‘He is the best player in the Dutch team, Frenkie delivers far too little’

Valentijn Driessen thinks Memphis Depay is currently the best player in the Dutch team, he said on Wednesday at Today Inside. The head footballer of The Telegraph thinks the attacker is better than Frenkie de Jong, among other things.

Driessen thinks that the Dutch team will be back in the house on July 6. The quarter-finals will be played on that day. “We can be very happy with that,” he says. “I watched the Dutch national team for 180 minutes and saw maybe three good attacks.”

Then it’s about Memphis. “That is by far the best player of the Dutch national team,” said Driessen. “Even if he is not one hundred percent fit. Frenkie delivers far too little, I think. He must deliver more.”

Johan Derksen agrees. “Frenkie only gives wide passes and has actions across the width. He never enters the opponent’s penalty area and never scores. That is really a shortcoming.”

“He is now at an age where he has to make actions in the opponent’s box, but you never see him there,” he continues. the moustache.

Driessen especially questions the Oranje system. “One time it is 4-3-3 with someone on the right who has to play right winger (Frimpong, ed.). That boy did not understand it at all. He really did not understand what he had to do.”

Driessen has created a starting spot in his favorite European Championship line-up for the currently injured Justin Bijlow and Jurriën Timber. Georginio Wijnaldum can also count on a starting spot.

Valentine’s line-up: Bijlow; Dumfries, Timber, Van Dijk, Aké, Hartman; De Jong, Reijnders, Wijnaldum; Bergwijn, Memphis.
