this campaign but while they were depleted by injury, few would have foreseen their capitulation as they managed one shot at goal compared to 30 for their hosts at De Kuip.

"It was tough, bad," Ajax coach John van 't Schip told ESPN."We were inferior on all fronts - physically, on the ball. Feyenoord were much stronger in terms of intensity from minute one. We didn't get into the game. This is a blow that we all have to accept." Ajax are in sixth with 45 points from 29 matches. They have not finished lower than third since the 2005/06 season.

It was more bad news for the Netherlands’ most successful club after they suspended new CEO Alex Kroes with immediate effect on Tuesday on suspicion that he had been involved in insider trading in the club's shares.
