Jeremy Frimpong… what a player.

Netherlands’ squad is extremely weak.
I don’t even know half of those players.

The credibility of Dutch football is in the toilet. Not producing any top coaches anymore, talent pipeline is dry

It’s not that bad. I think our frontline lacks a world-class forward we always used to have.

Defence is top tier really.

You know what - you are correct. It’s not that bad. If I focus on the first XI, it is a quality side.

:xhaka:

@Joshua oof

Wasn’t he surprisingly good for your NT for a while? Or did I make that up. Not anymore either way I take it :sweat_smile:

It was a weird match. Four of the goals against were from direct individual errors.

It was 2-1 in the second half and then the USA went to pieces.

I despise the US coach. He’s supposed to be a good man manager but his club teams have always had issues scoring. He started his tenure by trying to play Diet Man City football. We’re five years down the line and although the players aren’t as good as some USA supporters want to believe, the collective is somehow even more disjointed. They can slap around St. Kits or Trinidad in CONCACAF but are just not good enough to step up.

The real damning part was the 22WC when it took a late penalty to get out of the group and then capitulated to the Netherlands and had LVG say ā€œyeah we didn’t really make any adjustmentsā€

He’s not a good coach and the circumstances around his hiring and rehiring are pretty shady.

Xavi finally gets his first Holland goal.

That’s my boy! De Rossi has blood on his hands for how he’s handled him and Bove.

He’s nothing special.

Maybe, there’s a player there for me though. Especially for a team like Roma, he’s a player they should be investing in alongside other Primavera talent instead of all the overpaid bums they bring in every year.

They just let them go with the first offer that comes in and then cry for a player like them years later.
Frattesi, Scamacca and Calafiori should be Roma players now.

Never been impressed with him when I’ve seen him.

Are you Polish? I didn’t have you for Serie A or Roma follower?

Nope and nope, seen him play. Not a fan.

Joao Neves is Declan’s long lost Portuguese brother.

Portugal are my faves for the Euros. Excellent XI from top to bottom, good blend of winning experience and yoof
