Agree Marcellis was a rock and always there when a defender is needed.
This could be the “Dreaded” Team everyone fears – there’s already too much hype after one victory. – But I like your line up

I like this line up…

And yes, Marcellis is the real deal!

One player that really had me enthousiastic was Dirk Marcellis, in the entire game, he only had two flaws, one time he tried to clear but hit the ball horribly due to the pitch being a bit uneven. And one time a attacker got past him into the box and onto Velthuizen, Marcellis got a bit surprised by the strong attacker and slipped. But on the positive side, he did after a chase almost managed to get in front of the shot. Also Velthuizen did good coming out of goal.But what good defending did i see of Marcellis at times. My hopes are on him for the future Oranje defence.

I also really liked the passing and movement of Emanuelson and Sno, but i’m still a bit dissapointed, in my mind De Haan made mistakes by choosing Sibon instead of V.Bommel, Beerens instead of Amrabat(very VERY talented), and Jong-a-pin instead of Ryan Donk or even Christian Kum for that matter, Anyway Babel-Makaay works ten times better, a bit like the combination
Babel-Rigters
My line-up would be
Babel-Makaay
Drenthe-Emanuelson-Sno-De Guzman(actual positions could be swapped)
Pieters-Jaliens-Marcellis-Zuiverloon
Velthuizen
By the way, noticed we have 4 brothers with dreads, 3 in my line-up

Haha Jan – I should be so lucky!
Ronald I even saw Urby scream up the right hand flank as well – no one expecting/covering him ! Now thats the Dutch Way of playing

De Haan was true, Urby make the difference, he’s far better than Bakkal in the 1st half. But I can tell you guys that he’s playing in central midfield along with Maduro, not the left midfielder as mentioned. Left midfielder was Drenthe then Bereens.
