Nice video, thank you!

Not a single word about taijjani reinders the AC milan midfielder thats one of the most important one’s the Netherlands squad didn’t really had an attacking midfielder until he came

Got this in my recommended after the game netherlands vs england. Klicked because I wanted to see how many new comments there were already😂

Who’s here after England 😂😂

These guys look like they play for years and are friends no matter what. I think that brings you far and gets all the respect from our country. Pak ze aan 💪🍻🇳🇱

the thing with the dutch team is, they usually bring the party but for some reason the win is hardly every awarded, you can bet you dollar that if the netherlands end up in the finale against germany,france or spain then the referees and organisation will do anything they can to not let the dutch squad win.

Exactly, defense wins championships. And that defense on paper sounds like it wouldn’t let even an Ant squeeze by.

Don't forget about Wout Weghorst 🐐 Let him play the last 10 minutes and he always succeeds and makes the winning goal for the team

They’re going far in this euros, I can feel it

And Zirkzee has just replaced Koopmeijners, who had an amazing season with overperforming Bologna!

The scary truth is that by the addition of maatsen and especially Zirkzee the team has 3 unnamed players in this video (Maatsen, Reijnders and Zirkzee) who will show you at the euros they belong to the worlds top of football

I think Wout Weghorst might be one of the most underrated football players of all time

You have forgotten about maybe the most clutch player the netherlands has to offer. Wout Weghorst. This striker managed to score twice against argentina in the wc2022, scoring against poland. and all as a substitute player. He might just be the secret to victory.

damn! netherland's backline has 3 trophy winners from the 3 biggest leagues!!!

Everybody is hyping France! But if they don't win there first match against Austria I see trouble for them! Mbampe and a few other players are sick...besides that I see there is irritation between a few players and they think the first 3 matches they can do on 50% ... I feel the arrogance of that same hyped team of France of 2010...that didn't make it out of the group! The 2 qualification matches between FRA-NED , the Netherlands played with a whole other team due to injuries and foodpoisen! It's time to return the favour to France in the second match , because this Oranje is much much better!

Honestly I feel like the Poland game showcased one issue we have with our team. Once Poland went up 1-0, our offense was on point, ball possession was good, chances every minute, and it only took 13 minutes to respond and tie the game. But then? Poland started getting chances again. Before the 1-1, we controlled the game, after 1-1, we lost that control. That is one big issue with the Netherlands. If they played like they did during those 13 minutes, it would've been an easy win. And another issue it showed is, our finishing isn't good enough. The defense is stacked completely as you say, while the attack is the weakest. The Poland game, other than a corner, was defensively very strong. Good saves from the keeper and good defending otherwise. But the attack was honestly awful. Despite a ton of chances, a lot of shots weren't on target that really should have been, and it should have been an easy win. Weghorst is a good striker who always seems to come through as a sub, Depay is good but he has been missing a lot of chances. Against Poland he really should have hit the target, even if it's saved, at least create a proper chance instead of putting it way high. It's not that the offense is weak, it's just that the chances that we get should be going in. We should've beaten Poland 4-1 rather easily with the amount of possession and chances we had... Another issue is that we're way better when we are behind rather than ahead. Look at Argentina 2022, 2 goals behind, tactic chance and 2 goals scored very late in the game. And then it's a tie, so we go back to playing carefully. Same happened here, Poland scored the 1-0. Our offense is suddenly looking dangerous, possession is high, chances every minute, constant pressure. It looked like a scary team, until Gakpo scored the 1-1. Then suddenly Poland got more possession than before, created a few chances almost within minutes. I know this is because they also change their way of play once we score, but the Dutch team has always been really dangerous and strong when behind, but tied or ahead, it's simply too careful and not lethal enough. It's like we need to feel the pressure before letting out the full potential. Honestly, if the finishing rate just goes up a little bit, we'd be a strong contender. Our defense is amazing and proper chances against us are rare. But our offense needs to put those balls in the net instead of constantly putting them wide or high. If we capitalize on the chances more we'd make it really far.

i was 18 in 1988 .. it's coming home it's coming home 1 lion on our shirt.. it's coming :D

Memphis Depay doet zijn best, maar is helaas niet de ultieme spits voor oranje. Donyell Malen heeft veel meer snelheid, diepte en scorend vermogen. Bij topsport en topcoaches hoort ook oncomfortabele keuzes durven maken als situaties zich aandienen of daarom vragen. Malen eerder brengen en Wout ook eerder. Dan is Dumfries niet voor niets aan het rennen en de bal hoog aan het voorgeven in de 16.

As a dutchie hearing him pronounce our players names is hilarious because we also struggle with the pronunciation sometimes

I have a good feeling about the team. It seems balanced and matured and certainly capable to give every team a run for their money. If EC history has shown anything, it's anybody's game on a good day. Look at 2008, Holland destroyed France and Italy in the first round and got defeated by Russia in the next round. Anything is possible at the Euros and that's what makes it much more interesting from a competitive perspective than the WC.

