I don't think any of them will play anyway? I think it's gonna be like this:
van der Sar
Kromkamp - Boulahrouz - Ooijer - Gio
van Bommel - van Der Vaart - Cocu
Kuyt - Nistelrooy - Robben

heh... Mathijsen has proven to be better than Ooijer. It wouldn't make sense if Ooijer would play instead of Mathijsen.

True I like Mathijsen better too
but it won't make much of a difference, they won't even pass the first round anyway

Whats with no1 selectin Van Der Vaart or Heitinga.....Those 2 are quality. So is Sneijder.

i think defensively they are weak, that is where they will struggle.

a shame seedorf ain't in it, the man played all the matches in the italian league, italian cup and all the champions league duels in the basis, plus he almost never is injured and controls the midfield, i would swap him for maduro...
-
seedorf fell the fuck off, so many others players have more to offer.
-
I think they gonna be a big suprise. Mark my words.
