Goodbye Koeman, Hello De Boer
from The Clockwork Oranje Podcast · host Finley Crebolder
Frank de Boer is the new Oranje manager, but how did he get the job and will he be any good? All is discussed in the podcast's latest episode.Finley Crebolder is once again joined by Dutch football journalist Peter McVitie, and the pair start off by looking back at Ronald Koeman's time in charge. It featured some great moments but, considering it ended before a major tournament, can it really be considered a success?They then move on to analysing how the KNVB went about finding a replacement. They apparently approached Frank Rijkaard and Peter Bosz but, all things considered, it's hard to think that they ever wanted anyone other than De Boer, which is a concern in itself.Finally, De Boer himself is discussed, with the main focus being on the period that ultimately got him the job - his time in charge of Ajax. His tactics, beliefs, strengths and weaknesses are all looked at in-depth.Taking all of the above into account, Finley and Peter then give their overall thoughts on whether it's a good appointment or not and predict how far the Netherlands will get at the Euros next summer.
