Pre-match: Oranje vs. Bulgaria & Italy

yep, that's a shame.. Luuk de Jong has been added

 

And for me too, going to be on a ferry and will be too far away from reception ranges..

de Vrij was still sore and did not train with the team today, Blind says maybe he will be ok for tomorrow.

According to AD, based on the last training exercises the starting lineup in Bulgaria looks like so:
Zoet
Karsdorp - de Ligt - Martins Indi - Blind
Wijnaldum - Strootman
Robben - Klaassen - Promes
Dost

Although, Sneijder played in the same role as Klaassen, and Blind said in an interview that he may use 2 left footed CBs, instead of de Ligt, so we'll just see..

 

That midfield worries me. It has as much creativity as a brick wall but at least they can run all day...

 

Does he go with 2 of BMI, Hoedt & Viergever in De Vrij can't play or does he play De Ligt?

Given the backlash about De Ligt, I think he will may use 2 left footed CB's, rest of the line-up looks okay & expected - Depay to be Supersub!

 

Before to think about the play offs we should finish ahead Sweden first, and it will not be easy after their victory 4-0 this afternoon...They're having a great goal difference.

 

De Ligt starts. whoh.

1 J. Zoet
4 B. Martins Indi
2 R. Karsdorp
11 A. Robben
8 G. Wijnaldum
6 K. Strootman
5 D. Blind
10 D. Klaassen
7 Q. Promes
3 M. de Ligt
9 B. Dost

 

Klaassen over sneijder? No memphis too? Interesting lets see how thats works. Also re playoffs, it will be seeded as it has done in the past so if we made it we would avoid those guys i guess

 

1-0 down already! Shocking goal, de ligt at fault too

 

De Ligt screwup leads to a goal. 0-1.

 

Bad mistake from De Ligt. Don't understand how he could misjudge the ball like that.

Other than that it is just painful to see how Strootman, Wijnaldum and Klaassen are handling the ball.

 

De Ligt 3 aerial duels, 3 lost, one goal.

 

Why you would stick a kid into this game i have no idea

 

What did you expect from a player who's probably still a virgin...

 

2-0 this is awful

 

0-2. What a mess

 

It's like the Vlaar debut all over again.

Foolish mistake from Blind to play him.

 

Depay, Viergiver and Snijder at the half?

 

Vlaar hasn t been called during 4 years after that horribe game but De Ligt will keep being called again and again.

Guess why

 

Well I think that's nonsense and De Ligt will probably not be called up in the near future unless there are a lot of injuries or he performs incredibly for Ajax.

And Blind is an idiot of course.
