Legend Dennis Bergkamp Magic 10

A shame he wasn't the #1 10 in the international squad

[KURUPTION-81]

Some great goals there but i think Van Bastens v russia should be number 1

[Elano]

holland has been a joke in the last 10 years

[smegma]

Some great goals there but i think Van Bastens v russia should be number 1

I don't even wanna choose. Both are amazing goals.


This goal should have been in there too IMO:

Love the commentary on number one.

['EclipZe]

bergkamp is the real deal. since wc 98 the dutch squad kinda sucks tho

[Sweet & Tender Hooligan]

^^^^^

Nah the squad hasnt sucked, Holland has always had good players. Cant explain why they aint won anything in years though. Must admit im pretty nervous about them being in our group for the world cup qualifiers, as im sure K.Dub is too...

Oh and is it just me or does anyone see similarities between Berbatov and Van Basten?
