MATCH PREVIEW: Netherlands v Hungary

[@bennyprofane99]

Always great to catch up with you guys around international break - makes me feel connected to my beloved Oranje despite being on the other side of the planet 🙃

[@FootballOranje]

Thank you very much for your kind words! We'll see you on the next preview on Sunday and hopefully the post-match stream after the game on Tuesday! It's great having all of us English-speaking fans together 💪

Thanks again guys I really appreciate you. Just about to watch the video but I'll put my starting lineup down first. Verbruggen Dumfries, De Vrij, Van Dijk, J.Timber Gravenberch, Reijnders, De Jong Malen, Brobbey, Gakpo I'd actually like to see Kluivert given some minutes too. I think he can be a useful guy to have in the squad whether it's right wing, left wing or center.

You are so welcome! Interesting to see that you would actually start Frenkie. Kluivert does seem to deserve an opportunity again for Oranje now that he is developing nicely at Bournemouth

Thanks for the upload! I’m still at the beginning of video, but want to talk about the midfield, not sure you did. What midfield 3 do you think we need? Personally I think we need Wieffer or Schouten as 6. On 8 Frenkie or Gravenberch or Reijnders. On 10 koopmeiners or xavi. With so many good 8’s, we can play with two of those and sacrifice the 10. I’d say that Frenkie and Wieffer with Koopmeiers could be very exciting.

[@FootballOranje]

I think Schouten and Frenkie are too similar to play together. Wieffer next to one of those two in a tight game could work, and then swap out Wieffer for a Koopmeiners or Gravenberch in most other games, with Reijnders further ahead (unless he goes into the 8 for a more attacking option in the 10)

[@mouseDown83]

Interesting stance on Milambo. The discourse here in the Netherlands around him is very positive for obvious reasons, but there is no big outcry for him to walk straight into Oranje with a 10 on his back. Enticing to hear you three share a different view and you make sound arguments. I agree the potential is there. But with Koopmeiners, Simons and Reijnders he has a tall mountain to climb. It is always exciting to place your bet on the next young talent - but I suspect the current squad might be of a higher quality than Koeman makes them look.

[@AlexanderKorff]

Would like to see a visual of (each of?) your ideal starting 11... also, I'm a big Dumfries fan, so would like to know if he can play with Frimpong somehow, and am very keen to see how much difference Frenkie makes... I think his absence has been the reason NL have really underperformed in this Nations League... he's a bit like the Dutch version of Odegaard at Arsenal... such a creative playmaker, anyway, looking forward to keeping abreast with this channel guys, thank you.

[@FootballOranje]

We can look into more visuals 👀 Looking forward to seeing Frenkie back. He is the heart of what the Netherlands do well

[@AjNicks-oo2py]

Wiefer and frenkie in the middle🔥🔥

[@hhn-kx7mr]

I don't have any high expectations. Same old same old from Koeman. I'm glad De Jong is back.

[@FootballOranje]

@@hhn-kx7mr yep we aren't getting those unexpected results with Koeman - nothing out of the ordinary, and yet with a talented playing squad

[@TrentVan-r7p]

Kluivert should get a go he's been playing well also I think e everyone is being so hard on zirkzee give him atleast 8months to get conditioned look at say gravberch took him a season now look don't like how zirkzee is being treated man utd supporter's should be ashamed. I hope he goes to mota he believes and give him the credit he deserves. Man utd will be red face in the future when he becomes one of the best strikers in football

[@FootballOranje]

I hope you're wrong on Zirkzee as sadly I didn't expect much of him going to United. Kluivert has indeed been improving and I took would like to give him a good half an hour to try and impress as a 10

[@TrentVan-r7p]

@FootballOranje you have to give him some time I actually get really offended how everyone is expecting him to be scoring 20 goals a game look at half the players that go there toxic club Bruno doesn't pass ever should never of went there should of went with mota he knows he's a special player there's no positive people you have to support them not treat them like that he will definitely have last laugh it's not 1974 was so slow even cruyff said they would struggle in today's speed and too top it off he was already 6months fitness wise behind the 8ball.... Utd is toxic as rudd just got spat out like nothing I don't like the club anymore I used too now no not after the way the treat zirkzee very sad for him but he will rise above you all will see us dutch are built differently 🦁

[@Davek69]

At least Babel has officially retired 😅

[@FootballOranje]

🎉🎉🎉

[@wilsonkelly3151]

Maatsen omission is sad

[@FootballOranje]

@@wilsonkelly3151 He isn't getting enough starts at Villa, and he's perhaps too attacking down the left side when you have something already so offensive in Dumfries and Frimpong down the right.
