robben won't be coming

Robben best player in the WC for me. Unplayable at times. Vlaar is very very average. yes he had a good WC but ask any Villa fan (and I know a few) and they are gobsmacked at just how well he played.
I would take De Vrij only from that Dutch side as Robben will stay at Bayern

Blind could do a job as well. In the second eleven squad category that is.

How about Martins Indi. I'm surprised no one has mentioned him. Very tidy defender

He really isn't. He is ponderous on the ball, flat-footed and prone to dirty play. He is a walking red card for me.

Dutch players in the WC are pretty average individually, but worked hard and the collective where far more than the sum of their parts.

v.Persie had a stinker, was he the player caught offside the most? Still the joint holder of the best goal in the tourney (with James Rodriguez) that diving header a work of art.

The Dutch performance in the world cup with the average set of players they had was exceptional. Yet another reason to be excited by the LVG appointment.

What he has achieved would be like taking England to the semis. Imagine England had achieved that. We would have all been over the moon. England arguably have a better squad as well.

Id only take Blind from this Holland squad, apart from Robben. I never heard of the guy till the WC tbh. Blind is the second best Dutch player in the WC. he was brilliant. Good positioning and tactical discipline combined with good passing and ball controlling skill. I heard his record at Dutch league is pretty awsome as well.

I wont take any of their CB, Most CBs would look world class when playing in a 3 CB system imo

Anyone not rating Stefan de Vrij is going to be surprised. We are most likely selling him to Man U, regardless of the Lazio rumours, as LVG seems to want him.

Yeah, OP you only missed out by a whisker.

This article is a bit special.
