Danny Blind Quotations

It's great that they're coming, but it doesn't help much now. Hopefully it will stimulate the rest of the team.

We were the better side. We created plenty of chances and we got the decisive win.

I'm not seeing a certain drive by some players, the drive to win duels and grab loose balls. The only way we're going to get out of this rut is to work like dogs.

It must have happened midway through the second half when he fell badly.

After the first minute we were already behind. You know that you don't get a lot of opportunities against Arsenal and that the game will be hard.

We already knew what his qualities were but what he showed at this level was excellent. He played a great match for his team.

A two-year extension was not an option for us.

The first half was for PSV, but the second was even more strongly for Ajax. I counted four or five chances. At least one should have fallen.

We were playing without several key players and had juniors on the bench, thus, it was difficult to do better under the circumstances. Each side had its half and it is going to be difficult to get a result in Milan.

I've spoken with Klaas-Jan about this and I've told him this will not be a usual thing. He accepts it because it's good for the team.