Who’s here after England vs Netherlands semi final? You did good netherlands❤❤❤❤❤

You haven't heard? Frimpong is a winger now 🤣🤣

1. We play 4-3-3 (it’s the Dutch system) 2. We miss our entire midfield (de Jong, koopmeijnders, de roon, wiefer, timber) 3. Van dijk, Ake and vd Ven all prefer to play on the left center position of defense. 4. Xavi is consistently underperforming in the Dutch national team 5. We lack a clinical striker. Depay is too inconsistent So my hopes are mostly Gakpo and Frimpong. Hopefully Depay finds his form. Reijnders and ake and van dijk are pretty good, but overall we don’t have the same qualities that you find in teams like England, Germany, Portugal. I think it’s mostly because we miss someone that finds the net easily and an underwhelming midfield.

Well, you got that one wrong, pal. England will now face Spain in the final where there will only be one result, a comfortable 2-0 win for Spain.

People here after England won against them in the semifinals

Don’t forget Geertruida

And dont forget our super sub Wout Weghorst. Is he the best player, no ofcourse not. Is he the most technical striker ever, not by a longshot. But should Argentina, Ireland, Iceland and so many more countries remember his short but ridiculously effective presence on the pitch? Absolutly. The so much critisized striker has scored very important goals in his last matches for the national team that were key in getting the penalty series against argentina in the world cup and qualifing for the european cup. Yesterday against Poland again he proved that if used well he is an absolute weapon as a sub. He likely will never be a great starting striker given the better alternatives but if there is one guy in orange that will never stop fighting and working to give his absolute 1000% to score that gamechanging goal it will be the supersub Wout Weghorst.

Great video!

Bro forgot what weghorst did against argentina

Weghorst is also VERY good!

Everybody says defense wins championships but offense wins matches

Who’s here after the match💀 👇🏼

We probably lose by penalties lmao, like always

not one country likes to play against the Netherlands, the all know its gonna be a hard game for the win. what i see from the last 2 matches, is the attacking is nice to see, the balans is perfect betwin defens midfield and front. i feel something in the dutch team, that maybe leeds to succes. we will see, Germany did well yesterday, so final will be Netherlands- germany 😂 good luck and have funn everyone, lett it be a E.K we all will remmember in a good way. ❤⚽

Aged like fine wine

Messi should have been given a red card..

Awesome video mate! Great effort, really enjoyed it. Curious, when talking about the mids, why didnt you make mention about Wijnaldum? He's in the squad and will definitely bring experience and quality to the midfield.

Ik heb opeens zo'n *gevoel* dat we in de halve finale gaan komen

Love frimpong, doing amazing. But to be honest Dumfries has never ever let me down internationally.

I am Dutch, and I approve of this message

I have noticed that in everything the Dutch do they are very good at olmost winning things I woud know I am dutch

Lb - van de ven Rcb - vvd Lcb - de ligt Rb - geertruida Lcm - veerman Rcm - schouten Cam - xavi Lw - gakpo St - depay Rw - frimpong If I was Koeman

The Netherlands never had the best players in a tournament, but they always have the most magic moments that get them far.

Let me break it down for you, we are the netherlands and we're decent in football but we never win🤙

i love english pep saying dutch names xd good video keep it up

You actually said "Donyell Malen and Steven Bergwijn" while showing pictures of Gakpo and Memphis... Dude.

if Koeman put Xavi on the bench and put Malen in we will not lose from France.

engeland gaat winnen en dan zegt een engelse man dat nederland gaat winnen ... dit is de omgekeerde wereld in ieder geval engeland gefeliciteerd .... England is going to win and then an English man says that the Netherlands is going to win... this is the upside down world, in any case, England, congratulations

Take out depay and give zirkzee a try

Spain: hold my Spanish flag

They have a great squad and will be very difficult to beat. Just 1,5 year ago the almost defeated Argentina, the worldchampion. Irank them 2nd after France.

Im watching to see Frimpong in action at some point❤ absolute beast and legend across the wing!

Didn’t age well bud

"Guaranteed" 😂😂😂 England says hello

We have like 3 or 4 players that are injured but crucial to the team....

Veerman is better at creating chances then gravenberg imo veerman has some great passing plays etc where gravenberg I have never seen him do

INMAGINE weghorst a euros before gta 6

It would be nice, but I'm not getting my hopes up. I still have a very bitter taste in my mouth from Euro 2008, where we topped the group of death beating Italy and France, only to get knocked out by Russia in the quarter-final...

Well this aged like milk

what an nice vid!

