The former Dutch international is of the view that Netherlands and Germany have no star players in their ranks currently, though, he heaped praise on Mesut Ozil and Marco Reus.
Ruud Gullit has voiced his opinion ahead of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Netherlands-c753 friendly game against Germany on November 14 that Die Mannschaft and the Oranje both are without any ‘star’ player in their ranks, though, he has admitted that the two sides have plenty of classy players.
The former Dutch international, who represented the Flying Dutchmen in 66 games before hanging up his boots in 1994, has stressed that only http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Ronaldo-c9629 and Neymar can be considered as the true ‘stars’ of the beautiful game.
Messi and Ronaldo have been making headlines for all the good reasons week in week out while wearing http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Santos-c32532.
“Stars? They don't have any stars! 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/Neymar-c27639”, Gullit was quoted as saying to Bild.
The 50-year-old went on to insist that the current Oranje side will face a stern test at the hands of Germany on Wednesday, as the Flying Dutchmen have a relatively inexperienced squad.
“We rarely have experienced players anymore. Robben, Van Persie and Van der Vaart, other than them, there are many young players in the team. Wednesday will be very difficult for us”, Gullit added.
The former AC Milan star, who won several pieces of silverware during his six-year stay at San Siro, was all praise for German and Real Madrid star, Mesut Ozil, while also admiring Borussia Dortmund’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marco-Reus-c23733.
“Reus is an excellent player. But Ozil is technically perfect”, Gullit added.
The Dutchman went on to heap praise on Joachim Low’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Germany-c2904, and admitted that they are one of the best teams in the World.
“The German national team has developed wonderfully. Their attacking football is fantastic. They are one of the best teams in the world”, Gullit concluded.
