Raphael Van der Vaart criticized a few days ago Memphis Depay saying that “he is too muscular.” The Colchonero striker replied to the former Dutch international that it is “normal” for this to happen if a player has not played for two or three months and is in the gym. Now, Van der Vaart has broached the subject, though this time praising his compatriot.
“You can say what you want. Memphis is our best player. If he is in top form, then we have a chance at the European Championship. If he is not, we have no chance. I attribute so many qualities to him.. .” Van der Vaart justified his criticism by arguing that “I just said that I thought he was too strong. De Ligt was like that for a while. In other countries it seems like you have to go to the weight room all the time and if you can’t train, you just miss it .” “Stay in the gym with those weights. Sometimes it can be smart to do it a little bit,” he says.
