I'm now questioning why I have given so much credit to Italy in my predictions table thread.
Seriously, these guys lack enormous offensive variation while the defense looks like nothing without Cannavaro or Nesta 's guidance.
Oh man, let my predictions sink. I've not seen Holland this good for quite some time and I'd love to see them trampling over every other opponent like this until the very end.
w00t WooT !

I believe you got 10 points for the right result, wrong scoreline. Like me.

@InsaneApache: No, I had a 2-1 France win and 2-1 Italy win, I think.
Yikes, superb from the Dutch. Their slightly obscure defence was rock-solid (Was that the same Boulharouz who played for Chelsea?) and their attcking midfield three were sublime. The injury-enforced changes to the starting line-up seem to have paid dividends.

You're welcome any day, mate.
Now I leave the thread to you, the mad frog, the raving derwish, and all the other fanatics.
No points at all from today's games, but I don't mind at all; Netherlands have decided to be Jekyll rather than Hyde this year so all is well with the world. And because of the draw earlier the "group of death" is wide open.
Netherlands surely in with a good chance if they can keep up that standard (although that said, when have they ever managed to do that?), easily the best team we've seen so far in what to be fair has been a pretty disappointing tournament.

The same Boulharouz who sat in the dugout for two years at Real.

What is Engelaar doing at Twente? Excellent work from him, even if the final passing
was a bit off. And don't think Robben should walk straight back into that side.
