It's the principles of players keeping the ball under intense pressure instead of just hoofing it up field and moving the opposition to create overloads.

I only mentioned Barcelona because of your nonsense about Tippy Tappy which is the accusation clueless people throw at Barcelona.
Ajax don't feck about with the ball like the tippy-tappy teams do. They transition much faster, more like the 70's Ajax teams.
