The three Dutch basic players from Barcelona made little impression on the analysts of Barcelona on Tuesday evening RTL7. Luuk de Jong, Memphis Depay and Frenkie de Jong were all unable to play a decisive role against Bayern Munich (0-3). Jan Boskamp is particularly critical of Frenkie de Jong, while Ron Vlaar believes that Depay failed to take on a leadership role.

Boskamp lights out for a moment after an hour of playtime. Jamal Musiala, a star on the side of Bayern Munich, received the ball from Alphonso Davies about 25 meters from the goal. Bayern’s attack then gained momentum. Musiala played Leon Goretzka and walked on himself; through Goretzka Thomas Müller got the chance to control the Musiala that had passed through. The pass was a little too sharp, allowing Marc-André ter Stegen to pluck the ball out of the air. Nevertheless, the situation was threatening and, according to Boskamp, ​​illustrative. “Now they are getting out. Then you’re too late. They have a lot of space and just walk by it goes. You should also look at Frenkie and at the left back (Jordi Alba, ed.). What is that? The midfielders let so many people walk.”

Boskamp describes the performance of the Dutch trio as ‘just mediocre’. “Luuk de Jong had a thankless job to play like that. Then you might as well just roll me onto the field.” Vlaar agrees that the debuting striker was ‘totally unable to play in his strength’, because the game was not geared to him. “Depay has suffered a lot of ball loss. In such a match you want to see another Depay, who takes his team in tow, but you have not seen him at all. He was invisible.”
