I hope Va Gall doesn't play Man U like he is Holland, otherwise I will have to support Norwich. :no

Holland parking the bus and hoping for a goal on the counter attack or a long ball, after that the only plan I can see is penalties.

That is a yellow card. :angry

The incompetence of the refs in this world cup and the lack of protection for Messi gets my wind up.

Same Holland that put 5 past the number 1 team in the world and before last night had scored the most goals in the tournament?

You were complaining about their style of play but it gets them loads of goals in the end.

This is the first time they have played Argentina Mark, but you are correct in your analysis for this particular match. They are indeed parking the bus and hoping for a goal on the counter. Nothing wrong with the tactics, just not good for the fans whom by the way pay their wages.

Had a feeling last night's game had used up all the goals.

Well Van Nistleroy just said at half time Holland have got it wrong and is interested in seeing Van Balls plan B. :dunno

So there. :)

Besides I can complain about what ever I like, just about everyone else does on here.

Still can't pick a winner. Got a feeling the Dutch might nick one.

They are complaining about Macherino going on to soon after possible concussion. Saying FIFA are living in the 50's. :lol:
