Dutch national team forward Dirk Kuyt also expressed his dissatisfaction with a substitute role.
Let's remember that in the first European Championship match, "Oranje" coach Bert van Marwijk chose Ibrahim Afellay over the 31-year-old veteran.
"I will never get used to sitting on the bench. There is always a great disappointment when it is said that I will have to watch the game from the sidelines.
"During training, I always do my job from the heart to show that I am ready, but in the end the coach decides differently," complained Fenerbahce player.
Recently, midfielder Rafael van der Vaart also complained about a substitute role in the Dutch national team.
