Goose , you caught me out!

I’m in bloody Australia, I don’t see the Eredivisie action. Sometimes I see one game live 12 hours after the fact.

Most of my Eredivisie comments are borrowed from Dutch media (ANP mainly).

So, I’m sorry if it appears I try to propagandize Dutch football… .

Didn’t know that about the Charity Shield though… Oops.

As for Oranje Down Under: Bert is not the type of coach to suddenly invite second-tier players. His mission is to keep the core group motivated and he’ll use the Aussie trip for bonding as well (as Carlos already said).

There’s a fair chance some players won’t make it due to injuries or slight injuries or issues at their clubs, but I think we’ll see Robin, Robben, Klaas Jan, Nigel and co, provided their fit.

@Leon – Australia v Holland Oct 10. Bert is taking his best team and everyone is looking forward to the trip. It is a Fifa designated Internatonal for Saturday and Wednesday but Holland only playing the one game. Bert reckons clubs will be happy with his decision and the players really loving the idea of going down under.

i think Ajax and PSV have the best change of winning De Eredivie this year with Twente close at them (they will have more energy now they dont play Champ. league… AZ looks a lot poorer than they did last year
Utrecht and NAC could be the surprise teams

still ; its sad to see De Eredivie getting poorer in quality each year

@Goose – I’ve seen Honda before, he plays for the Japanese national team now too. I agree, I’m sure a bigger team will snap him up soon.

Let me share my prediction of this season’s ending

top 5 2009/10

1-Ajax, champions and sell Suarez for 25 million.
2-Twente, lose at least one influential player, eventually trough to semi-finals if Europa League
3-PSV, get lucky and finish third, quick ending in europe
4-AZ, knocked out of CL in first round, Schaars gona at the end of the season.
5-Feyenoord, Vlaar makes it into Oranje, Been can’t make any more out of it.
