That's exact what it is. He refuses to play like a striker for large parts of games and that impacts everybody else.

Half space Mount is elite. One of the very best at receiving the ball on the half-turn. His assists and goals should go up another level at club level with Lukaku as the focal point.

Then you have to ask why Harold drops deep. At spurs it's clear why, spurs dont have a competent midfield to feed the ball forward. Kane rarely ever dropped deep with ball carriers like Dembele and AMs like Eriksen while spurs. It is the same at england with the typical trash MF southgate fields. Mount was utter trash at the Euro's regardless of where Kane positioned himself. If i recall the most fluid England looked was when Mount was dropped and Sancho slotted in for the Ukraine game

the best diaspora nationals team from one nation in one nation of all time?

surinamese in the netherlands

Everyone is out of position in defence and midfield.

Reiziger VVD Bogarde
Rijkaard
Seedorf Davids
Gini
Gullit Kluivert Babel

Apart from the 3 modern players the rest all played the 433/343. All you do is drop Rijkaard to CB. To make it a 433

Now you could go to the Euro 88 team which was more unDutch 442

Menzo
Reiziger Rijkaard VVD Bogarde
Davids
Gini Seedorf
Gullit
JFH Kluivert

Sub Winter.

*edit*

Vanenburg and Bryan Roy are much better than Babel.

Menzo
Reiziger VVD Bogarde
Rijkaard
Seedorf Davids
Gullit
Vanenburg Kluivert Roy


Martinique and Guadeloupe probably have the strongest case to match them. Definitely on a 5/6 a side flex. 11 aside :patrice:

I mean i’m not sure the team was meant to be that deep but yeah, Wijnaldum at CB when Rijkaard is in midfield and can easily play/played CB:mjcry:
