R. De Boer - about the Dutch national team: J. Cruyff would turn in his grave seeing this © „Reuters“

In the past, famous Dutch footballer Ronald De Boer criticized his national team. The team, led by the brother of a celebrity - Frank, is preparing for the European Championship and in a friendly match, instead of the usual 4-3-3 formation, used a 5-3-2 tactical setup against the opponents. The match ended in a 2:2 draw. "This would make Johan Cruyff turn in his grave. Of course, this would also happen after seeing what Ronald Koeman does in "Barcelona" matches. Of course, it is a fairly attractive system, if it suits you. When two very good strikers play against your proteges, it is useful to insert two more center-backs. Then there is security and you can play in attack," R. De Boer insisted.
