Koop out, Guus Til in https://www.telegraaf.nl/sport/3275...kt-weer-af-bij-oranje-guus-til-zijn-vervanger
Amazing that Koopmeiners constantly finds a way to bail out last minute from Oranje duty.. Not super excited about Til. He’s stiff and quite limited. I think Steijn would have been a better choice (goal + assist leader in Eredivisie). Also, would have been a great confidence booster for this young kid. Oh well, at least Koeman said a few words about him.
I hope Koeman has the ball to pair Van de Ven and Virgil at the heart of defense… (Koeman was asked about this, and he’s non-committal). Both Van der Ven and Virgil are the only two CD’s showing good forms… the other options are injured, old/slow, or lacking rhythm. To accommodate Mickey, that may mean that Virgil shift to the RCD (not his preferred), hopefully this won’t be a major issue!
It's only Hungary though, so maybe try Mickey at LB and vHecke at CB?? That way you can save Mickey at CB for the Germany game
If you want to try then try with Hungary game and give them time to create chemistry and understand each other so they can be ready for Germany.
In that case, since its only Hungary, why not start Hato alongside Virgil and see how he does?? I really wanna see the youngsters get a chance
Havertz will also miss Oranje (and Bosnia) game. Lots of injuries for Germany. Now is the time to beat them!
This is why it is stupid to pack these matches into an already overloaded club schedule. Players should have a limit on how many matches they can play in during a season. We are going to continue to see players get hurt and miss matches.
41239 Well, we're seeing a Dutch/German in the Manschaft selection. Robin Gosens returns in the selection.
Nations L. is great for the fans, great for sponsors, great for TV revenue, and great for Uefa bosses. But horrible for the actual players
Even without NL, the club’ schedule is the killer, too many competitions/matches (country/UEFA) + expansion to have more teams/matches. The players perhaps can go on strike and no football then maybe this will change.
that was the point Rodri was making prior to his season ending injury. They have added two more matches to CL competition and in England they have two cup competitions which is just looney.
I Love Oranje, International Football, and the Nations League matches. Certainly it’s pretty clear there are too many matches, but that problem is caused first and foremost by the clubs with early season starts to the season, traveling overseas to stuff their pockets, and of course the specific League matches, Domestic Cup competitions, and European matches. Matches start in July and August now ending in May or June. Too much money at stake won’t likely change things especially with this upcoming and rather confusing FIFA World Club Cup coming in 2025. Players are the puppets, and have no chance with the powers at be only looking at their own pockets. UEFA & FIFA are corrupt to the core.
The fact they even added to the already busy EPL schedule beyond this, is insanity!!! I can't even comprehend
for you ............. What are the Top 5 Dutch players of all time for you????? Top 1 ... Top 2 .... Top 3 .... Top 4 ... Top 5 ............ ???? .....
for you Orange 14 ............. What are the Top 5 Dutch players of all time for you????? Top 1 ... Top 2 .... Top 3 .... Top 4 ... Top 5 ............ ????
And now Henrichs is out. Germany wont have much of a team left https://www.ad.nl/nederlands-voetba...afhaken-voor-wedstrijd-tegen-oranje~a25d0e42/
