		<description>@ Tiju..I dont know wtf is wrong wid u bro...do u actually watch soccer or r u one of those FIFA addicts , i actually read ur posts n IMO u seem to hve got all da wrong facts my friend not to forget the spelling mistakes!!!

I saw da match against iceland , we got complacent after da two goals nevertheless great performances from vaart n de jong..my line up would be :-
...........................Stek.......................

...V.D.Weil........Heitinga........Mathijsen......Gio..
.
..........................De Jong......................
.
.......Kuyt................VDV/Sneijder.......Robben....
.
..................RVP.................Huntelaar.........

i would drop da bayern captain cos dirk kuyt is more of a defensive player and comes in handy during counter attacks n even the gr8 cryuff said during da euro&#039;s when we beat france dat two defensive mid-fielders can look ugly 
against opponents who play differently n hiddink proved him right!!</description>

		<description>&quot;i cannt neglect the goal stati of liverpool.even though kuyt didnt scored much.&quot;

Do you mean that he didn&#039;t score many for Liverpool? He was 3rd behind Gerard (16) and Torres (14) with 12 and was only 2nd to Gerrard (9) in assists with 8. I don&#039;t thinks that&#039;s all that bad. He&#039;s level on goals in the EPL with Lampard, Bent and Rooney.... He&#039;s equal 6th Top Scorer in the EPL.
He has definitely stepped up with Liverpool this season and has become one of the key players, he&#039;s no longer just a hard-working likeable guy... he&#039;s become much more than that.</description>

		<description>I was really impressed with VdW. In his two games he managed to produce more offensively then Heitinga does in 10 games (although Heitinga does have the occasional header goal!). Heitinga is not consistent enough in his performances; vdw we will have to see but im afraid bert will put heitinga in instead. I want to see Braafheid on the left, and Marcellis in the center with Mathijsen. I also want an Elia debut. Most importantly though, I think we have the ingredients to make a very good defense, much better than anyone makes it out to be. But that does mean putting the right players in the right positions, and looking ahead a year. 

I just hope Bert gets rid of Ooijer at the very least...I mean come on, the guy is going to be 35 next year, Makaaying it up at PSV.</description>

		<description>oranje should go for the title. it&#039;s evident. anf the team is in the 4 best of the world. i&#039;d say that spain looks the best,but there is not a big difference between them and oranje. we are at the level of argentina and brasil. it would be great to qualify tomorrow because we would have lots of time to prepare for the world cup and bert should try the possibilities,test players etc.
Jan&#039;s starting eleven and the bench seems all right. mine is not the same but not too different:
stekel (vds)
van der wiel,heitinga,matthijsen,braafheid
de jong,van bommel
kuijt,van persie,robben
huntelaar
if we want more attack-minded team we can use sneijder instead of one of the holding midfielders,or start with sneijder and use robben in the last 30 minutes.
bench: marcelis,boulah,gio,schaars,sneijder,vdv,de zeuuw,elia,rvn</description>

		<description>Sorry Tiju, I&#039;ve got to say your line ups are a little crazy!  Playing Donk as a left back, when he isn&#039;t even good enough in his preferred position (center back)??  Castelen again??  A completely untested kid from the lower half of the Eresdivisie instead of Ruud??  How does that work anyways - you seem to have an undying love for the ever-injured Castelen who made only the briefest of non-spectacular appearances for Oranje, but you&#039;re willing to write off one of our best strikers, Ruud, whose had a long and spectacular career with Orange??
Lol, you certainly have a lot of imagination, but I don&#039;t think it would work in real life :-)</description>
