^ One Direction. Some good vibes today. Kittel won yesterday in the Tour and Germany won their game convincingly. Only a few minutes ago Dutchie Lars Boom won in #TDF.
If de Jong and van Persie are not 100% fit they should not start; don't want to have to sub players early in a match like this. Of course LvG knows this.
Anyone here find a Mick Jagger pix wearing an Argentine jersey? That would just freak out our South American counterparts
Holland starting XI: Cillessen, De Vrij, Vlaar, Martins Indi, Kuyt, De Jong, Sneijder, Wijnaldum, Blind, Robben, Van Persie. Argentina starting XI: Romero, Zabaleta, Demichelis, Garay, Rojo, Perez, Biglia, Mascherano, Lavezzi, Messi, Higuain.

Maradonna said Netherlands will lose like in 1978 and that Robben will play no role. He will not even touch the ball.
I just hope both teams will play football and let each other play as well. Hope it won't be a stop and go affair with lots of small fouls and the ref whistling it to death...
Mardona has lost a lot of brain cells over the years and his performance as a manager in the last WC disqualifies him from making any predictions.
I hope LvG brings Huntelaar earlier on, especially if RvP is being invisible. I think he would feast on those tired CB's if he's brought on around the 60-65th minute.
