The Everton stopper has is of the view that the Oranje should now look forward under the stewardship of new boss Louis van Gaal, and not dwell on their Euro 2012 memories.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 to put behind their poor showing at UEFA Euro 2012, while stressing that every Oranje player must focus on the future under the leadership of new coach, Louis van Gaal.
After finishing runners-up at 2010 World Cup under Bert van Marwijk’s stewardship, the Flying Dutchmen entered UEFA Euro 2012 as pre-tournament favourites. However, three defeats in a row against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Portugal-c2984 ended
the Dutch’s European Championship voyage in a disappointing manner.
In the aftermath of the Euro 2012 disaster, Van Marwijk was dismissed on mutual consent from his coaching position, and the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Royal-95-c40387 Dutch Football Association (KNVB) appointed Van Gaal as the new manager.
And the former Ajax stopper has stressed that Netherlands should forget about their disappointing performances in http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Ukraine-c3032, and look ahead on the future.
“The European championships (performance by us) was mediocre, but let us not forget that under him (Van Marwijk) we also came second in the World Cup. It is now time to look ahead, however. I want the next two years to be of value
to this team and I know that I can be - and at http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Everton-c13019, should I start playing again”, Heitinga was quoted as saying to De Telegraaf.
The Oranje have commenced their 2014 World Cup qualification campaign with a 2-0 win over http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Luciano-c22574 Narsingh helped the Dutch to claim three vital points at the end.
Van Gaal opted to give Tim Krul a chance between the sticks, and he did not disappoint his coach. However, the Newcastle United goalkeeper has sustained an injury, and it seems unlikely that he will be enjoying any playing time
in his side’s upcoming qualifier game.

The young glovesman was extremely delighted to be part of the Oranje squad, and is looking forward to be training with Stekelenburg and Vorm.
“I have packed my bag with a big smile. It is a very beautiful thing that I get the chance to show myself. I look forward to training with Maarten Stekelenburg and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michel-Vorm-c25482”, Zoet said while talking to journalists.
Netherlands will battle against http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Hungary-c2920 on September 11.
