Came here to say this!

[@user-kt2zx4iv4f]

My god I was depressed for years I didn't watch football after that team lost. Perfectly symetrical. The entire left side was left footed the entire right side right footed. Wim Jonk was a maestro. Philip Cocu played every position from stopper to attack. Most versatile player the game has ever seen. The De Boer twins were magnificent. Edgar Davids was out of this world. 1st half played Brazil off the park. My problem was Kluivert. He had to miss about 10 before he scored 1. And that didn't work when R9 is the opposing striker. 1in1.

[@Giusie79]

That is for me the biggest dissapointment ever (after the 70s). Even more than the final in 2010 that I visited. Spain was just better. But in 1998 we were really good! That team was a combination of the Ajax 95 squad plus players like Bergkamp and Jonk (that left Ajax few years before 95).

[@user-kt2zx4iv4f]

@@Giusie79 I hear you.

[@mcorrelje]

@@user-kt2zx4iv4f I do think that Kluivert/Bergkamp was the last proper attacking duo we the Dutch had. From there on we been struggling to put on two attackers that could work that well together.

[@alfieb6711]

Reine sounds like he’s literally from down the road from me😂always fascinating listening to someone from different shores speaking English so perfectly

[@user-nc6pe9pv7t]

Actually the Dutch had four golden generations: 1. 74-80: Cruyff, Neeskens, Rensenbrink, Krol, Van Hanegem, Rep, Van der Kuijlen 2. 88-94: Gullit, Van Basten, Koeman, Rijkaard, Wouters 3. 97-2004: Seedorf, Kluivert, Davids, Van der Sar, Bergkamp, Overmars 4. 2004-2014: Robben, Van Persie, Sneijder, Van der Vaart, Van Nistelrooij, Van Bommel This generation is not (yet) golden but as a team capable of quite a bit: Van Dijk, Aké, Schouten, Van de Ven, Reijnders, Veerman, Frenkie de Jong, Depay, Zirkzee, Malen, Gakpo, Dumfries, Frimpong... there is a lot of football in this team

[@hette457]

Agree with your 4 points. The last part I don't agree. This generation doesn't have top players like the other ones. Only De Jong is world class and maybe van Dijk.

[@michelkegels8270]

​@@hette457 Agreed. But players like Gakpo, Reinders and Schouten, vd Ven have a lot of top potential. plus Ake, van Dijk qnd De Jong. And lets not forget the brothers Timber.

[@gweah7821]

Nah man, look at the players of those 4 generations you just named, and then look at the current team. There is no Robben, no Kluivert or Bergkamp, let alone a Gullit, Van Basten or Cruijff. It’s a very mediocre squad. They had one good game against Romania. That’s it. They could reach the final, because this half of the draw is weak, but whoever they would face in the final would be strong favorites.

[@monza8844]

@@hette457 *_"Only De Jong is world class and maybe van Dijk.."_* Too funny. De Jong is not world class at all. Look at DeBryune, that's what I consider world class. Neither is van Dijk Bergkamp, Kluivert, Van Persie world class? Get real. Ronaldo, Romario, Ronaldo (Brasil), Pele, Gerd Muller, Puskas, Eusebio, Distefano, etc... those were/are world class strikers. You mention Krol, he was not a world class defender, Cannavaro, Baresi, Cafu, Pyol, Beckenbauer, Maldini were. 95% on that list is nowhere near world class.

[@Meneervdberg]

​​​@@monza8844Disagree, Van Dijk, De ligt and De Jong are world class. Players with that potential are: Verbruggen, Xavi, Frimpong, Ian Maatsen, Zirkzee. Maybe Gakpo, Reijnders, Schouten and Van de Ven too.

[@siohmy]

It’s not exactly the biggest claim ever. Most teams will beat the bunch of headless chickens. Cannot fathom how we’re favourites against the Swiss. No chance.

[@walnoot1234]

Sad that Rene fails to reflect on the team in the late nineties. In 1998 we could have won the WC, but it was an incredibly tough competition with powerful Brazil, Argentina, France... in 2000 out on penalties against Italy in the semis. This team in the Euros 2024 doesn't have the peak quality of previous generations, but I feel the opposition is less now too, so this might be a chance for the Dutch to get lucky and seemingly this is already happening (progressing while 3rd in group, light round of 16 to build confidence, better side of the roster etc). In a final it's anyone's game, it's about getting there and the door is wide open.

[@FragLord]

Partly agree, but the toughest opponent they will face in the final. That was different in 88 when they eliminated the favorites in the semi finals. I could see them get passed Turkey and even England. But France, Spain, Portugal in the final, idk. A bridge too far i think

[@Goeloe]

[@Jhoekstra]

Overconfidence is the biggest problem of the Dutch team. And I’m Dutch, I know. Trust me

[@harmjava]

The teams need to play the quarterfinals before there is even a chance of a Netherlands-England semi-final. Meulensteen gave a good analysis. As he said, quality Dutch player material has been lacking at times (1980-82, 2006-2008, 2014-18), and Austria showed just a few days ago how the Dutch team can cave under pressure. But in some years the Dutch underperformed because the national team coaches were below par. It is a small country, yet the Dutch football association is reluctant to bring in a foreign coach, or a Dutch coach that doesn't hail from Ajax, Feyenoord or PSV. Danny Blind (Daley Blind's father) is just one example of a coach who had no proven record, but led the national team for quite some time, with disastrous results. How is Koeman doing? I personally think he is a fine coach, but not flawless.

[@rhysjaggar4677]

Dutchman supports his own national side in Euros shock....

