Today Inside points, among other things, to a former PSV player: “Where are we even looking at?”

1 min read

The gentlemen of Vandaag Inside, more than two weeks after the elimination of the Netherlands national team at the World Cup in North America, once again provided a look back at the performances of Oranje. Ronald Koeman’s team was eliminated in the second round on penalties due to Morocco’s doing.

Former PSV player René van der Gijp is especially critical of the interviews that the players of the Netherlands national team have given during the tournament. Van der Gijp also believes that active footballers have little fun to talk about, and that that is enough reason not to invite them to the table.

In doing so, the analyst points to former PSV player Denzel Dumfries. ''For example, that Dumfries. He seems like an incredibly nice guy. Then at the World Cup they ask him, suppose Real Madrid keeps going. Then you can say, that's really my dream. Then he says he is focusing on the World Cup. And then I really think, come on man. What are we even looking at?'', the Dordrecht resident wonders out loud.

Johan Derksen is especially critical of captain Virgil van Dijk. ''That captain of the Netherlands national team is also one of those politically correct know-it-alls'', said Derksen.

In addition, the bearded analyst also has harsh words for the entire Netherlands national team. ''If Curaçao participates, then you have a weak spot there. Those Netherlands national team players all think they’re very good, but they simply don’t show it,'' concludes De Snor.

lol die comment over "zwak voor Curaçao" slaat nergens op. Ja ze hebben niet overtuigend gespeeld, maar zo collectief afbranden is gewoon zoeken naar drama. Dumfries die "Real Madrid" wegfiltert is juist slim als je gefocust wil blijven, no cap.

Tbh Van der Gijp met die Dumfries snap ik wel. Als je echt geïnterviewd wordt, zeg dan gewoon eens wat met inhoud in plaats van dat WK-antwoordje standaard gedoe. Maar Virgil als "politiek correcte wijsneus" is ook wel weer lekker overdreven hoor.
