Watch list Defenders Orange team

Seems a repetitive thing. After a long injury absence he expected to get into the Feyenoord defense at once (while we only conceded 6 goals in 9 matches) and he got into a fallout with van Persie about it.
Wonder what it is this time, because it actually isnot something I link to him.
Maybe his unexpected good run as leftback that made him undisputed before his injury, hid this character trait and surfaces it when he's challenged.

The brothers Sepp and Rav Van den Berg impress as central defenders in the Buli.
Rav van den Berg came in as a top purchase in Cologne. Because of qualities, because of his transfer fee, but also because of his well-known surname. Brother Sepp caused a furore at FSV Mainz 05 and to a lesser extent Schalke 04. Yet it didn't all go smoothly in the German cathedral city. Van den Berg had to make up for a training delay and suffered a shoulder injury in his second match.
Against Hoffenheim, he appeared at kick-off again. 'I saw a different Rav, very focused. As a coach, you draft players when you feel they are ready. And he was ready for it', said coach Lukas Kwasniok after the 2-2 draw. His performance as part of a three-man defense also appealed to the German media. Van den Berg formed a three-man defense with Cenk Özkacar and Joel Schmied and impressed in particular by the calmness in his game and his constructive qualities. 'We trained a lot on standard situations and he was a dominator there too,' said Kwasniok. 'He confirmed what he showed in training, was a rock and played very maturely.'

De Vrij is injured in possible last game for Inter
The 34-year-old Dutchman started, just like a week earlier against Hellas Verona, in the starting line-up. His compatriot Denzel Dumfries was missing from the Nerazzurri's match selection. De Vrij played his 297th and possibly last game for Inter on Saturday. The veteran, who came over from Lazio in the summer of 2018, has an expiring contract in Milan. It was not a happy end to the season. De Vrij had to leave the field injured in the final stages. It is currently unclear whether that will have consequences for the upcoming World Cup in the United States, Mexico and Canada.

Talented defender Mats Rots will be the most expensive player ever sold by FC Twente.
The Tukkers sell the talented left back for - a total of - 16 million euros to 1899 Hoffenheim.
Rots signs a contract for 5 seasons with the number 5 of the Bundesliga.
The 20-year-old Rots has already undergone a medical examination and will commit to Hoffenheim until mid-2031. The German sub-topper has agreed a transfer fee with FC Twente, which, on the basis of guaranteed bonuses, will rise to 16 million euros in the coming years. That is a record for FC Twente. The highest outgoing transfer so far dates back to 2014, when Dusan Tadic was sold to Southampton for 14 million euros. Hoffenheim initially bet lower, but continued in recent days, also because it had a lot of competition in the battle for the signature of Rots.
The defender of the Young Orange Squad was also on the list of national champion PSV. In addition, the Portuguese title holder, FC Porto, and Premier League club Newcastle United inquired about Rock. Hoffenheim was the first to become concrete and managed to convince him with a detailed sporting plan.
