The former Netherlands international feels only Lionel Messi, Neymar and Cristiano Ronaldo are worthy of that label, but insisted that Mesut Ozil and Marco Reus are very special players
The former http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 striker believes that the two nations do not possess any world-class players in their squad. He stressed that only three stars in football deserve this title, before the friendly game
of the two fierce rivals on Wednesday.
The Dutch legend claimed that Die Mannschaft are one of the top teams in the globe, but added that superstars http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904 has
a number of good young starlets among their ranks, and play wonderful attacking football.
"The German national team has developed wonderfully. Your attacking football is fantastic. You have one of the best teams in the world," he added.

Nevertheless, the former coach said that Die Nationalelf lack a truly class player. He insisted that the DFB-Eleven have only decent, very good and a few really good footballers. He suggested that only Marco Reus stands out from his country, but not even he
is an exceptional talent yet.
"There are good players, very good players, a couple of excellent ones and exactly three stars. Stars to me are just Messi, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Reus-c23733 is an excellent player, but not a super-super-super-star," he mused.
The 1988 European Championship winner further added that same is the case with the Dutch team. He revealed that the Oranje lack experience and boost of a lot of young players. He said that http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753’ best players are Robin van
Persie, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Arjen-Robben-c6521 and Rafael van der Vaart.
“[Arjen] Robben, [Robin] van Persie and [Rafael] van der Vaart. Other than that, there are many young players in the team. [Wednesday] will be very difficult for us, also because our defence is not that strong," he stated.
Gullit admitted that the national team will face problems in their clash against Germany, because the side’s defending is not that good. The 50-year-old finally said he would love to have Ozil in the Dutch side.
