Janssen does not see AZ, the current Eredivisie leader, as a serious title contender. However, he praises the team's playing style, saying they play "hele speels" (very entertaining) football. The analyst also highlights AZ's young players, such as Dave Kwakman, who he believes will go on to achieve great things.
AZ's chances of winning the title are slim, according to Janssen, but the team's youth and talent make them an exciting watch. Other analysts, such as Rafael van der Vaart, disagree, believing AZ can compete for the title. The next few weeks will be crucial in determining the Eredivisie's true title contenders.
