An ex-Premier League footballer has told Arne Slot to avoid signing Eredivisie players.
Many in the English top flight believe that players from the Dutch league struggle to adapt to the Premier League.
That has been the case with many of the signings made by Erik ten Hag at Manchester United.
Former Ajax, Chelsea and Netherlands defender Mario Melchiot told ESPN: The gap is huge between Holland and England. When you come to England I always say: 'Be careful with who you bring with you'.
That's been one of the criteria with the Dutch managers, that they sometimes bring a player from Holland and he's been great. They talk him up and say: 'That player is amazing'.
He comes to England and most of the guys that they really rave about sometimes in our country are the guys that struggle when they go abroad. We saw a number of the guys.
I think the first season my advice would be work with what you have and then see what you can do."
