Unfortunately Portugal have made a lot more progress with their team than we did, so I doubt we will win this one. I fear this is gonna be like the EC 2004 semi final all over again. Hopefully people will then realize Van Basten is and bring a quality coach in.
2-1 |
:nervous: :eek: :( :confused: :eyespop: |

It's more likely that we will be the ones going home dude.. or haven't you watched any of our matches so far? |
the last match didnt count
the 1st match while the team was warming up Robben took over and beat a serbia squad that still wasnt in shambles, and they beat a good Ivory Coast team.
then again keep speaking negative, when I do that my teams usually win :confused: |

You forget to mention that Ivory Coast totally dominated the entire 2nd half vs. us and got denied two 100% penalties :haha: Yes, we won vs. Serbia.. but then again, Serbia are total e as their game vs. Argentina proved.
I'm not being negative, I'm being realistic. Our current squad is playing like and we don't deserve to be in the quarter finals if we keep this up. |

Like I said in other threads, I don't see many differences between us and Holland, can easily go either way. One thing that worries me is the idea over here that Holland wil fit us because they're supposedly a romantic all-out-attack team.. when against Ivory Coast they looked like freakin' Italy only caring about defending the result.
I think this change of mentality is actually positive for Holland, I credit Van Basten for it, and it might very well be the reason for us to be knocked out. |

| 50-50. It could go either way. I wouldn't be surprised if Holland would go home, as much as I'd love to see them win.. |

Typical Dutch negative talking by Jantjeuh.
Last few tournaments we did play good but never managed to win anything and everytime in the last seconds or by penaltys we got kicked out.
This time Van Basten is concentrating more on the defence and finally the squad is a solid team. All players are running their ass of for the team. Now everybody in the Netherlands is nagging that we aren't playing good enough. Well the matches aren't pretty but we are winning, that's the most important thing.
The only fault van Basten made is keeping our topscorer KJ Huntelaar home.
Tomorrow it will be a 2-1 victory by Holland |
