Bert van Marwijk: "The Nou Camp will discover Afellay in a second "

Coach Oranje is one of the most pampered people to Affelay and believes the club has hit full blaugrana clocking your ward

Bert van Marwijk is known in Holland for the coach who won the UEFA in 2002 in Feyenoord. Its success could change with a much higher in South Africa, but Spain held him back. In the Red was about players like Xavi, Iniesta, Pedro and Busquets, who will now become one of his fellow pupils, Ibrahim Affelay. Learn all you can give of the PSV player, who wishes him a bright career blaugrana dress and with the players who snatched the glory.

What can you expect from Ibrahim Afellay in the Barca game? 

What really I is for the club is very positive that Afellay played there. Ibi is a great player, a player with great natural talent. I am convinced it will be a very important player for Barca.


In selecting the band plays as a winger, while PSV Eindhoven, Fred Rutten is used in the midfield. Where to play in Barca? 

Can play in many positions, but my favorite position for him to play at left back and released. So, in the position he played before Messi placed false striker, but on the other side. But Guardiola has it easy because you can play all positions. 

You think you can get one day tene level Xavi and Iniesta? I said that I think has great talent. And along with such good players, sure he will still be played. So yes, I think Ibi can reach a high level. 

What kind of player Afellay, which is up a stadium? The audience at the Nou Camp he will serve as motivation. There, the fans are a great team that enjoys each game. In that sense, when the fans see Ibi, it will not take no time in discovering the talent of this player. The Camp Nou will really enjoy the football Ibi.

Why should this great relationship between the Dutch players and Barca?

Maybe we should start talking about Johan Cruyff, and then appoint Michels, and Neeskens, who is my friend, is my age and play together in all kinds of equipment lower grades. They play the way we like to play. I like his style of play, as against Villarreal. In training on Monday spoke with Afellay. 

What advice would you give? What I say to the players on the field, do not tell the press.
