They are all current Dutch internationals ! Van Basten is hated over here as

a manager because he tries as much as possible to avoid players based abroad or who clash with his own ego (a la Gullit).

A few players have refused to play for the national team while he is there, including Mark van Bommel and for a year Ruud van Nistelrooij (although he was eventually coaxed back a couple of months ago).
