no didn’t mean the language as you’re right (I work in Amsterdam a lot and have barely heard a Dutch word). I meant more a kinship / confidence thing.
Haha me too, he will follow up with more I’m sure he owns a decking firm in Marbella and no doubt this his busiest time of year. AZ model seems to be develop and sell, whilst remaining competitive, this I do know. Some proper ballers come through AZ.
Mind, based on the Dutch World Cup/Euro squads over the years and their fall outs, having 'being Dutch' in common is no guarantee of kinship. Sorry, not meaning to be so contrary.
From what I can see, very possession heavy in 22/23, a bit more direct this season but still an emphasis on keeping the ball. Not an intense press but more of a controlled press. Create a lot of chances. Quite reliant on full backs to create chances in 22/23 especially and one of them, Kerkez, is now playing very well at Bournemouth. Very good at developing players, look at the amount of players sold for big fees during his time there. He's also very used to just being the coach, he didn't make decisions on transfers at AZ.
They churn out wing backs. Off the top of my head Stengs and Wijndal, both class players. A fit Cirks might rock his world.
Wonder why we haven’t heard anything this week is because we’ve ****ed Still off and been negotiating with Jansen
Yeah they do just looking at their outgoing transfers and half of them seem to be fullbacks going for big fees
Not sure about the link with Jansen but he absolutely fits the bill. The AZ model of developing youth selling on and using data is exactly what we are aiming for he was heavily linked with both Celtic and Rangers and also looked at by Feynord Saying all that Dutch managers do seem to struggle abroad generally well liked but seem to hit an impasse with the club Worked with a couple of Dutch lads over the years Sound but very forthright and in your face they absolutely say it as it is. Would be interesting to see how he worked with our DOF
In the last 3 years they've only brought in 2 players over the age of 25. Mat Ryan the keeper and Bruno Martins Indi and both of them were small fees/frees. He fits the model like a glove.
We can expect a new team formation then. https://www.sciencephoto.com/media/467680/view/pascal-s-triangle Cant see how we can ever lose a game.
