As for Barcelona, Eric Abidal is left back, while Alves is right back. Who will replace them? At least Van Basten is an honest person.

If he wants to continue he'd better get some very experienced assistents. BTW Big rumour, if its true i'm really happy. Barca looking around in eredivisie for defenders, it would seem they're on the look-out for a left-back. They are rumoured to have looked at CB/possible LB:Niklas Moisander, LB/LM:Sebastien Pocognoli, and get this Midfielder/Leftwingback:URBY EMANUELSON and LB/CB:EDSON BRAAFHEID. :) Don't think Moisander will leave after just one season, Pocognoli just negotiating about a renewed contract. Im curious, if this is a correct rumour, would Emanuelson set his pride aside and convert to left-back just to be able to play for Barcelona. I know I would, but would he do so. BTW sensational ending to a rather dissapointing performance by Barcelona. Though i feel Chelsea deserved it more over these 2 legs. Barcelona just feels more right. Im just afraid of how they'll stand up against Man united, I mean Alves and Abidal suspended for the final. That's not good.

Van Basten should never have been coach of Holland in the first place. we wasted two tournaments with him, with another coach things would have been different. I don´t know if we could have been champions but at least we could have reached a semifinal either in WC 06 or in Euro 08. But no, the first two matches in the knockout stage were lost and this time not even in penalties. Van Basten will have to reconsider his career as a coach. He can be succesful with big stars only if he starts giving confidence to them...he is not the star anymore, he is just a coach who has not won anything. Tiju and Miguel…you are totally right.

Selecting wrong players at the crucal games is his main problem and with egostis approch and see how he destroyed stekelen burg???.he doesnt have any trust in his players. he should have done this before 2006 WC in the national team itself.
