both Germany and Holland's anthems sound like Methodist hymns....

1:0 gomez

LOL!
2-0 Gomez

Take off the leftback for Holland, he's too young, raw and inexperinced, the Germans are taking advantage of it. For his own sake take hin off please, in 2 years at the WC he'll be ready, just not now.

LÖW

This match would be 1-0 or 2-0 in Oranje's favour had RVP converted simple chances. Forget the LB,its crappy selection from BVM. Once again garbage coach spoiled a whole generation

im pretty sure mourinho would swap ronaldo for schweinsteiger

what i mean is he would do everything to get him if he could

Suck it

He already tried it at Inter

The left back for Holland has been very good this half, good he wasent taken off.

On another what the hell was Robben doing?

*bleep*!
on the verge of being sent home :[
i CANNOT believe it, Sneijder needs justice

Sorry Holland you played well

Netherlands to go out with 3 defeats?

that netherlands left back

Job well done

rvp is goat for NT.... not

Well played Germany. Holland has been so disappointing...

I guess now RVP is a shit player?

If your ST gets 12 chances in 2 matches out of which 10 odd are inside the box & 6-7 are absolutely clear cut, & finally Scores 1 COnsolation Goal. You cant win.

Had RVP tapped in the Mark Van Bommel pass & scored 1 of the 2 passes from Sneijder or Robben we would be 2-0 up & would have the match in the Bag.

A meaningless goal cant compensate it.

Gomez had 3 chances & scored 3.

We were actually the better team in both games but lost. Ultimately goal are what matter and nothing else does

You were not the better team in this one. Just stop it.

Take a nap.

Majority Possession. They sat back & countered. And countereted well. No disrespect to Germany but we were the team trying to play football. This is not even a comparison.

Clueless Arsenal fans. We created chances out of proper play & had majority possession. They just countereted & barely played. But Good Job Germany anyway

GO HOME !!!

Bhends and I were discussing the sheer stupidity in some of the decisions within the team.

BvM placed De Jong and MvB as the defensive pivot of the team. Sounds good on paper. Yet the problem with this is that Ozil was completely taking the clueless De Jong out of position while MvB had a dual role of covering Khedira AND Scweinsteiger.

Bhends made a good point that MvB spent too much time on Khedira while De Jong was simply CLUELESS and didn't track or press and was getting roasted all night by Ozil..

MvB could be sympathized with given he had NO support from De Jong along with the fact that it was like playing as the sole defensive structure within the midfield.

Sneijder understandably did not defend but should have realized that the 3 man German triangle was absolutely killing a lost for pace MvB and the clueless De Jong.

Robben despite providing imbalance to the squad made some good decisions yet should have done better.

BvM should have played a 3 man with Strootman/MvB-De Jong with Sneijder given a free role.

Half time he rightly substituted the invisible Afellay yet brought on VdV instead which was a PISS POOR DECISION. Not only that, Huntelaar came on but MvB CAME OFF! De Jong should have come off while MvB should have combined with Strootman instead of VdV coming on (who was poor as predicted)

BvM did make a correct decision in having Hunter as the targetman with RvP supporting him as the increasingly pressing Dutch line then made progress from there as RvP capping a goal from a Huntelaar assist.

BvM finally replaced Robben for Kuyt yet this decision should have been done a long time ago.

Heitinga was a testament to the poor dutch defence along with their 18 LB who was awful.

In the end, the line-up, subs, high line against German counter-attack as well as COMPLETE lack of adaptability from BvM has cost them the tournament imo

The worst bit is if we win via a 2 Goals Margin & if Denmark loose on the final match against germany,we will be through to the Knock-Outs.

That should never happen. There needs to be a Group Stage Elimination so that BVM quits & guys like Clasie,Anita & Van Rhijn are selected & not old age home guys
