What is it with the dutch players ? They seem to drag aggro around with them. Great footballers but what a bunch of moaners. They should spend some time in those Amsterdam "coffee" shops and chill.

The biggest problem with players in the Dutch squad comes from the black Dutch players. It all started with Gullit. Chip on his shoulder about how he was treated by the white Dutch players, and this problem has been going on now for years.
There is open warfare between the Dutch blacks like Davids, Seedorf, Kluivert (when he was picked) and players like Van Nistelrooy.
Davids asked Advocaat why he wasn't picking more black players for the team, in front of the squad. Incredible.
Overpaid plonkers.

i think kluivert is like owen. he was a class act but just had a few poor seasons and like owen, he will soon be back to his best imo

amazing how some fans think owen had a "poor season" despite scoring 19 goals after missing 3 months and playing as a lone striker at times.

yes he did by his standards.the no of goals scored and other stupid statistics are irrelevant. he was low on confidence and missed a lot of easy chances not to mention penos. i still think he will come back to his best tho

Owen had a shocking season - he scored a few pens in that tally ( and miised a few too!) and needed 3 chances per goal, certainly not the Owen of old. His general play was poor too - he lacked any sort of sparkle and actually appeared lazy at times. I just pray he returns to something like his old self this season
