Adriana is NOT an oft used Dutch name. Really, it isn't. It is in Italy and other Mediterranean countries but it's a pretty unique name. So, whatever the method, the odds of you being right are frightingly low. Ok, I have two dogs. What breed? (I am scared...help...) No man! Adriana is NOT an oft used Dutch name. Really, it isn’t.

It is not as impressive psychic job as you may believe. I didn't even have to cheat and ask Felipe! This link comes up first, and the first name on the girls list is Adriana... http://blog.traceyourdutchroots.com/2006/10/traditional-dutch-first-names-for.html So you go for the probability, stack the odds in your favour, just like in financial markets :-) How about using Google and look for traditional Dutch girls names….?

But on the Finnish defenders :-). I agree the finish was great and his skills is tremendous, but these two sleepwalkers at the back really did pisspoor. As for my wife: YOU ARE A HERO! Her name is Adriana :-). ITS TRUE! This is scary stuff man... Either Felipe told you this (he knows it all) or you are psychic. Which means you should have seen this financial crash coming and you made a billion shorting and you should share your wealth with all of us. I wasn’t harsh on Ars. But on the Finnish defenders :-) .

The clip isn't the best as it does not show what actually happened before. If you see the entire situation, he was literally just strolling along with ball and then all of a sudden picks up speed and steps up between the defenders and catches them completely out, and there is not much wrong with the clinical finish either. It is actually pretty classy in my book. Obviously Finnish central defenders aren't Spanish, but he didn't seem to have too much trouble taking the piss out of Oranje defense either. I think he will be playing for a Big 4 or Real/Barca/Inter/AC Milan come January. By the way, trying to throw my hat into the "guess what Jan's wife's name is" competition. My guess is Adriana... I think you are still having a bit of a Russian hangover. Lets move on, and kill those bastards next time we get a chance. Jan, I think you are being a bit harsh on Arseshaving.

At all! He doesn't really burst with speed. Come on lads! If you want to see a player accelerate while already full steam ahead, look at C Ronaldo, Johan Cruyff, Marc Overmars... My analysis: Arshavin is walking with the ball. Two Finnish defenders are two or three meters away!!! He lets them bite (together!!) and then he slips through. They're all at one line at the back there is no coverage from another player. Just outright amateurish defending my friends. All our lads would have scored like that!! This was not special. I am so sorry. I’m sorry, I just saw Arshavin’s goal and it was NOT special. At all!
