Nothing to do with the Dutch being negative ya wee French lover 😛 they have injuries, overly reliant on Depay and just don't have enough quality coming through. Koeman got off to a slow start last time and then got them playing well so hopefully that will happen again. Nations League is a bit 'meh' anyway. I don't know if the allocation was split, 14,500 Croatians there, but usually Rotterdam packs out their national games. The locals don't seem that fussed.

What are they doing that we are not? I certainly don't have a clue, does anyone? It is a strange one, and a question I've often pondered. Their league is generally crap. Dinamo have won all but 1 title for like 20 years. Hajduk and Rijeka are fairly decent European teams but that's about it. I thought perhaps they had a similar approach to Uruguay and touted out all their young talents abroad at the earliest opportunity, so I was surprised to learn that with the exception of Ivan Perisic, all of Croatia's big name first team players have all cut their teeth in the Croatian league. I'm talking a good 50-60 games before moving on. I genuinely would love to know more about what it is they do. You can't even argue about them just having a 'golden generation' like Belgium either, as since they broke away from Yugoslavia they have consistently been a threat littered with some big name players.
