With European Football approaching, Ronald Koeman must think about which starting players he would prefer to field in order to have a chance of winning the title. In any case, Frenkie de Jong’s injury was a major loss. He is expected to be sidelined for approximately five weeks, which could jeopardize the European Championship.
Former international Wesley Sneijder is there Veronica Offside clear in who should replace De Jong if he is not fit in time. “A national coach wants to work towards a permanent team, so you don’t wait for someone. Then you might start the tournament with a different line-up. I am charmed by Timber. And yesterday (in Sunday’s cup final), he ed.) showed why again in the second half. He took Feyenoord by the hand, he was fantastic in the second half.”
In the Algemeen Dagblad, Van Hanegem already announced that he would temper expectations regarding Timber. “Of course, Quinten Timber took the lead in the battle after the break, but you can expect that. I thought all the compliments to him were a bit exaggerated. He gave everything, but that’s how it should be.”
