Frank de Boer spoke with NOS in his homeland before boarding the flight to Prague, which has since landed: “Italy were World champions in 2006 and they decided to call a Coach straight from Holland, I certainly couldn’t go in like a bull in china shop, a Dutchman who comes in and wants to explain how things are done. For that reason, I’m moving step-by-step. It wasn’t easy to come in, I had to take the place of an Italian Coach. That means there’s a lot of pressure on you, everyone looks at you with their mouths open. There are real winners here, I don’t have to push them to do things like when I was at Ajax. A simple game of handball is seen as a pleasure here, whereas at Ajax they saw it as a nuisance.”

We have a good and promising coach on FDB. Just give him enough time to rebuild our squad and playing system. Trust. That is all he need right now.
the long road begins and I think we have the right coach!
Yep, I with you and Franky on that…. I was so much against him at the beginning but he´s showing that he´s a great motivator, a hard ass boss and a great teacher of football as well, with many players improving ALOT(all the things Mancini wasn’t in fact).
