“The first and second stages are quite right. But ultimately about football to create chances and score goals, “said De Boer.

The test against the Frisians (with daley sinkgraven) can tempt De Boer. “It was still a little awkward. However, there were times in assists not only the striker was in the penalty area, but there three players emerged. Especially the second half saw very well that this is a big difference. We think we can use both systems in the future. Against some opponents, we can better with ten games and other times with a controlling midfielder, “said the coach who Ajax period started with a shadow striker.

De Boer experience in training what the pluses of may be a shadow striker. “When will there be a cross, from which the ball falls once behind the deepest striker, then there is someone. And it also offers advantages for the striker. You saw the Dutch team also the problem that Robin van Persie stood alone at the point of attack. The two defenders only needed to keep an eye on him. If a player is, they should also pay attention to it. It becomes easier for the striker. “



Van der Vaart

The experiment of De Boer was not related to the possible arrival of Rafael van der Vaart, who next acquisition after Nemanja Gudelj must be. “He can play at number ten, but in the rush hour as left or right winger. If we occasionally with a ten play, it is an advantage that Rafael can stand there. But it is not that we take him as a midfielder. We see him as the attacker, he also sees sit. Otherwise he would have immediately said ‘no’ “
