News: Dutch players at home and abroad worthy to be tracked in connection with the Dutch NT - Part 4

This article sums up the state of our national team perfectly:

Henderson has been in good form since returning from injury and is England's captain. I can't stand Dele, but his production doesn't lie; 10 goals and 13 assists (plus a bunch of penalties earned). Even though I don't like him as a player he's effective and will get used.

 

Bergwijn, who was recently voted best player of the month in Ereredivisie, would have deserved to be there. He has been better than Kluivert in recent weeks.

 

LOL @ PORNED

 

Still persisting with Dost? Dude just cant cut it at international level. Even a clown like Stones will have a field day against him

 

Depay with a well placed header gives Lyon the win:

Koeman says he's willing to put in efforts to get him on track.
Good luck with that.

 

Wie moet de aanvoerdersband bij Oranje krijgen?

• Virgil van Dijk (39%)
• Kevin Strootman (18%)
• Georginio Wijnaldum (9%)
• Stefan de Vrij (25%)

 

I say DeVrij because he already has 1 world cup under his belt

 

De Ligt

 

Van Dijk = captain, De Vrij = vice captain. Wijnaldum is not captain material. Strootman will be bridging until other young midfields get more experienced (not long term) and has not performed well (in NT) when he was captain.

 

Going from a young talent that went through the humiliation of a 10-0 trashing by PSV to this is quite remarkable.

Lazio contract rebel Stefan De Vrij is ready to reject a host of Premier League clubs and Barcelona to sign for Inter Milan on a free transfer this summer, according to Gazzetta dello Sport.

The Dutchman has already confirmed he will not extend his Lazio contract beyond the end of this season and is free to sign a pre-contract agreement with any club outside of Serie A.

Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool and Manchester City have all been credited with an interest in De Vrij, but he is ready to reject them all after verbally committing himself to Inter Milan.

I watched on the BBC Match of the day Aké and again he didnot look good defensively. He had an assist though, but that's not his main job. He didnot do much when the 2 goals against were scored.

 

Both goals were deflection.dont think he is a spiderman.

 

Depay with a double yesterday.
DeVrij also scored off a corner.

Afellay has been asked to leave Stoke

 

Surprised it's taken this long for his attitude to become an issue

 

What did he do to piss off Stoke?

 

Afellay got into a pushing match during training a week or two ago

 

Really?
If that's a reason to kick out a player you can kick out any player in the Eredivisie, as they almost all get into that or even into a fight.
Sounds more like looking for a scapegoat for their woefull performance.

 

Its a lot easier to get kicked out when you're not performing

 

Sorry, but I watched him again in the match against Cristal Palace today and I cannot understand that you donot see his tactical shortcomings. He really has no clue where to position himself. A few times the opponent ran from the mid line towards the Bourn goalie with 4 men running back to shut the attack down, but Aké wasnot among them, no he was about 20 meters further away....while he's the defender. Tactical shortcomings is flattering....he has no clue about defensive tactics.

 

Depay started todays Lyon game as central striker.
Maybe this is where his future lies??
