Jaap Stam, a former Dutch footballer, has questioned the decision to use Micky van de Ven as a left back by the Dutch national team. In an interview with Flashscore, Stam stated that he does not understand why Van de Ven is used in this position. Stam believes that Van de Ven's speed would make him a better fit as a central defender, which is the position he is used in at Tottenham Hotspur.
Stam also praised Tottenham Hotspur as a good place for Van de Ven and Jan Paul van Hecke, stating that they are starting to understand the ideas of their coach, De Zerbi. This suggests that the team is adapting well to their new coach's tactics.
