They’re ranked 136th in the world so we should beat them but we all know Canada never make shyt easy for themselves.

If all the Dutch Surinamese players from the 80s and 90s declared for Suriname, they would’ve been a powerhouse. Davids, Seedorf, Gullit, Rijkaard, Hasselbaink, Kluivert, etc.

can we even trust that ranking as most of these dudes got their first cap this year

FIFa rankings aren’t always reliable but I’m not all the scared. Suriname’s recent results are wins over shyt teams like Cayman Islands, Bermuda and Aruba.

Pretty much any black Dutch player you know is Surinamese. They’d be running CONCACAF if they had all thier Dutch brehs.

As @Montez or @mastermind said years ago about MLS it's just one giant ponzi scheme. And making parents pay that amount is another scam especially for those so young.

@beejus can you breakdown the 3k please if you can?

Goalie training for 5-6 years olds
Paying for coaches and coaches development.

Full time professional coaching for children.
Club Offices

So you basically paying for some lazy kunts not to get a proper job and putting them thru their own training.


Can you give me some more info on size pitches, players per side, games, competitions and season duration. The age groups, kind of training they do etc etc

Would you rather live in Paris or Liverpool? While also doubling your salary at the same time

ish is a scam, like 95% of their team was born in the netherlands and 95% of these dudes only have 1-3 caps

@Jamal514

Suriname had a citizenship law up till last year that meant Dutch citizens would have give up their Dutch passport to play for their NT. Naturally 99 percent of Dutch-Surinamese players didnt want to give up their passports, so they never played for the old country.

Now that the rule has changed, and FIFA is also allowing players to make one-time switches if they had early caps, their team has transformed. Win or lose, I expect them to be a good CONCACAF team moving forward.

The same applies for Curacao btw, which is still officially part of the Netherlands. Their talent pool is smaller than Surinam, but they've also improved greatly with FIFA eligbility rules. They got Vurnon Anita playing for them now, used to play for Newcastle and played for Dutch NT a few times.

This is Germany’s best set up. Muller as a false nine with Gnarby/Sane or Werner/Havertz playing off either side of him.

Also, it’s tempting to run Goretzka and Kimkich in the midfield and keep that Bayern DNA but Kimmich has to move to RB/RWB. Germany has no real talent on the flanks when compared to other positions. Gundo, Musiala, Kroos and Goretzka can hold down the middle of the park.

Just in time to screw us over

I was wondering how all these dudes only had like 1-3 caps even though some are late twenties
