Petty greedy Steven Bergwijn shouldn’t whine so much about Koeman: ‘He put it perfectly’

First of all, he can thank Koeman on his bare knees for allowing him to go to the European Championship in Germany last summer. His performances at Ajax did not justify selection at all. Bergwijn has not performed well for years and has not looked fit for years either. The fact that he was allowed to go was because Koeman allowed him to. So you would think that he would have built up some credit with Bergwijn, but nothing could be further from the truth. The gentleman is offended and reacts like a spoiled child who does not get his way for once. While it is only logical that Koeman has an opinion about Bergwijn’s transfer to FC Oliegeld.

That is also what Frits Barend, the experienced journalist who has seen and experienced just about everything in football, thinks. He too was surprised by the transfer of the 26-year-old Bergwijn. Barend told Omroep PowNed: “At his age, you shouldn’t choose the money. It’s a crying shame. He’s such a nice footballer and then you go to Saudi Arabia for the money while he also earned millions at Ajax. I don’t understand it.” Barend also doesn’t understand Bergwijn’s attack on Koeman. “I’m getting so tired of it. Koeman put it perfectly. Bergwijn has to be a bit of a big boy.” Barend also thinks it’s nonsense that Koeman should have called Bergwijn, as Bergwijn says in the interview in De Telegraaf. “Koeman gave a proper answer to a question. I don’t see the problem.”

And that’s how it is. Bergwijn shouldn’t be so conceited. If you choose the dirty dollars in Saudi Arabia at such a young age, you can expect people to have an opinion about it. Rightly or wrongly. Little guy Bergwijn has probably been surrounded by fake friends for many years who all say yes and amen to him. In any case, he is clearly not used to being contradicted anymore. Sad.
