Politics and football don't mix.

We Dutch, we like to have an opinion, a strong opinion. We think we know everything better.

People have expectations of me but I'm not a magician.

I like stubborn players. At least they have an opinion. If they are right or wrong, this doesn't matter for me.

I'm looking forward to seeing some sexy football.

You know, if you play on home soil sometimes funny things can happen and you have that push of the crowd.

You have to be open to everything.
