Even Robben didn't believe that was a foul but he still tried.... Cheating t*at

Van Gaal is very tactically astute. Even more so than Ferguson who relied on motivational powers more than tactics. Van Gaal can shift from ultra attacking to ultra defending. I can see him playing Mourinho style against us and breaking quickly rather than a standard system like Moyes used.

We won't do the double on them this year IMO.

Brilliant 2nd goal for the dutch there, brilliant pass from De Jong, great run and cross from Robben. 3 wins from 3, the Dutch could win this, they've got their tactics spot on. Maybe they slightly underestimated Australia but other than that, they've been good. Robben player of the tournament so far.

It would be hilarious if Brazil now finishes second in their group and Holland end up playing them in the next round.
