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

Just in case the rumour above is true?

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
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You do realise our best defender was sent off

----------------------------------------------------------------------

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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Come on the second goal was Sunday league stuff, Holes just ran through the middle unopposed despite two Dutch defenders being in the vicinity.

It’s like the Spurs vs Ajax second leg where Llorente was brought on and Spurs played long balls up to him - Ten Hag didn’t know what to do and again De ligt absolutely shiiit the bed

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.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
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.....
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Mc laren won it spending very little with one of the non elite Dutch sides - whereas he was known in England as the wally with the brolly

The Netherlands with Virgil would have beaten the Czech. Any team will miss the best defender in the world as we have seen with us in the league this season.

Twente we're cooking the books and had engaged in dodgy financial constructions at that time. He won a dodgy title with players bought with dodgy money.

Anyway I am not going to engage in a 7 day back and forth with you, I am no MAF

England dont produce good football managers.

A small country like the Netherlands had more impact on the game than England. Cruyf one of the best ever players in the world was instrumental making Barca one of the best clubs in the world and his coaching tactics are still used to this days by many football countries around the world

Winterbottom and Chapman were every bit as influential before Cruyff was even born. England only have 1 World Cup to show for it and the Dutch 1 Euros.

But who cares about any of that, the current Dutch side can’t defend and I called it

Nope, I never bet more than a tenner and the returns on that are just pointless. I did also think Wales and Portugal would win, so would have been on a loss overall anyway