[@mcorrelje]

To be fair there are many English people critical of Southgate as they have not been playing wonderful football have they? So it is not a shocker to not support the English national team.

[@mennovroom5537]

Theres no counter press because depay walks around like hes 39 and named ronaldo. He doesnt participate so there really is no point in pressing with the centre forward standing still

[@dalek3086]

[@mcorrelje]

A ball to Memphis is giving the ball away. He never does anything with it other then giving it to the oppposite side. I hope they skip him in all the attacks and rather be egocentric then play it to him. The Dutch play with 10 as long as Memphis is playing. After all these years he still has not figure out to keep things simple and he is not Messi/Ronaldo.

[@marcsugi]

Netherlands '98 - 00 were practically an All-Star team, even better as a team than the 88 who had better individuals on 4 players (the Milan trio + Koeman). They lost only on penalties both from Ronaldo's Brazil and the demi-god performance of Toldo with ultra-defensive Italian in Euro 2000 semi (and can't convert 2 penalties in normal time).

[@P0rk666]

At the bigger games, Holland really misses De Jong to cope with deep line pressure. Veerman and Reijnders are okay, but not top level.

[@rhmhnn9526]

Reijnders is better than Rabiot for example.

[@waso778]

The biggest choke of all time on the part of the Dutch was the Euro 2000 semifinal against Italy. Completely dominant performance creating chance upon chance against Zambrotta, Maldini, Nesta, etc,, getting two 100% penalties in regular time, only to miss or find the Italy goalkeeper Toldo in the way. And then losing in the penalty shootouts. We really should have played France in the final. Euro 2012 opening game against Denmark is a close second. I don’t think England has ever choked on that level. Agree with the claim though.

[@sonnyirish3678]

This is nothing personal but I have found some of the England games not very good.Holland are a pale imitation of the great sides and players they once had.If they meet then anyone could win but Switzerland are a very good team.They may not have lauded players but they have a good coach and they are a team.

[@user-kt2zx4iv4f]

I wouldn't count my chickens. This England team has all the makings of a team that plays what looks like bad but somehow seems to get thru. They have been doing that since 2018. It is so because they can defend and gives up very few chances. Its not pretty but its effective. And they have had a little luck which is needed. I am not saying they will win the trophy but you write off Gareth at your own peril. Their biggest problem is goals. Without Sterling they have no creativity. The last Euro he was responsible for 7 goal scoring opportunities out of 11 that took them to the final. Since his departure no one has stepped up.

Only France could say their defenders are on par with the Netherlands. Also Verbruggen is a great Goalie and has the potential to be as good as Van der Sar. The midfielders on the other hand should be of a great level with Frenkie De Jong and Koopmeiners. But without those central 2 who bring so much balance, that is their real weak spot. Attacking halve isn't great either, but with Gakpo and Malen. They again have good potential and both very fast wingers. No it's fair to say, if anyone wants to see the Netherlands undone.

England won't make the final 😂

England won’t make the semifinals

[@waso778]

😅😅😅😅

[@jooproos6559]

Its not Holland!!!Its the Netherlands!!!😠

[@noelculpitt3578]

Holland probably turn Iceland over in Amsterdam is my guess ...no excuses

[@Alfredromeothatsme]

Well on current form the Dutch would win easy!

[@Accidentshappen222]

England used up all its luck vs Slovakia, bye bye england

[@ptm8375]

Netherlands couldnt win wc98: because an arab ref decided brazil needed to get through= he had his eyes closed with an obvious penaltykick..u know what im talking bout. These euros the refs also arent clean. This time germany needs to win and the both english clown refs shouldve been send home but get rewarded with qf matches

[@ste122113]

I backed Holland at 16/1 with 500euro on it and it would change myself and my family’s life if they win it Let’s go a Holland 🇳🇱👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@DavidWilliams-hy1qk]

He sounds like a South African.

[@mariodriessen9740]

That’s probably due to the fact that they used to speak Dutch in South Africa. And in large parts of South Africa they still speak a language that is extremely similar to Dutch. So our ‘accents’ are pretty much identical in some cases.

[@61tomtomtom]

Looks like England wins easy from The Netherlands. What a clown .

[@ulfanfinneriksen4643]

I don't think so Rene. You looked against Romania, but they aren't even comparable to England.

[@HHh-ug4oe]

Yes England are far worse

[@Fcker-oi8ex]

Correct, England are boring as sin and Holland actually score goals.

England is the weakest team left, if you go by their performances. Which is actually what counts.

[@mr.chocolate3721]

I have no doubt either. The English team is all hype

[@malloott]

Well England will lose to Switzerland for sure so this won't be a problem..

[@Richard-fv7rq]

Not for sure. But likely.

[@jlhus5615]

His deluded England have a much better squad and depth

[@Fcker-oi8ex]

Where have they shown that?

[@chrisbaldwin3609]

😅

[@mariodriessen9740]

England arguably has the best players. However, they also have Southgate managing the team. Southgate is the reason why most of your top players played like 💩. The Dutch team played like 💩 as well in the first three games, so I think there’s a 50/50 chance of getting through to the finals.

[@jlhus5615]

@@mariodriessen9740 well Southgate is our best manager we won't get a better British manager than Southgate look at what his achieved

[@mariodriessen9740]

@@jlhus5615 : What did he achieve? One lost final? Just look at the the first three games. The choices he makes. I don’t trust his decisions. With the players you have, you should have won all four games with ease.

Holland have played one decent game so far ... Romania were awful...we will beat Switzerland snd then Turkey in the semis
