RVP, Huntelaar, Robben. Just make it happen Bert.

Yes that would be logical


---------Huntelaar-----------
--Robben--------Van Persie-
----Sneijder--Van de Vaart-
--------Van Bommel---------
De Jong----------------v.d. Wiel
-----Mathijsen----Heitinga-----
---------Stekelenburg----------


god, our defence sucks. I put De Jong there because I think he'll do pretty good as a leftback.
But you could put Schaars there.

I'm watching every Dutch game at the pub, but i'll probaly be on GAF when watching the other games.

Drowning your sorrows?

 

[Dutch Gronk]

I absolutely HATE Affelay.
Can't stand him and think he's one of the more overrated players in the world.
Even while he played for PSV he couldn't make a difference in the Eredivisie.

You won't hate him when he lifts that trophy for us!

 

[Arjen]

Drowning your sorrows?

Good excuse to hug hot girls when we score.

 

[hertog]

Well I don't really care for our team this year.

I miss the players I really liked, and felt less douchy. Not these overpaid superstars like Affelay, Sneijder, Van Persie or De Jong.

I miss the days of Rijkaard, Bergkamp, van de Sar, Overmars, Frank and Ronald de Boer.
They at least had their own character and didn't look like prima donna's

 

[bjaelke]

That's a valid excuse. I'm only asking because that's what I did at the last WC when we lost to Netherlands.

He has grown tremendously over the last couple of years. He was terrible in the Dutch competition but has been incredibly important for us Dutch team. I'd rather have him then Kuyt or Narsingh.

Hmm, watching the game in an overcrowded pub with loads of people who haven’t even seen a stadium from the inside ever in their life vs. watching the game at home on my new plasma tv, sitting on a comfy couch with some good friends, drinks, and snacks.

Fuck the pub!

Agreed. A pub can be fun if you just wanted to get wasted while watching it, but usually prefer being at home or at the stadium.

It has it downsides sure, i just try to get drunk enough not to be bothered by dumb things people say who don't know shit about football.

That's the way I watch the game. Although after 20 minutes my house sounds like a pub anyway... all my friends and family swearing and shouting, spilling beer etc

 

[bud]

i wish arsenal would buy afellay. he's everything gervinho and walcott are not. he links up with rvp pretty well, too, as has been evident in the two friendlies they've played together (assuming he stays which he probably won't/shouldn't). he's going to waste at barcelona.

were arsenal even back when he got sold to barca? he was dirt-cheap, too.

Olic just cant catch a break. Really sad to hear this, great character guy who deserves much better luck.

Thanks for making it possible! Should be a great incentive to stay in the league.

Feeling another Greek upset this year!

the match I'm looking forward the most is portugal/germany.

portugal is so getting destroyed

love the euros, it's like a wc without filler teams. it only needs brazil and argentina to render world cup irrelevant.

we're going to get a lot more filler in the next editions I believe

"The tournament will be expanded from 16 to 24 teams in 2016 after the plan was unanimously agreed by senior officials of all 53 UEFA member nations."

unanimously? fucking fifa/uefa/everyone

I love my tag, so if I win (which I won't... don't worry) you can give the prize to the runner up

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bht9xqY00kM

sure.
its in poznan. in my opinion beside my birthtown, one of the most beautiful polish cities. I think it is the economic faculty of the university and they have their last exam. They made a little joke by dressing up in cheer-gear for it and their professor is suprised to see it. he tells them jokingly "wow.. if you guys put so much preparation into your study.." and plays along with their game. They put in the emberasing song and sing along, which by now is, i take it, a national joke.
I love the fact how many people yell "uwaga uwaga" (watch out!) its a polish meme.
so yeah, the most important fact you should derive from this video is how many beautiful students poland has. damn.. i wish to be there over the EM.. but germany is nice too

 

[Meier]

Does anyone know if the way the fantasy team works is that you're locked in to the players throughout the whole tournament? Or can you make transfers as it progresses?

thanks and done... after yesterday´s match even it was just a warm up, france is a strong contender for the cup IMO

hahahaha. got my netherlands jersey today.. i ordered it a bit ago and didn't bother looking into squad numbers too much.. rvp #9 is infact #16.. Huntelaar is #9. feels bad bro.

You couldn't have known bro. RvP used to be #9 but he chose #16 this year because of the birthday of his kid.

Portugal has absolutely no chance, this is one of our weakest national sides in the last few major tournaments. Most portuguese don´t have many expectations from their national side, it´s even liberating in a way, to go into a tournament not thinking that your the hot fuzz

Huntelaar is the better striker anyway.

Its not like you can even see the numbers on the shirt. Who thought that orange on orange would be a good idea?

Alan fucking Hansen ?

Do me a favour, bjaelke.

Don't knock him .....more injuries for England and he's in with a chance.

The combination Benzema and Ribery is amazing ! I'm eager to watch the game against England.

[Wilbur]

Hansen and his fucking partner in crime have been cretins since time immemorial. Can't wait for the BBC to ritually slaughter everyone but Lineker. It says something about your tactical insight when ITV are only marginally worse.

I don't understand how the Euros will work with 24 teams; 4 groups of 6, then 4 groups of 4? 8 groups of 3?
