Thanks for all that. The Feijenoord spelling by the way has officially been changed to Feyenoord for reasons you pointed out with your note :-) No one abroad would get it right, so Feyenoord chanced it... haha...

I'm from England and believe in the Dutch technique and way of playing football. Amazing that a small country produces so many top coaches and players. Must be a reason why! Van Basten was the best fotballer I ever saw. Just a shame that the Dutch players always look across the borders to play for so-called bigger clubs....Otherwise Ajax, Feijenoord (note correct spelling) and PSV Eindhoven could once again be top clubs in Europe. But anyway, at least the national team can prove the quality that exists. Oranje… show Europe what you can do.. I’m from England and believe in the Dutch technique and way of playing football.

But this time he missed something. Akenfeev is among our best players together with Arshavin and Zhirkov. indecisive finishing – absolutely agree

mediocre goalie – Jan, the writer knows a lot about our team. But this time he missed something. Akenfeev is among our best players together with Arshavin and Zhirkov.

Mediocre? Common, the guy is one of the strongest point in the team and one of the best in tournament. Don't count the Spain game, 4-1 was because of your next minus - "sloppy defending". :) I won't be surprised if he will play for big club after this Euro. I'm confident we gonna through, but this guy can make us problems. …don’t agree about russian goalie. Mediocre?

Dick Advocaat said he will support Russia in his interview for Russian TV. I wonder if he can say the same speaking to Dutch reporter. Funny thing.
