Every league has a few great players. Nee offence to the Dutch like! Afonso Alves actually was very good before his Boro move. Either way, it's still possible to be a very good player and never to have quite made it in England. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest chicken little Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 ignoring the notion of standard (in a generalised sense), the style of Dutch football is incredibly different to the English game (primarily it is much slower) so I don't read much into players excelling in one but not the other.

Kanj Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 Look man, he played for us in our absolute rockiest of bottoms when we couldn't score a fucking goal to save our life in a team that looked as timid, boring, and weak as anything I've ever seen from us. We looked as shit if not shittier than the relegation season. I can't imagine anyone bar Demba Ba and Loic Remy scoring goals for us. He played fucking awful for us don't get me wrong, but a lacking confidence striker who relies on service who plays for a team at its lowest, not creating chances isn't going to score a single fucking goal.

Kanj Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 But I'll be damned those 3 s*** shots he took outside the box. Did score one goal but Sissoko was offsides Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillClinton Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Look man, he played for us in our absolute rockiest of bottoms when we couldn't score a f***ing goal to save our life in a team that looked as timid, boring, and weak as anything I've ever seen from us. We looked as s*** if not shittier than the relegation season. I can't imagine anyone bar Demba Ba and Loic Remy scoring goals for us. He played f***ing awful for us don't get me wrong, but a lacking confidence striker who relies on service who plays for a team at its lowest, not creating chances isn't going to score a single f***ing goal. Agree with this. Think he could have been a decent player had he not come in just about the worst circumstances possible. Surprised it didn't scare away his brother Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I've never seen somebody so unable to strike a ball cleanly or get involved in the game positively. I remember him play OK away at Hull when they were beyond shite but that's about it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Eredivisie is a league full of young promising players still developing. Naive defending coupled with an inclination towards attacking football breads goalscoring forwards. It's actually been great at producing strikers over the years (Suarez, van Nistelrooy, Romario, Ronaldo, Bergkamp, RvP, Makaay, Ibrahimovic, Huntelaar, Bony etc) but its also inflated the records of some average players (Ruiz, Altidore, Kezman, El Hamdoui, Bas Dost, Nkufo, Vennegoor of Hesselink etc). Even Michael Higdon scored 14 there last season. It's hit and miss, but de Jong scoring some goals again now he's back really doesn't prove much. He was poor in Germany and here. Languid, slow running style, and no aggression to his play for such a big striker. You need ridiculous technique (Berbatov) or be a first rate poacher (Gomez) to make up for those deficiencies.
