No idea why they went all out on North Macedonia. They were already through and should have rested up a load of players.

That had nothing to do with the result.

Van Basten did that and we lost to Russia

Red card killed us

And lack of a proper striker. Dutch missed so many chances.

They had Weghorst playing, he has a 1 in 2 record in Germany, he is a proper striker.

They just can’t defend, the second goal was ridiculous with Holes running between the CB and RB - why did they both step up, why didn’t one cover the other.

The Dutch are very entertaining, but half the reason for that is because they love giving the opposition loads of space to exploit at the back

On a serious note, he is awful and the Dutch should be getting much better

In fairness they are missing arguably the best centre half on the planet which im sure would have made a difference to their defending.

Agree on de boer though, very inept.

Wijnaldum should’ve played centre back

De boer is such a sheit manager

Didn’t he lose all 7 games or something and palace sacked him, some sort of a premier league record

While I appreciate vvd de boer would’ve managed to isolate him 3v1 with his tactics

Koeman got them qualified with flying colours and they looked a unit, promptly facked off to Barcelona leaving them with de boer

Going down to 10 men was the reason they lost, not down to the manager. Thst said they are not a great side.

Jurgen, is that you?

I said the Dutch would be out as soon as they faced a team who could counter attack

Was clearly the poor red card decision which cost them. Czech Republic aren't a good team but against ten men of Netherlands, good enough.

Yes after slipping over and doing the front crawl.

But I was calling it after the North Macedonia game where a very limited side could easily have scored a couple against you. The Dutch play great attacking football and are always a team I will watch but they stink at the back.

Czechs have a decent recent record against the Dutch. Personally I thought the Czechs played that game tactically very well - they missed some good chances in the first half.

I disagree with your view of the red card, for me De Ligt knew what he was doing hence the scooping action, and as it’s deliberate it’s a red all day long

De Boer has had a nightmare since leaving Ajax hasn't he?

-Sacked after 85 days by Inter
-Worst ever manager in Premier League history losing 4 games and not seeing his side scoring a goal in that time
- First ever Netherlands manager not to win any of first 4 matches and now eliminated by the Czechs

Doesn't look good for him at all.

He is proper toilet, I’m sure some will point at him winning titles at Ajax but McLaren managed to win the Eredivisie with Twente whilst pretending to be Dutch - which shows that league is piish.

A bit exaggerated, again, we had a defender sent off. Our defence may not be the best, but its not as bad as you say it is.

We had a defender sent off, and Malen was substituted, our most dangerous man.

Advocaat did the same when we played Czech in 2004., when he took off Robben, who was terrorising them.

Our league was destroyed by the money in the game, all our talent leaves too early chasing the money, mostly to the PL and Russia, and are never heard of again. Back in the days our talent stayed in the Netherlands until their prime or never left. Dutch were ripping up Europe in the 70s, and then the PL was set up.....
