The Top Ten Dutch Footballers In the Premiership – Part 1
It is believed by most Footballers, fans and pundits alike that one of the best plays of football is done in the English Premier League, so it comes as no surprise that the most talented players in the world move to England to play Football.
That also means that England has the best ranked football clubs in the world and this includes the likes of Chelsea, Manchester United and the Gunners.
Another element that is the outcome of such moves is the attraction of so many different groups of people in the Premier League. So with so many Dutch players in the league it comes as no shock that the Premier League attracts the attention of a lot of Dutch
fans.
One thing that these mighty people have proved over and over again is that they never categorize in the shallow end of the pool and they keep shinning brighter than ever, year in and year out.
So here is the list of the best ranked Dutch players to be gracing the English Premier League with their presence.
Rafael van der Vaart
Rafael van der Vaart has been scheduled to make his first appearance in the Premier League as soon as he was signed to Tottenham Hotspurs, in the last two hours of the transfer window.
It was rumoured that there was an eighteen million pound deal in the works for the player with Bayern Munich and it went downhill a day before the transfer windows were about to close.
Harry Redknapp heard the news and contacted Real Madrid instantly and struck an eight million deal for the player; the final transaction took place in the last two hours before the transfer window closed.
It has been reported that the player completed his move from Real Madrid to Tottenham Hotspurs.
Rafael van der Vaart had very good spells at Hamburg and Ajax and the time featured a lot of goal scoring, but then the player did fall below the radar for a while during his time with the Spanish giants.
The collective moves of numerous talents to Real Madrid did slow Van der Vaart down, as the new transfers saw the likes of Bernabéu, Sami Khedira and Ángel di Maria.
These moves cut Van Der Vaart’s play time down to a very minimum at the club and the twenty seven year old was left struggling for a better role in the first team and desperately trying to get more play time.
Still, Rafael van der Vaart has a lot of prime years left ahead of him and his abilities on the pitch have only improved with time. With such a huge fan base, he is thought of building up a lot of support in the Premiership.
The Dutch player is highly anticipated at White Hart Lane, and with having three hundred and twenty seven appearances in professional football, and a hundred and twenty goals scored, there are high hopes for him.
However, the player does not have any experience in the English style of play, he is hoping to get a first team position, and Tottenham Hotspurs seem to have an early impact on the UEFA Champions league this year.
Robin van Persie
Next on the list is another Feyenoord player who made a move to England. Robin van Persie came in 2004 after playing three seasons with a Rotterdam based club.
At the age of twenty seven, Van Persie is known as a player who gets injured quickly, his fans and the club have seen him in his off and on times with being injured a lot.
