I love that line from Gold member.

Dutch players have a developed a reputation for being argumentative, and difficult to work with, which is obviously an overly simplistic view and a stupid generalisation because they can't all be the same, take our very own Nathan Ake, lovely bloke.

Often think that stems from the polder model and how consensus underpins so much of Dutch society. Everyone feels they have to have their say before a decision is made, even in a dressing room, which can be helpful in generating cooperation but can lead to Dutch players abroad being misconstrued as argumentative and the Dutch national side perceived as at each others' throats. It's a peculiar trait and might explain why so many Dutch coaches end up signing Dutch players when they manage abroad.

He didn’t play under Pep but NDJ wasn’t a bad Dutch midfielder

Fell out with Mancini though - which relates to the original comment of managers not wanting to deal with Dutch players

He didn't sell most of the squad though. He did with de Jong

Think De Jong pissed off more than Mancini during contract renewal negotiations when he (and his agent) overplayed their hand.

Dou you want more from the Bayern Fans? Last one, because it is the wrong thread:

Of course there will always be someone who wants to go to Real Madrid or Barca, because they are simply Real Madrid and Barca, but they don't go to City like Gvardiol, Marmoush etc. because it's such a cool club, they go there because they earn many times more than what they get in Frankfurt or Leipzig, and maybe because Pep Guardiola is still the coach there.

You arrogant, sanctimonious prick.
I suppose everyone who signs for your rancid club plays for free do they?
Sums up your club perfectly that your former president is a convicted criminal and your former chairman was caught trying to smuggle watches into the country.
