Johan Derksen questions the way Ronald Koeman dealt with Óscar Mingueza on Thursday evening, who went forward with a 3-2 lead in the home game against Getafe. The Barcelona coach was furious and immediately took the center-back to the side. Derksen accuses Koeman of arrogant behavior, while the statements of the trainer about UEFA also fall very badly with the analyst.
“Koeman gets a little nasty, eh. A bit arrogant”, Derksen concludes on Friday evening. Veronica Inside. “He should have done that to Lionel Messi when he didn’t do anything. I never like that very much, from such a young boy than to get it, you know. Table mate René van der Gijp hooks up and draws a comparison with how Erik ten Hag dealt with Noa Lang in a cup match between Ajax and Telstar. “You have to keep your mouth shut and listen. Just do it. It’s not your match!”, The Ajax coach yelled from the sidelines at the time.
Van der Gijp thinks such a way of dealing with players is a bad thing. Then I thought: I find that easy, you know. While that boy did nothing. He gave the wrong ball or I know a lot. That can happen once. Maybe he should have played it to Dusan Tadic. But then he went mad too and then I thought: It’s a bit easy against such a guyPresenter Wilfred Genee then suggests that trainers use psychology with young players, but Derksen disagrees completely. “It has nothing to do with psychology.”
Derksen tackles Koeman again, this time about his statements to UEFA. In the view of the Barcelona coach, the European Football Association, like the initiators of the Super League, only thinks about money. According to Koeman, too little is listened to players and trainers and too little attention is paid to the overcrowded playing calendar. “Ridiculous what he says, really ridiculous”, Derksen spits his gall on the words of the former the Dutch national coach. “That Koeman only had one dream in his life: going to Barcelona. When you are with Barcelona, you know that you are fighting on various fronts. They are always in the cup, they participate in the competition and have the Champions League. “
“Koeman also knew that when he went to Barcelona”, Derksen continues. “And now start doing interesting things, you know. And looking for excuses. That’s what you have with all those trainers at those top clubs, then you shouldn’t work for a top club. Then you have to work for the Dutch national team, then you have one. once every three months. It’s really ridiculous. ” Genee defends Koeman somewhat by talking about the overcrowded schedule. However, Derksen is not interested in that. “You know that right, you know that right?” Said the astonished analyst. “Koeman could have taken that into account. If you are successful, you will get it.”
