Haha. Damn.

Bad reaction but I can understand where he is coming from. The feeling of lack of trust or that the coach trusts someone else to do it better.

This has been the GKs World Cup.

LOL @ the thread someone made where he said keepers just flail their arms around and keeping requires no skill. I hope it was still open so we could make fun of that fool, SMH.
 
Our defense isn't shitty, that's the kind of talk from the media. Or a way of saying. In reality it's good, but not among the top of the top, which is needed to play at the absolute top. So it's weaker in the back, but not that much as the popular voice seems to be. If it was we would be out already.

True. I dare say that Argentina has a far worse defense. They just have Messi who can win a match for you. But heck.. We dutchies have Robben. It is going to be a nerve-racking match for us but a fun one for the casual spectator.
 
Ok, for what's to come:

Brazil - Germany: Is a though one. It could go either way. Despite I think they're by far the weakest brazillian team ever, I'll be rooting for them just because they're fun to watch (to a certain degree). Germany on the contrary, yeah... they are fast, physically dominant and efficient, but I swear they're so damn boring to watch. I somebody tells me the Germany team consists of a bunch of robots, I'd fully believe it.

Netherlands - Argentina: I think it's safe to say Netherlands will win. This Argentina is the same as Brazil, worst team ever. Messi is the only great player there, Di María is pretty good too. The rest are so average it hurts, specially when you consider how many world class players they have had. I see Argentina winning only if Messi is ultra inspired that day (hard to happen cause Netherlands players will beat the shit out of him), or if they end with penalties, where anything can happen.

It would be epic a Brazil - Argentina final match :) :)

Cillessen was not informed about this backup plan anytime during the past seven weeks van Gaal said to keep him focussed. Furthermore it's no discussion who will be the keeper the next match (Cillessen) van Gaal added. The team is so focussed, everyone has its part to play and its awesome. Would not surprise me If Clasie will play instead of Wijnaldum against Argentina.

When does a keeper ever get taken off anyway? Hardly ever happens, unless hes injured.
So I think it's quite natural for a keeper to act like this, not used to getting taken out.

No. It is immature. Everyone takes a bite out of the bitter apple whenever he gets subsituted, even Van Persie and he did not react that way. Cillessen should be ashamed of himself.

Krul is also the better goalie i.m.o, though Cillessen has been solid this wc (let's forget about the goal Mexico scored)

Didn't i say "random argentina fans?" I was talking specifically about that bunch of cunts.

Good to know, i see a lot of hatred towards Argentina lately. Especially on GAF.
Still, we keep moving forward no matter how hard everyone tries to undermine their efforts.

I'm so tired of that face.


Just stahp, all of the free kicks/cards given after Robben got kicked today were legit.
You may not like the man and I agree he does dive sometimes but keeping it classy and seeing those challenges for what they are will get your more respect than telling everyone he's diving on every challenge....

Dude was solid today, no denying it
 
Yep, like some of the guys around here saying that we are all cocky arrogant pricks.
Whatever.

Yeah, dont mind that.
Thats said, a lot of argentina supporters that actually traveled here are not very polite. Maybe too 'hardcore' fans (barra-brava stuff?)

I missed the game today because i got no ticket (first match in brasilia i missed), but my dad went with his wife.
He told me he got two see at least 2 'fights' because argentinians refused to sit down to let people behind then watch the game.
The problem usually ended up in beer getting thrown everywhere.

I don't if every single one of them is a legit foul . . . he's just such a cry baby and it is so annoying to watch. Man up you wuss.

Funny how all the best players are called divers

Robben, Neymar, Suarez

Maybe they are just being fouled a lot because they are so damn good you know
