Fucking gutted the Dutch went through. I've been there and met a lot of Dutch people over here and they are generally some of the nicest, most interesting people you could wish to encounter. But van Judas and Robben alone are enough to make any sane man hate the football team. Would have loved to have seen them and United's new Special One get turfed out, really do not fucking like that team at all.

And even in a nation of 17 million people surely Dirk Kuyt and Ron Vlaar are not in the top 11???

The Dutch will be licking their lips, Costa Rica are burnt after that. Cracking penalties to be fair.

Have to admit he did virtually nothing against that poor Italian team, the Uruguayans were shabby as well and the least said about that awful England team the better. :oops:

I will wish him all the luck against the verminous cheat that is Robben and van Judas.

When Suarez gets 4 months for biting while cheating *word censored* like this guy get off scot free with all their diving antics it really proves there's so much wrong with football. Cheating and conning the ref is no worse than biting an opponent in my book.

Don't think I've ever watched Robben play a game where he hasn't dived, yet very rarely have I seen him get booked for it. Basically given carte blanche to roll around as he pleases.

If Colombia had Falcao they'd be clear favourites over Brazil in my eyes - I still fancy them as it stands, especially since Neymar might not be 100% fit.

This World cup is weird i really cannot pick a winner. Holland typical peak to early and the with a robben dive cheat there way to a win . Costa rica look so shit against Greece and went through . Brazil very boring the list goes on maybe the Germans but Algeria have a score to settle regarding that famous German v Austria game.

What do you get if you match together Arjen Robben with Fergie Time ? A divers watch.

Com on Colombia ..
