Koeman is the biggest rat goin
He got a groundsman at everton sacked for using the lawnmower when he was coaching
Sent dunc over to tell him to turn the mower off and go home
Strange decision, especially as Koeman might need Bergwijn in future. Should never burn bridges. Koeman has always struck me as a little bit odd.
I fully agree with Koeman. But about communication Cascarino has a point.
I feel it's hard enough for international managers with so little time with the players on the training field, so they have to judge a lot on the clubs??? For a player to go and play bounce games all year then expect to come straight into Euro qualifying or World Cup games??? 🤔 nah!!!
Im Dutch and we hate Koeman. Everything about him as a coach is just the worst in every category
26 yr old Bergwijn captain at Ajax + International
going to Saudi Competion = saying I am no longer interested to play on the highest level .
Koeman = right
The back story = Koeman as The National coach of the Netherlands always backed Bergwijn
Koeman = deeply disappointed in the move Bergwijn made
Steven Bergwijn should have phoned with Koeman before he was going to sign for Al Ihattad
most dutch internationals phoned with Koeman before they were going to sign for a new club
Bergwijn = a not so bright guy
shows a lot of wrong pride
Koeman the meme strikes again
Koeman hasn’t got the clout to do something like this.
Never speak on another's persons finances. Speak on the ambition because we knew saudi is not at thee level.
If you play in a league full of substandard players, then you aren't being pushed to be at the top of your game. Be mega mega rich or be the best you can be and still be mega rich. Up to you, but don't expect both or any sympathy when your country dumps you
Koeman was better as a player
I don’t know if there are more sports besides F1 and Premier league where it’s normal in morally corrupt England that you are taking billions of blood money dollars from horror anti human and specially anti female and gay right regimes but it isn’t in the decent Netherlands, the moral discussion was not even on the radar, you people have some serious issues
It's as simple as that: If you're playing for a top nation, you can't play in a cirkus league. And that's what Saudi Arabia is. Koeman is right 100%.
The player should decide about his own life , who is the manager to have a say in someone else's financial decisions.🤔
How can you judge a player properly if he is playing second rate football – it’s just common sense really
He should have found a team for him then blame him , just burning up 😮
He wants Saudi to appoint him as coach he will take Dutch players there 😅
League 1 players do not play fot england and this is pretty much Saudi league
Tbh I think koemans right. Plus this serves as a great example to any other Dutch players that might consider a similar transfer. If they know their spot will be gone they will think twice.
If you go to saudi arabia you are playing football for money and not because you want to be the best, so i dont think its that surprising that koeman has said that, cant have it both ways, playing in a piss poor league and still think you can be in the national team of a top nation
Koeman very off for this he sounds anti Saudi with that statement
It’s either he’s good enough for the national team or not
No matter where you play if you are a good professional then pick him.Will Koeman resist Saudi money 😂
The main point is that Koeman did not communicate this with Bergwijn first , he should have done that ,also double standard ,as Gini Wijnaldum was selected while playing in SA.. Koeman stating it was the only contry were he could go and keep playing is a lie as Gini could have gone to Feyenoord ,but he did not want to cut his salary.
France used Kante who plays in Saudi at the Euro, Portugal used Ronaldo, Spain used that center back. All these teams have won something in recent years and the Dutch have not. They think they are special and the other nations are not football wise?
