The best man in Dutch football history


In the 1970s, the Dutch famous coach Michels will learn from the English famous coach Reynolds of the "total attack and defense" tactics back to the Netherlands, carry forward, since the Dutch football attack and defense, the scene of assault such as fire, fast, thunderous, so that countless fans are fascinated. However, the Dutch team reached the final of the two consecutive World Cups, but narrowly lost to West Germany and Argentina, respectively, and finished second.

In 2010, the Netherlands reached the final for the third time, losing 0-1 after extra time to Spain. In 2014, the Netherlands reached the semi-finals, losing to Argentina on penalties. Since then, the Netherlands has achieved the title of "uncrowned king", and this kind of incomplete beauty, but more deeply in it, the momentum of "I flower after a hundred flowers kill", and the ultimate "failure" regret, but also let the Dutch team has a large number of loyal fans, looking forward to one day the Netherlands can achieve "all the city with the Golden nail".

Tulip Army in the history of the stars gathered, the luxury of the lineup is second only to Brazil, Germany, especially in the front field is difficult to choose, I personally heart the Netherlands history of the best 11 team (343 formation), their average height reached an amazing 1.87.5 meters:

Goalkeeper: Ice Rabbit - Edwin Van der SAR (born 1970, 197cm) - one of the world's top goalkeepers, having set a record of 1,311 minutes of clean sheets in the five major leagues of European football

Van der SAR, the famous star factory Ajax produced, then has played for Juventus, Fulham, Manchester United and other clubs, helped the team to win 2 Champions League, 4 times the Dutch Championship, 3 times the English Premier League championship and other 25 championship trophies, personal also won 4 times the Dutch Best goalkeeper, 2 times the European Best goalkeeper, 1 time the English Premier League Golden Glove Award and other honors. He also set a European football record of 1,311 minutes without conceding a goal in the top five leagues.

At the national team level, Van der SAR represented the Netherlands in 3 World Cups and 4 European Championships, and was selected to the best team of the European Cup. He is the second most capped player for the Netherlands, and has 72 clean sheets in 130 international appearances, which is the majority of the games Van der SAR played, the Netherlands did not concede a goal. Because of Van der SAR's strength, calm temperament, and long ears, Dutch fans call him the "ice rabbit".

Van der SAR is 1.97 meters tall, tall, accurate judgment, appropriate selection, save big open big close, imposing momentum, opponents are often intimidated not to fight with them. At the same time, as a full-attack Dutch goalkeeper, van der SAR has a strong sense of fast attack and ability, throwing the ball very far away, and can trigger a quick counterattack from the first time in the penalty area, repeatedly helping the Dutch team and the club to play an impossible attack.

Defender (1) : defender with knife - Koeman (born 1963, height 181cm) - and the "Three Musketeers" and known as the "Dutch four days King" star, scoring like a defender

Koeman, has played for the Dutch top three Groningen, Ajax, PSV Eindhoven and Barcelona, Spain, has helped the team to win two European Champions Cup titles, four Dutch champions, four Spanish champions and other trophies, he was twice named the best athlete in the Netherlands.

Koeman is not only defensively solid, but he is also one of the team's main scoring points, in three years at PSV Eindhoven, he scored 51 goals in 94 games as a defender, and in five years at Barcelona, he scored 67 goals in 192 games, a goal efficiency that would put most strikers to shame. Not only was he the main man in the Netherlands' first European Cup victory, he was also the main man in Barca's first Champions League and the first player to help two different clubs win the Champions League.

Koeman is strong, energetic, accurate in tackling, timely in filling positions, and does a very good job of cooperating with teammates and is a moving barrier on the back line. Although the speed is not fast, the turn is a little slow, but he has a strong ability to read the game, can make predictions in advance, defuse the threat in advance, and has a super attack ability, especially the powerful free kick, is one of the strongest shooting power in the world. His reputation is not as famous as the three Musketeers of Milan, mainly because the influence of La Liga is far less than that of Serie A, and his position is relatively far behind, and in the Dutch national team at that time, he and the "three Musketeers" are known as the "Dutch four Days King".

Defender (2) : Tough guy - Stam (born 1972, height 191cm) - once the most expensive defender in world football, a man who has frozen the Luo one-on-one

Stam was once the most expensive defender in the world, one of the best centre-backs in the world at the end of the 90s, even the first. He has won the Premier League title, the Dutch Championship, the Champions League, and is also the main central defender of Manchester United during the Treble. In 1998, Stam moved from PSV Eindhoven to Manchester United for an estimated £10.6 million, becoming the most expensive defender in world football at the time and the most expensive player in Dutch football history.

Stam is 1.91 meters tall, tall, robust, fierce and tenacious style, outstanding air defense ability, is the anchor of the defensive line and the mainstay. His peak game was in the 1998 World Cup semi-final one-on-one defense successfully frozen "alien" Ronaldo, hailed as the world's best central defender at the time.

Few may know that the world's top centre-back never trained professionally until the age of 18, when he met former Holland international Thiorgon while playing on a wild pitch. De Jong watched his game with great emotion, thinking that this physically strong, fierce teenager can become a top player, so he began to say it constantly. After that, Stam gave up his electrician dream and was caught playing football, so there was less of a "good electrician" in the world and more of a "back gate".

Defender (3) : the strongest in active service - Van Dijk (born in 1991, 193cm) - recognized as the first central defender in active world football, the transfer price of more than 100 million defensive general, van Dijk is a player after 90, young and strong, known as the world's best central defender.

He was brought to the Premier League by Southampton following his success in the Scottish Premiership and was subsequently taken by Liverpool for a record £75m in 2018, when he was voted both PFA and Premier League official player of the year.

In Europe, Van Dijk helped Liverpool win the Champions League and was named the best player of the Champions League Final and UEFA's Best Player.

The combination of him and Salah has allowed Liverpool to achieve the longest winning streak in Premier League history, 18 consecutive games, and has made Liverpool one of the most powerful clubs in the world.

Van Dijk is known as the number one centre-back in active service and the most expensive centre-back of all time. First of all, he is 1.93 meters tall, 92 kilograms in weight, fast moving, strong jumping ability, strong protection ability for the restricted area, is the barrier in front of the goalkeeper; Second, he has a strong dribbling ability, can calmly bring the ball out under the high position of the other side, and then accurately pass to the front of the teammates; Third, his long ball is very accurate, when the other side is not close to him, he can quickly and accurately pass to the fast forward player; Fourth, his speed and strength are strong, one-on-one defense ability is also top; Fifth, he made few mistakes, played very stable, is a reliable gate on the back line. He is also a player that every manager would like to have at the moment.

It is a great pity that van Dijk seems unable to change the Netherlands for the runner-up, in 2019 van Dijk and the Netherlands are still won the UEFA National League runner-up, but also due to injury failed to participate in the 2021 European Cup.
