Well I was worried when I saw your average rating of 63 against Jamaica I have to say. Our 58 tonight was our best todate, when you got 63 we were at 56. lol

I have not yet had a decent keeper to use, in fact he has only just this week passed the 1m value mark. :/

I looked for a whole week last season to find a keeper etc. I was lucky tonight in so far as I had to play a defender with absolutely no information on him, he did well for me though. You seem to have decent midfielders too, our main problem is we have absolutely no depth, I have just 3 ok strikers, 5 defenders and 2 keepers, both of whom are not great. Our best area is midfield where we seem to have a bit of depth too. ;)

You seem to have decent midfielders too....

I think the problem of Nederland was on the midfield yesterday. The England mids were owning our mids. Therefore our defence was on pressure and one def had to step in to the coming midfielder, resulting in a 2 against 2 situation with your strikers. With two strikers you managed to sneak between our defence. It was also remarkable you managed to stop our wingers, even though you didn't have any pure wingbacks.

In Dutch:

Het probleem van Nederland gisteren lag op het middenveld. De middenvelders van Engeland waren de baas over onze middenvelders. Daarom kwam onze verdediging onder druk te staan en moest een verdediger instappen om de komende middenvelder op te vangen, wat resulteerde in een 2 tegen 2 situatie met jullie aanvallers (spitsen). Met twee aanvallers (spitsen) wist je door onze verdediging te komen. Ook was het opvallend om te zien dat je onze wingers wist te stoppen, ondanks het niet opstellen van pure vleugelverdedigers.

I agree with the wingers part, I have my views on that with regards to the type of players available at U21 level. Most defenders as they need just pace and defender skill are a match for wingers at u21 level. Our midfield seems to be our strongest area. However I do think your mids would match ours for ability, of course I cannot see to confirm that. I think maybe I was lucky a little yesterday.

I did guess that we would face one winger and maybe two, it was a worry for me when 2 entered the pitch. Stopping their supply was the main thing I felt.

I don't mean the personal skills of the midfielders. I mean you overruled them with 3 mids against 2 of us. It also seemed your mids had more technique than our mids had on defence.

I like technique on my mids. To keep the ball is important imo.

That's what I mean. Because of that you won the match:P

We are not blessed passing wise, our best passer has low technique so I place him accordingly in my team. My defenders I also like to have some passing and pm over defence skills as that way you can keep the ball and play from the back.

I find attackers the biggest problem at U21 level. They lose the ball too much. :/

Hmm.. beetje jammer dat. Ik had verwacht dat we met onze 2 wingers meer uit zouden richten tegen de verwachte 442 van Engeland. Helaas brachten deze dus niet genoeg blijkbaar... Heb de wedstrijd nog niet gezien dus kan verder nog niet oordelen. Ga hem deze week zeker nog bekijken (nu geen tijd).

Gelukkig konden we wat hebben, het wordt in ieder geval weer een stuk spannender nu!

wdp74 Gongratiolations with the victory. I guess you deserved it but i can't realy say because didn't see the match yet. I tought our 2 wingers would do more damage to your 4 defenders... but unfourtunatly they didn't :(.

Good luck and see you in 2 weeks ;)!

Je kan ook gewoon zeggen dat je liever gaat zuipen:P

nee dan wist ik er denk ik ook wel wat van:)

Thanks I look forward to the match. ;)

Misschien wil hij weleens alleen gaan zuipen, blijven de vrouwen eens een keer bij hem staan.

Grapje zeker? Waar was je gister en eergister dan :P?

Ga naar WKE-Rijnburgse boys zo en moest nog wat andere dingen doen. Kan hem nu misschien wel even kijken.
