Memphis Depay remains a very important link at the Orange in De Boer’s eyes. The attacker was the undisputed striker under Koeman, but has now moved somewhat against his will to the left-winger position.
According to De Boer, this in no way irritates the Olympique Lyonnais attacker. “Everyone underestimates how serviceable Memphis is. He might want to play in the front line, but for the team he’s fine with playing left winger.
Is Memphis a source of irritation?
Van der Vaart: “I think that if you have a player like Memphis, you should just let him do his thing. He is a player who creates the most, but I have the feeling that a lot of people are annoyed by him. . “
Vermeulen: ‘I don’t really think that at all. I think that’s a cliché. “
Van Hooijdonk: “Perhaps people are annoyed because he puts so much risk in his game. A lot goes wrong, but also a lot goes right.”
De Boer: “Memphis also says to me: if I have to get rid of it, then I have to get it. Partly thanks to their discipline in the field, we were able to play so well against Italy.”
