FC Ajax may be aiming for their fifth straight football title in the Dutch Eredivisie league, but the club has yet to conquer the football world beyond their domestic borders. For the fifth straight year, the Lancers will exit the UEFA Champions League 
after the group stage. They still have a shot at qualifying for the Europa League, though, and you can support their endeavors by stopping by Soccer Box's Ajax FC shop today and picking up a new home or away shirt.
The shirts available for purchase at the Soccer Box shop are perfect replicas of the Adidas kits that players will be wearing throughout the 2014 2015 Eredivisie season. The home shirt is a simple red and white design, while the Ajax away shirt 2014 2015 is a snazzy and modern blue design with neon yellow trim. Both the away jersey and the home shirt are perfect for supporting the FC Ajax squad, whether you are hoping for that fifth consecutive Dutch football title, or for a win at the Europa tournament.
UCL Woes
The 33 Netherlands football titles that the Lancers have won over the years prove that they are a world-class football team. However, for whatever reason they just don't seem to perform up to their potential at the UCL.
Indeed, for the fifth season in a row, Ajax will miss out on a chance to advance to the knockout phases of the competition. This year, they were bested during the group stage by two challenging opponents: Paris Saint Germain and Barcelona. Now the squad is battling with the Cyprus team APOEL for a chance to advance.
So long as Ajax beats or draws with APOEL in an upcoming December 10th home fixture, they will come in third place in UCL Group F and advance to the Europa League. Drop by Soccer Box's Ajax FC shop and pick up a shirt to root for the team!
Recent History
A third-place finish in Group F this year would align directly with the Lancers' UCL performance from recent years. Last year, they were bested by Barcelona and Milan, but beat Celtic for the Europa qualification slot; the year before, it was Borussia Dortmund and Bayern Munich on the top and Manchester City finishing fourth.
It's also clear that failing to advance in the UCL doesn't really impact Ajax in any major way. The squad's primary focus is and should be domestic play. In the 2014 2015 Eredivisie, the Lancers are currently in second place, behind PSV. They are only one point behind, though, so a single home or away game could put the wearers of the Ajax away shirt 2014 2015 back on top.
Europa League
Fans are undoubtedly hoping that FC Ajax can continue the pattern of winning the Netherlands football title. One pattern that could still break, though, is the club's failure to win at Europa. In each of the last three years, the team was eliminated from the tournament during the round of 32. Back in 2010 2011, they made it to the round of 16, but not any further.
Could this be the year that the Lancers break their normal cycle and claim the Europa trophy? That Soccer Box's Ajax FC shop stocks gear for a cup-winning club? It's tough to say. After all, the team hasn't won the tournament since 1992, and back then it even had a different name (the UEFA Cup).
Still, Ajax has been remarkably consistent over the last few years-right down to their eliminations from certain European football tournaments-so maybe they can use their consistency (in skill, play style, and management) to force a win in 2014 2015.
Management consistency might actually be the squad's greatest asset. Frank de Boer has been guiding the club with a steady hand since 2010. The Eredivisie winning streak began and has persisted under his tutelage, and if there's anyone who can guide the wearers of the Ajax away shirt 2014 2015 to a Europa victory, it's him.
Cheer for de Boer and his 2014 2015 FC Ajax squad by visiting Soccer Box's Ajax FC shop today. Whether you are looking for a home shirt, an away shirt, or even a training shirt, you can shop for it here.
