    ^ Probably Ronald Koeman, VI keeps on mentioning him. He did an excellent job at Feyenoord last season, turning them into a title challenger after one of the worst seasons they ever had with almost nothing to spend. Admittedly, his coaching career has had some ups and downs: he sucked at...

    Ibrahim Afellay

    Willems was horrible against Germany though. But for a 18-year old, he's promising.

    Wesley Sneijder

    He was excellent indeed. People here were worried about his fitness, but he looked very energetic yesterday. Just a shame we had some acute choking up front.

    Ibrahim Afellay

    No, it's Sneijder. You can see that, because he wears the number 10. So the mystery remains unsolved....

    Defender for next season?

    Indeed, you'd have to try and stretch the defense, and with only fullbacks to provide width that'll be hard to do, as Chelsea showed. With only fullbacks to provide width, the opponent's wingers can be used to defend the wings, and all the other players can be used centrally, making it nearly...

    Diego Ribas

    Finally someone who realizes that VDV is overrated! In my country, most people think he's world class, but he really isn't.

    Barcelona 2012/2013 kits revealed

    With those yellow shorts and socks, the away kit looks even stranger than I thought it would look.

    Jan Vertonghen

    Vertonghen used to be average, but in the last 2 years - and last year especially - he developed into an excellent, complete player. In the CL, he was excellent against Lyon, and he was decisive in the league as well. He's not slow, technically strong, and decent defensively, though sometimes...

    2011-2012 CL Final: Bayern - Chelsea

    On tuesday, I believe, there's the Holland - Bayern match. I'm sure not a single Bayern player is looking forward to that, and Van Marwijk neither. I can see it being a game devoid of action.

    Arjen Robben

    In the Dutch team, he's still very good. But I don't see Bayern play very often, so you might very well be right.

    Arjen Robben

    At least Robben got into good positions; Ribéry didn't even manage to do that. I thought Gómez and Ribéry were bigger chokers yesterday. Robben's really unlucky in finals, but at least he takes his responsability. Probably shouldn't have, but give the guy some credit. He hit the post too; had he...

    Jan Vertonghen

    I do think he's good enough for us. He's strong, excellent on the ball, he's not slow and he's versatile enough to play as a left back or a defensive midfielder, apart from central defender. He was the best player of the Eredivisie, though that's not much of an achievement. He would suit us, I...

    The Dutch Eredivisie

    Twente raped PSV Eindhoven today: 2-6 win in Eindhoven for Twente, and they deserved it too. They were RUTHLESS on the counter, unbelievable. PSV kept on having build-up problems, and they looked weak defensively too, as you can imagine when you concede 6. Twente played with 10 men for the last...

    1. Valdés 2. Messi 3. - For Atlético, I thought Filipe Luís was amazing. Alexis and Dani Alves had a hard time getting past him.

    The Dutch Eredivisie

    The 'supporter' will undoubtedly be banned, indeed. I didn't expect something like this to happen here.... It's like everyone in Ajax is doing everything to make the club look ridiculous, from the directors to the fans....

    The Dutch Eredivisie

    Okay, he probably shouldn't have kept on kicking him, but it's understandable. I mean, imagine standing there as a keeper, and suddenly someone tries to kick you in your back! It's absolutely ridiculous, so I can see why his emotions got the better of him. But sure, he shouldn't have done that...
