One time I did go to a Chicago Fire match. But how friggin lame is that name? I mean I get it we had a fire in Chicago and..well wait, people died in that fire and stuff..so that is certainly a strange choice. But I guess time heals all wounds. Well I guess time probably doesn't heal third degree burns.

Especially the ones mimicking European-style names. Real Salt Lake? Who made that shit up?

I'll remember that when the next World Cup comes around.

Not even good ass, too!

This is the worst Dutch team I've seen in my life-time though. I'm afraid we'll have another spell like '78 to '88.

Really, half of the Dutch FA needs to be sacked and replaced immediately. This is roughly the same team that LvG got to a third place finish at the last World Cup. It's ridiculous how they're playing now, but obviously the talent is there. Leads me to believe the problem is with the coaching.

Is the talent really there tho like 2010 was their chance now they're going through a transitional period the old stars aren't so great and is there any young Dutch hope a la bale? I don't think so

They managed to get a third place in 2014, so it's not like they've been shit from 2010 onward. The old stars have all been injured.
How would you know? You only follow the BPL. Do you even think before you post? 😐

Janssen scored over 20 goals in his first professional season at the highest level and scored against England in his debut for the national team, so there's hope for him. There's a lot of expectations for Bazoer and Depay was brilliant at PSV. Hopefully he can get over the dip in form he's had during his first season at United. He should just try to go out on loan the next season to get over it, he probably won't get a chance at United.

Even without them, the Dutch team should be able to qualify for a tournament easily. Most of our players are in the BPL, Bundesliga or La Liga. If teams like Albania, Wales or Iceland can, we should be able to as well, even without stars like Robben.

I watch the championship too

So often foreign players come here and turn to shit

It's Van Gaal's fault really. He threw him in the deep end but gave him no support when he was struggling. It's easier to perform for players like Lingard and Rashford who have been at the club all their life and are comfortable there. Depay moved to a different league, different country etc. He should've been given more support when he was struggling early on. I hope he can turn it around still. Then again, Robben 'failed' at Chelsea as well and look how he eventually turned out.

I thought robben was awesome back then, still had his hair too

Smh tbh fam
