Well.. to be honest... we (the Dutch) had van Basten as coach with no experience at all.. (only coaching the youth team from Ajax) We did alright... if he can get the right staff around him it could be a good thing... but ofcourse van Basten has a "clean" history...

 

u mean in euro 2008?

I don't know I felt the good results were due to the failures of others "italy and france" , they sucked hard

plus, the front line helped van basten a lot

I'm not a dutch man but I love football ^^

Well at least we qualified easily for the World Cup & European Cup.. and past the first round both tournaments with van Basten..

And he had to build an entire new team when he started.. so he did alright..  but yes who wouldn't with a front line with van Nistelrooy, Robben & van Persie.. and behind them van der Vaart & Sneijder.. & Kuijt & Babel on the bench...

 

Van Basten's team was a great one, I never had been a fan of the Dutch team (nor did I dislike them), but seeing they play, they won me, I love the football they played, specially in the matches against France and Italy in the Euro, that was some exhibition of football.

Still, I can imagine Van Basten more of a thinker than Diego. For example, would you imagine Diego sitting all day at home watching videos of his next opponent. I don't. Besides, in an interview some days ago he said the players he'd field if he were coach of the Selección. Trust me, it was awful
