In selection, as with Liverpool, Virgil van Dijk is struggling to regain his best level. Less well with the Reds, the Dutch defender also did not reassure for the last selection rally. Following the rout of his family last Friday against France (4-0), and a victory against Gibraltar (3-0), which, in content, was disappointing, the captain of the Oranje was singled out by Marco van Basten and Ruud Gullit.
He makes noise, but he says nothing. It is not clear. A good captain thinks out loud and clearly explains what’s going on. He stays between the two. It causes chaos and this leads to misunderstandings. This is precisely what you, as a captain, must prevent. In technical and tactical football terms, he is not. We need someone else on the lawn. And it has nothing to do with his injury, it concerns his leadership, first reacted Van Basten, on Ziggo Sports. “”you are captain, you have to solve this”. But he only comments timidly on what is happening in front of him (…) It is a positive criticism that we give him. You are the best ? So show it”added Ruud Gullit.
