Van Basten: "Van Dijk creates chaos on the field for the Dutch national team

he Dutch national team's captain, Marco van Basten, questioned Virgil van Dijk's captaincy.

"He makes noise, but doesn't say anything concrete. It's hard to understand him. A good captain thinks out loud, makes it clear what is happening. In this situation, van Dijk is somewhere in the middle. He creates chaos. This leads to misunderstandings. This is what a captain should prevent in the team.

In the locker room Virgil is important, in football tactically and technically he is not. You need another gentleman on the field. It has to do with leadership. It's the desire to win at all costs," Ziggo Sport quoted van Basten as saying.

Despite the fact that on Monday the Netherlands won a comfortable 3-0 victory over Gibraltar in Euro 2024 qualifying, the legendary striker still hasn't gotten over the 0-4 defeat to France three days ago.
