Frank Rijkaard. Clarence Seedorf. Marco van Basten. Johan Neeskens. It’s safe to say the Netherlands<\/span> produce more world class footballers than there are cyclists in Amsterdam.<\/strong><\/p>\n

This is a nation steeped in innovation and a trailblazing outlook for the beautiful game. When we think of great footballing sides, we think of Ferenc Puskas’ Hungary, Brian Clough’s Nottingham Forest, Pele’s Brazil, and of course, Rinus Michels’ Oranje<\/span>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Throughout the ages, the Netherlands<\/span> have wowed and dazzled us in equal measure, both at club level — for those lucky enough to have a Dutchman on the books — and on the international stage — their absence from the 2018 World Cup was certainly felt.<\/p>\n
