It's not a ridiculous selection. I do think, though, that Brazil may lack a 'plan B'. it seems Scolari's way of selecting is similar to Dunga's: chemistry over form, which is not that strange at all. Still, I would've picked some other players, like Diego Alves, Miranda and Filipe Luis, but oh...

True, but I'd rather see him take the Tottenham job, for example. He's not ready for Barça yet imo.

In another thread, I already said this: " I don't think Frank de Boer is ready to be a Barça-manager yet. In big games, Ajax has often lucked out. They looked clueless against high-pressing opposition, and Ajax did not fare well in the European cups, despite them getting decent draws. He also...

Rudi Garcia has made Roma a well-organised team, but I don't think he's an exceptional manager. I don't see why Luis Enrique would be a better choice, though. Being a former Barça player won't magically make him the manager we need. I fear he would be another possession-hogger for a manager. At...

I don't think Frank de Boer is ready to be a Barça-manager yet. In big games, Ajax has often lucked out. They looked clueless against high-pressing opposition, and Ajax did not fare well in the European cups, despite them getting decent draws. He also has a tendency to put players in the wrong...

Klose. This is not even close (no pun intended).

Total domination for Spain, despite them using some subs. Netherlands U21 subbed the whole team, but that's no excuse. We had no chance today. Netherlands-Italy will be exciting, with our best players (Maher, Ola John, Strootman) back again. Worst of all, our coach doesn't think our performance...

And Cavani on the right? Or how would you play with these players?

Out: Cesc 40.0 million Valdés 12.0 million Mascherano 26.0 million Villa 12.0 million Dos Santos 3.5 million Bojan 0.0 million...

PSV hired Advocaat and signed Van Bommel for one reason: to be champions once again. Ajax did, so it's a lost season. All of PSV's focus was on the title, and they came short, so, yeah, I'd still call it a bad season. This was the final chance for players like Van Bommel and probably players...

I understand that there are a lot of Van Bommel haters, but he's a legend to me, because I support PSV. His finest moment as a PSV-player is probably this match: 3 goals against Ajax in the Amsterdam ArenA! I still remember watching that match. We had such a great side back then... It's a...

I'd like to buy a striker, so that Messi can play as a false winger again. Crossing shouldn't be our main plan, but having someone to play a high ball to wouldn't hurt, so that cramming the central parts of the pitch wouldn't be as devastating to us as it is now. No matter how much space our...

I agree. Mertens is a good player, but he tends to play below par in crucial matches. At the moment, I don't think he's ready to play at a top class team yet.

Zoet is talented indeed. He just needs to work on his aerial ability.

He's only second choice for PSV, though, due to his weak football skills (which matters when you play for a strong side in the Dutch League) and he makes defenders feel uneasy, or at least that's what his critics say. He's very athletic and a good shot stopper, but Waterman, PSV's first choice...

Great player for PSV. I'm not sure how good he'll become, but he's definitely ready for a better team.

Anyone but Shakhtar or Porto is fine with me. I'd prefer Galatasaray.
