mikeyp102 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Cannavaro knows his football. Very likeable character. The foreign pundits on itv have all been good. Shame the commentary team and Brits were all awful.. Chiles is fat waste of space 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GasGasGas Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Ron Vlaar doesn't even take penalties for us but is the main penalty taker for Holland? I can see what a genius Louis van Gaal is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wainy316 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Don't blame Ron blame Louis. Even if just to counteract the cream fest over him the other night. Vlaar did us proud tonight. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not about that, it's about who is feeling confident in that moment. Vlaar has a sweet connection with the ball too. And just because he took the first penalty doesn't mean he is their main penalty taker. i 'd argue third is the crucial one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LondonLax Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 It would be an amazing achievement for Holland to get to the final. Distinctly average. I think they will because they'll just stick 6 men on Messi and smack the ball long for Robben to chase and either score or win a penalty. Could you please let me know who you fancy for the final and I will get down the bookies. You are just like Paul the Octopus but in reverse!

PaulC Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 The Aston Villa curse strikes again. Vlaar, Southgate, Mellberg and Vassell. What about Platt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaulC Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Messi was utter utter shite today, Lavezzi was better. To be honest I know he's got a great record at Barcelona but i don't know what all the fuss is about him... Over the years greats Maradona, Pele, Cruyff, Platini, Zidanne all perform at World cups, he has shown glimpses but not enough for me.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rovers13 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 (edited) And Mascherano's performance was with a minor concussion. Unbelievable Edited July 9, 2014 by Rovers13 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted July 10, 2014 Share Posted July 10, 2014 Vlaar was MOM tonight, and should never have taken the first pen. Huntelaar came on and scored a pen against Mexico but never took a pen either shootout for the Dutch which I find strange unless he was meant to take the 5th (should always let the better pen takers go first imo) Mascherano was very good too in a very cagey 120 mins of football As for the final, got to fancy Germany. They dismantled Argentina last time at the last World Cup 4-0 just after dicking us 4-1. They really are a machine but I cant believe how many were creaming over them yesterday and want them to win it. I respect how clinical and impressive they are but I never want them to win anything you're all a bunch of Jurgens for wanting them to win meh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
