Algerian star Anis Hadj Moussa is facing fierce criticism from the Dutch media over his individualistic style in recent matches for his club Feyenoord Rotterdam, both in the Europa League and the Eredivisie.

Football pundits in the Netherlands have slammed the Desert Warriors' star for his excessive solo play and reluctance to pass the ball to teammates, even when they are in better positions.

Hadj Moussa put in a lackluster performance during the high-profile clash against PSV Eindhoven in Matchday 10 of the Eredivisie, a match that saw his team lose 2-3.

The Algerian national team star has featured in 13 matches for Feyenoord across all competitions this season, contributing to 7 goals through both assists and goals scored.

He has particularly shone in the Eredivisie, netting 4 goals, along with two more in the UEFA Champions League qualifiers and the Europa League.

Hadj Moussa has only provided a single assist so far, which came in the clash against Almelo in the Eredivisie.

Despite earning playing time in Algeria's last three matches, he failed to score or assist in any of them.
