“Virgil has done exceptionally in the Premier League, but now he has to maintain that level.“Hes got the potential to win the Ballon dOr, but its very hard to win it as a defender.With Manchester United flop Memphis Depay enjoying a revival in France and Georginio Wijnaldum continually impressing in midfield, this is a Dutch side to be taken seriously.But Hasselbaink is wary of placing too much pressure upon the shoulders of this young Oranje side.Former Chelsea striker Hasselbaink knows an imperious defender when he sees onegetty3

The future looks really, really bright for Netherlands,” he added. “Lots of young players are coming through, who are playing week in week out, at the likes of Ajax.“Theyre playing at the highest level too, in Champions League semi-finals, and Dutch football is doing so well. They drew to Germany and are now in the semi-final of the Nations League.The only thing theyre missing is an out-and-out striker to become even better, but Memphis Depay has filled that gap superbly.“To progress, we firstly need to qualify for European Championships. We didnt qualify for the last Euros or World Cup.“Once thats done, we need to try and get as far as possible and then build on it. The team is young so the tournament after that, you go and try to get further.
