Okay, I know it's not the best moment to post something like this, I am well aware that we are shit, and I'm just as mad as everyone else here. BUT, things still need to be put into proportions. We are not, I repeast, WE ARE NOT -
Thank god, it's over. This intire damn year is over. BUT THINGS WILL BE BETTER. IN THIS DARKEST OF HOURS WE MUST STAND STRONG. WE ARE NOT DEAD. WE ARE STILL THE MIGHTY ORANJE. DON'T YOU FORGET THAT, EVEN IF THE PLAYERS DID...
An absolute disgrace. I think I have not seen something like this in my life. Yes we failed in 2002, but not like this. This is possibly the biggest failure ever. Lost for words.
The czechs are showing us that football is something very simple even when you don't have top players. Just the tactic, they fight on every challenge, give the simple but in the front pass...We're prisonners of our Ajax trash tactic with all those lateral and back passes, we play too horizontal, too stereotypical, it's always the same thing and it always ends up with Depay sending the same cross.
Against Turkey we made 1 out of 6. Against Iceland we made 0 out of 6 Against Czech we made 0 out of 6. We've been an absolutely disgrace this campaign, I want to believe that serious corrections are going to take place now.
Hey guys, I thought about starting an excessive round of trolling but instead I chose to tell you this: Holland is a football power - always were, always will be. Change/restart whatever you call it is possible if the people in charge take the right steps. It's been 15 years since we fielded a 39-year-old Mathäus as libero in Rotterdam just to get sent home after the group stage. Long story short: You guys can do it too! See you in Russia!
They made the qualification so easy that even the noob countries could join us and we learned we were not even a noob country. Even third place could get us into the Euro. These games where we just lose with 3-0 or 3-2. We concede like never before. This is so bad that I want a complete inspection on all levels. I want people fired on all levels. Not only Blind, van Oostveen, but far more people need to pay for this failure. This has been atrocious.
We haven't the same money and drawing power for talent/knowledge from outside. Das Reboot: @amylawrence71 talks to @honigstein about his book on German football's revival. http://t.co/sJxJt5jsluhttps://t.co/xqd5NguTQ5— Guardian sport (@guardian_sport) October 12, 2015
Well, I feel sad. I am even more worried about how we will do in the next few years with this poor group. Honestly; with Waijnaldum , Depay , Klaassen , Dost, Blind, Bruma. It feels like we're in deep shite.
2nd in WC 2010, 3rd in 2014 and in 2015 we are not amongst the 24 best of Europe. What a joke. Robben, van Persie, Sneijder era is going to end. Luckily we got plenty of youth coming through. I think 2018 is too soon though, going to take longer before we get to compete. I already commented on Blind's choice to put Zoet in goal, but the DM position is probably the most important defender in most systems we play, and ffs, Blind plays Blind. Lacks pace and grit , anyone could see that. I wonder what would have happened if Koeman got the job? At least he's stubborn and imo doesn't take shit. Blind lacks a lot of what you'd want. Used to love him as a footballer, but as a coach? I want to see heads roll at many positions within the KNVB. Getting replaced by people who actually give a shit and know what they are doing.
What we do have is multiple U17 teams that won the Euro. There is some talent, not sure about real outliers though. Next Robben is iffy.
Ouch. That was one of the craziest games I've seen in a while. It honestly could have been worse for you guys if we didn't get that red card. I don't know what the hell happened to this group.
We just lost.. and immediately I'm hearing everyone, from the game commentator to the TV interviewer talk about who needs to go and how to rebuild our football.. Can we just, for a minute, take a break in Holland? maybe take some time to think about some stuff before talking as we know shit.
