[Andrew webb]

My choice was for Gers job before S Gerrard got it
Good luck

 

[AbronhillBear]

Good luck Frank!

While on the subject of Ex dutch players. How is Gio getting on these days? Is he in China or something? No doubt on mega money

 

[ClockworkOrange]

Wasn't really fancied after his miserable run with Palace, but good to see him back with a top job. Would have loved him here.

How can anyone implement any change, never mind a philosophy, after 3 games - agree with you it was fuckin mental.

 

[Hiram.Abiff]

Good luck FDB. Always had a soft spot for Holland.

 

[DJ_RFC_1872]

I was present for Frank’s Palace managerial tenure and I can tell you, it was not pretty.

He shouldn’t have a) been offered the job, or b) taken the job, knowing what squad he had at his disposal.

It was never going to work. It was Le Guen-esque. He wanted to play three at the back - one of whom Milivojevic - and pass it out with Wayne Hennessey in goal.

The alarm bells really started ringing for me a week before the season opener in a home friendly defeat to Schalke. The players had no idea where they were playing or what they were supposed to do.

Palace lost 3-0 at home to the newly-promoted Huddersfield a week later and you knew it was going to be ugly.

 

[KL2]

That is a much better fit for him.

He was extremely successful with Ajax and will have a lot of players in the squad accustomed to his style of football.

 

[JPS Blue]

Good luck FDB

His team was on telly last week.The opposition manager was Fabio Cannavaro

 

[dereksmallsloyal]

International tractor boys

 

[Frank Burnside]

Good luck to him, he always tries to get his teams to play attractive football. Unlike a lot of international managers.

 

[Pablo Escobar]

Good luck to FDB always liked the dutch maself

 

[SouthLDNBear]

Think he will find his feet again with The Netherlands and prove he is a top class coach

 

[roffey]

That is a much better fit for him.

Yep he’ll probably do well with them.

 

[Boab]

Good luck to him

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Will suit his style of management.

Players with ability to fit into his systems.

 

[bud_light]

Dutch TV reporting that it isn't confirmed yet

 

[AMC]

All the best to him.

 

[The Royal Standard]

Hope he’s successful!

 

[Rangerscoverboy]

Assume he's quit the Atalanta gig?

 

[MSF]

Assume he's quit the Atalanta gig?

“Mutual agreement.”

He has stumbled from disaster to disaster since leaving Ajax in 2016z Probably best staying in Holland.

I know one of the coaches at Atlanta Utd and it's fair to say he lasted longer than a lot of people expected there too

 

[WW55 on the PRW]

Good luck Frank

 

[Jan Wyck]

I wish him well.

If the "class is permanent" mantra has any validity then FDB will do his country proud.

 

[Gordilh]

Good luck Frank hope you have every suscess.

 

[TQ3]

Best of luck to our Frank.

 

[Thechemist]

Good luck to FDB. Dutch side will probably suit his tactics better than a lot of club sides.

 

[_BlueNose_]

[Teddy Casablanca]

Dutch football probably suits FDB best. I wish him every success.

You actually made me think twice about it.
Best dutch team of all time imo

 

[Business_Bear]

They've not won anything in my lifetime but always been one of my favourite international sides to watch. Seem to be producing again after a few woeful years by their standards.
