And how exactly did I confirmed it?
by saying that they prefer to lose big than to lose without trying to win? common, another example if a team is down 2 goals they will gamble it all by taking of (a) defending player(s) for (an) offensive player(s) what could turn the match arround or it can result with big loss, this has nothing to do with the quality of the defenders, but with balls.
Look at the dutch national team in past and present their defenders play(ed) in top competitions not becoz their home league is crap (they leave for money).
It's just the same if you'dd say that italian strikers are the worst strikers in Europe coz they don't score so often (compared with other 'major' competitions (allthough I not sure wether this is still the case, if not change Italian by Spanish, English,...))
In Italy defence is an art, in the Netherlands it's attacking that's considered an art... We had probably the best clubteam ever in the early 90 coz we combined those 2 styles almost magicly with the golden Dutch trio and the best defence
