wycombe Posted June 19, 2004 Author Share Posted June 19, 2004 Ruud gets a point for the goal, deducted several points for several crude dives. and ill mannered behaviour towards the ref, shouting in his face ffs Ruud's leaving a mark on this tournament and it's not a pretty one.

Scatter Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 hardly. i would think the dutch are favourites to go through ahead of the germans at this stage. even if the krauts get a draw against the czechs, the number of goals scored by the dutch would put them through (provided of course they beat latvia). only a german win against the czechs will guarantee them passage, and seeing as the czechs will probably want to avoid Italy, I can't see them throwing the game.

wycombe Posted June 19, 2004 Author Share Posted June 19, 2004 the only thing that matters is team success, I think it's been proved that RVN can't drive a team like Henry, he's very much a passenger. plus he missed an absolute sitter and thus should take sole responsibilty for holland going out, I suggest a loan spell back PSV as punishment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

symons99 Posted June 19, 2004 Share Posted June 19, 2004 wow more Henry vs RVN rubbish anyway dont people realise they are 2 completely different types of striker? Also as a Man Utd fan id have to be honest and say that all round Henry is a class above RVN but as an out and out striker RVN is above Henry so at the end the day they are both worldclass and not much to choose between them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
