Alert: Next decades Netherlands will be the new Hungary of Europe. Once great, but slipped into mediocrity.

LOL Hungary has surpassed us on the FIFA rankings.

Such a disgrace. Glad Blind left but we need some reorganisation in the KNVB.

 

Title needs to be changed to:

Will the Netherlands be WORSE THAN Hungary? Once great, but slipped into mediocrity?

 

Nah, we'll be back. Its gonna take 10 to 15 years though

 

With nice coach, things could be better. Grim won't make any fairy tales. The solutions are van Basten, van Gaal, Rijkaard...a lot of new players in recent months. Defence is not good, a lot of new players without experience.

 

HUH?? Defence is not good?? Thats actually our strong point right now

 

Strange, opponents always score against Netherlands, even Luxembourg in the last year. Bulgaria is a weak team now. Hard to understand how could Netherlands lose that match. Maybe early goal became crucial and fanatical Bulgarian fans. I don't see any other rational reason. With those two reasons, game quality can become weaker.

I noticed that Netherlands started to love close family relations in the national team. Father - son, father of his wife became coach, he became the team captain. I noticed today the son of Kluivert in Ajax.

 

The brothers connection gave us better performance than father-son (Blind, Cruyff, Kluivert?). Muhren, Van de Kerkhof, Koeman, Witschge, De Boer are the famous ones. De Jong is the last one that we have (not as great as others). Perhaps we can hope for the Kongolo brothers (Terence and Rodney).

 

There are also the Kongolo brothers! And the Pierie brothers (now US fans get stressed)
Maybe we get the Orange Brotherhood

 

Brothers connection was good, but every other connection after World Cup 1998 was not that good. I mean mostly on father - son, father of someone's wife...nepotism - usual definition of relations in southern Europe, which surprises in case of Netherlands.
Brothers Sneijder also exist. Younger one is weak. Ronald de Boer depended a lot on his brother Frank. He wasn't that good in central part, like his brother Frank in defence and with free kicks.
Father of Kluivert is Kenneth Kluivert, player of Suriname NT.

 

vBreukelen was supposedly caught on tape lying about some things:

He's still the main man at KNVB however, so its unlikely he'll be fired.
He also apparently wants to do a giant housecleaning and start the KNVB all over again

 

^^^ If he is like President Trump who cannot get fired, can he be impeached for lying? They should add a clause for all KNVB officials: They shall be removed from Office on Impeachment for, and conviction of Bribery, High Crimes and Misdemeanors (perjury of oath, abuse of authority, bribery, intimidation, misuse of assets, failure to supervise, dereliction of duty, conduct unbecoming). It sounds like perjury of oath to me. Replace him with King Louis and see what the King can do.

 

Dick is back...great...
Is the job so unattractive