Well that was abit wrong 🤣

thsank you for being so positive about our team, tho i have a feeling we watch differents teams this year haha well in 48 hrs we will know if u got even or its another 1-3 like back in '88

watching this before the half final. We wil win it is meant to happen.

You forgot to mention some stuff. - PSV players had an almost perfect season, talking about form (schouten en veerman). - Tijjani reinders has been very strong this season and is in form - The other good dutch defenders like. Stefan de vrij, hes been dwindling with injuries and form last 2 years. But the year before that he was the best defender on the italian fields. Or matthijs de ligt, a very good defender who is also has one of the best headers in the game. Daley bling, although not great at defending but hes more then a defender, Blind has been one of the key players in the succes this year for girona and they have competed for the title pretty long this season. - Ian maatsen anyone? He wasnt even suppose to go the the EK, because our defense is that good. - Donyall malen has grown this year and has been part of the succes of dortmund aswell as ian maatsen. - And a classic liverpool legend Wijnaldum has been back in the team, can he show hes not old and bygone this EK - And maybe or big injury bench, not only frenkie but also koopmeijnders has been world class this year. And you dont know him, but noa long has been the best player in psv early season this year until heavy injury. And the best player of psv this year Luuk de jong and one of the best headers of europe has thanked for the national team.

I do see us get far although I’m sure we will feel the absence of de jong and koopmeiners at some point, although players like reijnders Veerman and Schouten are in brilliant form those 2 are just so much quality and experience combined. It really thinned out our depth in midfield considering we already lost 2 squad locks with wieffer, de Roon, and maybe even Quinten timber who had a monstrous season but wasn’t fit enough, otherwise he would’ve been de jong his replacement or maybe gravenberch wouldn’t have made the squad.

welllllll i dont think they are anymore

GUARANTEED ! GUARANTEED !

Unlucky mate 😂🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

After seeing yesterday’s match, The Netherlands have no change at all. With non players like Depay it is impossible.

Nice video but not complete. If the Netherlands whants the best defensive backline they need to play Dumfries, van de Ven, van Dijk and Ake. A insane strong center that is strong on the ground, in the air and super fast. A leftback that is very good in defending and decent in attacking and a offensive right back that is strong in both defending and attacking. If they need a just a little weaker backline that is offensive stronger they need to bring Maatsen for Ake but in a normal case Ake should be always the 1e pick. Xavi Simons should be the attacking midfielder, he did a amazing job there when playing for PSV. Reijnders should also always play and the last should be Veerman or Schouten. Up front showed Frimpong that he is the best right winger. The number one striker is Depay and on the left is not much choice so Gakpo should also play. I agree that you can't call this a weak team but it's for sure not the best team. Teams like France have more quality so maybe the Netherlands could do a good job but even with de Jong they would never be favorite. If they reach the quater or semi final they did a very good job. Other dangerous countries are Germany, England, Portugal and Spain. The favorite team should be France.

The coach is supposed to include Van de Ven and De Ligt instead of Ake and Van Dijk

Uhm, I don't think that aged well... alreaddy.

Van Dijk was also a descent striker

If he can make a team out of them everyting is possible

what happen to the Dutch with arrival back/ forth to BErlin 2024

Like always it’s just a matter of luck as well. I mean they can already draw Portugal after the group.

We have a great team again Attack is weak partNot many options Defenders are best part these days

We lost 😢

Cmon Oranje 🧡

Also, the average players from Ajax are not starting. For the first time no Ajax DNA is in the starting 11.

Austria stole the show :)

NEDERLAAANDDD!!!!!

watkins didnt think so

We won't as much as i want to tomorrow spain will win from france and i do think we will win from england but we will loose against Spain. But 2nd place is better than i ever expected to be fair so i will still see it as a half win

Aged like fucking milk

You guaranteed me that the Netherlands would win. I put a lot of money on Netherlands winning tonight because of your guarantee. I lost so much money tonight, I don't know what to do. I demand some compensation from you. Do not even try to shirk responsibility for your actions. You gave me a guarantee, which is like giving your word, and you failed. And I lost a lot of money because I trusted your word. You owe me money.

So, in summary.. avoid France 🇫🇷

They aint got shit on england

When even danmark and greece can win this tournament, winning it once doesnt cut it as special.

unfortunate mate

...this did not age well

We play 4-3-3

Who is here after Netherlands is eliminated from the euros in the group stage. France and Austria are through😂😂

Defense forgot: De Ligt, Maatsen, Blind

I know I am commenting after the facts, but even before the EC went off I am not really impressed when I hear England (same can be said of the Netherlands). I wish all teams good luck, but I ofcourse hope the Netherlands will win😉

They'll go out to Portugal in the quarter final

Netherlands have no change without Frenkie De Jong

check again.

Matthijs de ligt?

Yeah not really
