As his new side defeated RKC Waalwijk 4-1 in the Economia on Sunday, the former Liverpool captain watched twice, with Brian Brobbey scoring twice in the first half for the Dutch struggling veterans.

Erik ten Hag's cup final record ahead of Manchester United FA Cup bid

www.dailymail.co.uk, June 1, 2023
With a dual purpose, Manchester United's Erik ten Hag will lead Manchester United into the FA Cup finals this weekend. Firstly, the Dutch coach will want to complete what has been a fruitful first season at Old Trafford. Ten Hag has returned to the Champions League for a third-place finish and snapped a six-year trophy drought by lifting the Carabao Cup. United are out to stop Manchester City from emulating their historic Treble of Premier League, FA Cup, and Champions League from 1999. Nothing would be sweeter in the eyes of United fans than seeing the sanctity of that historic victory preserved at Wembley on Saturday afternoon. Despite City's success this season, it may be a case of simpler said than done. Ten Hag also has a solid track record when it comes to the crunch cup finals, which we'll explore here.

Louis van Gaal's 'CHILLING' announcement of Holland's World Cup squad has shocked viewers

www.dailymail.co.uk, November 11, 2022
Holland certainly has the most unique and eerie one so far as far as World Cup squad announcements are concerned. On Friday morning, the Oranje took to Twitter to post a video in which manager Louis van Gaal revealed his picks. However, he did not do so in a traditional way but rather read them out on a chair in a dim room with dramatic music playing in the background.

Why it's great to have Holland back at the World Cup after their 2018 disappointment

www.dailymail.co.uk, October 31, 2022
Holland is back at the World Cup, with a crew brimming with stars and promising young prospects, they are confident of making a difference in Qatar. The Dutch were left red faced after failing out on Russia 2018 by finishing third in their qualifying group, behind eventual champions France and Sweden. But this time, they had no difficulty getting to Qatar, winning seven of their ten matches to finish first in their group. And who better to lead them in the Middle East? Louis van Gaal will be in charge of guiding the Oranje in Qatar, having previously led them to a third-place finish in Brazil. So, why is it so great to see Holland back in the World Cup? Well, there are a few reasons, but Sportsmail has rounded them up below.

'Bro, that is just disrespectful! Calvin Bassey, a defender for Ajax, mocks outrage in a humourous video.'

Clavin Bassey, an Ajax defender, would not believe he was only a silver card in FIFA 23 and thought the rating was 'disrespectful' to him. Professional footballers will be able to find their ratings on the game in two weeks. For certain players, it doesn't matter, but for those that play FIFA 23, their EA Sports' rating is a matter of pride, since it will determine how well they're on the game.

In a Champions League match, Liverpool should be aware of the Ajax threat

www.dailymail.co.uk, September 13, 2022
Early season results have included a 6-1 win over Groningen, a 4-0 victory over Cambuur, and Heerenveen's 5-0 thrashes. Ajax started their Champions League campaign with a 4-0 loss to Rangers last week, where the Scottish club's class difference was painfully apparent. So, despite Antony and Sebastien Haller's departures in the summer, who were responsible for 46 percent of their goals last season, they don't appear to be any worse off when it comes to finding the net. Ajax have averaged 3.5 goals per game this season, including the curtain-raising Johan Cruyff Shield, who lost 5-3 to PSV Eindhoven. All of which bodes not well for Liverpool's out-of-sorts team, who welcome Ajax to Anfield on matchday two of the Champions League on Tuesday night.

Ten Hag sent the 20-year-old striker a text to see if he'd be interested in moving to Old Trafford, but he turned down his former boss's offer of a £14.7 million transfer back to de Godenzonen from RB Leipzig. Brobbey has been in fine form for Ajax this season, scoring and assisting from the bench in his third game against Fortuna Sittard, and he has since started the Amsterdam club's following two games. "I absolutely wanted to go to Ajax," Brobbey told Dutch publication Voetbal International. Erik also wanted to work with me, texted once if I were interested in it, but I thanked him generously. I wanted to go back [to Ajax] and visit Ajax. It wasn't finished, or even started by my friends here, Ajax's playing style. I have to first succeed as a striker of Ajax. That's also how the first six months felt, when I played here on a rented basis. I had the feeling afterwards: I must go back.'
