Comfortable Dutch…

I’ve waited a long time to write my first post. It’s been hard too. I’m hesitant and I’ve been hurt in the past. I realize I sound like a jilted romantic but its true. So much promise and up until now very little realisation of that promise.

But at last I have my confirmation! Everything is going to be okay and it wasn’t three wins against three tough opponents that clinched it for me either…it was a situation on the bench during the Romania game.

If there are still those out there who like me were holding back: hold back no longer!! Everyone really does get along! Everyone really is confident. Everyone really is that relaxed!

Hey thanks, I can’t believe the job that Jan has been doing. I’m lucky to be back now with the Oranje playing so well.

I hope they can keep up the good play and concentration in the finals. They look very relaxed, maybe too relaxed…But I’m confident that the lads are going to show the world once again who’s the greatest team in this championship! Hup Holland! Kampioenuh!

Nice clip. That’s the part of the game I was talking about a few articles back. Thought it was funny and it shows a certain team comraderie.. like schoolboys almost, haha.
