    I love that PSV lost (even to Feyenoord) and they are almost completely out of top 3 contention. Herenveen is nipping at our heels. AZ & Twente don't lose!!!!!!!! Bastards.

    Stek needs to stop sulking, Vermeer won his starting sport fair and square

    No need to get your knickers in a twist. It's just the rules. To carry the koninklijke label you to have an absolutely spotless hundred year history. Whether you're the local bakery or Ajax, the rules apply to everybody.

    Well OM beat PSG yesterday, hopefully Wednesday's game will be too early for them! Not sure about any injuries, I think only Kone limped off the field.

    A victory on Wednesday brings the Helmond Cup back to the country of its birth. A loss and the cup will be wandering around Europe for a long time.

    For the sake of his career and with the World Cup next summer, Stekelenburg should leave. I heard AC Milan is looking for a goalkeeper..

    It does. It pretty much rules out every football club.

  14. To my great joy "De Telegraaf" has announced it suffered a loss last year of almost 400 million €€ (= 500 + million $$)

    360.8 mln euro's... peanuts really compared to AIG. Go overweight financial stocks!

    The sooner that excuse for a paper goes bankrupt the better. They were Nazi collaborators in the war, I mean enough said.

    We are seeing the same thing happen to newspapers here in the US. A number have closed and today one of the Seattle papers said it is going to Web only service.

    Based on injuries & suspensions I envision something like this for Marseille tomorrow. Urby will probably push up and turn this into a 4-3-3 if we struggle to score early on.

    Vermeer
    Silva--Oleguer--Alderweireld--Schilder
    Anita--Aissati--Enoh--Urby
    Suarez--Sulejmani​

    That's that exact starting XI that goal.com has. I'm a little worried about the back 4. Missing Vermaelen and Van der Weil is huge, as is Vertoghen who could add a good push from the left. Hope Siem De Jong is ready to go, even if it's for a cameo.

    I use de Telegraaf to get my Dutch sport fix and to work on keeping my Dutch reading sharp, do you have other suggestions?

    There's no way Stek is good enough for Serie A, let alone AC Milan.
    Sorry to be blunt, but its true

    Yeah I mean Cvitanich is not likely to play, he pulled another hammy against De Graafschap. Options are kind of limited in terms of players with experience so this is the lineup that makes most sense. Urby gives us the versatility to play somewhere between a 4-4-2 and a 4-3-3 depending on the flow of the game.
