UEFA Club Footballer of the Year Nominees...

Last season, Internazionale won the treble. And their Nerazurri's are also the players dominating the list which includes Wesley Sneijder, Diego Milito, Julio César, Maicon and Lucio. Barcelona came in second with two nominees, Victor Valdes,Xavi and Gerard Pique. Arjen Robben and Hugo Lloris also made the cut with Wayne Rooney being the only Englishman and player from the Premier League to be in the nominees' list.

The Nominees Are:

Julio César of Inter Milan
Hugo Lloris of Olympique Lyonnais
Victor Valdes from FC Barcelona
Lucio of Inter
Maicon of Inter Milan who won the treble with José Mourinho last season.
The Very Sexy Catalan Gerard Pique also is nominated.
Wesley Sneijder was a key part of Inter's success as the playmaker lead them to their first ever treble.
While Sneijder's former club teammate and international colleague, Arjen Robben also had a terrific season with Bayern Munich by helping them doing the domestic double and leading them to the final of the Champions League.
The very cute Xavi Hernandez also gets his work for Barcelona noticed.
Possibly the best player in the world, Lionel Messi may have another award to add to his already large collection.
Diego Milito of Internazionale. Like I said, Inter dominates the nominees list.
Last but not the least, as I save the best for last....the one and only Wayne Rooney. Rooney was key to United's winning ways with him being named PFA Player of the Year.


Oh yeah, results to be revealed on 26th of August in Monaco, when the draw for this season's group stage is made.

The Netherlands are the first to qualify for last 16

The Dutch are the only side to win 2 games in a row after defeating Denmark 2-0 last week and Japan 1-0 yesterday.
The man of the match: Wesley Sneijder (who is very uncomfortable with Dutch coach Bert van Marwyk)
Starting XI
No short tents for us....
World Cup is no lacking of shirtless footballers after the final whistle. Just ask Dirk Kuyt
Injured Arjen Robben was on the bench for both games.

Lets celebrate Dutch pride by watching a new NiKE ad!

Pre-World Cup Injury List Grows

Diego Forland injured his knee during training...
Arjen Robben injured his hamstring in Hollands 6-1 win over Hungary

Both are doubts for the World Cup alongside Didier Drogba....hopefully they won't have the same faith as Rio Ferdinand.

Robben Apologizes After Touchline Row with Gaffer



ARJEN ROBBEN has apologised to Bayern Munich's fans following his touchline bust-up with boss Louis van Gaal.

The two Dutchmen rowed face-to-face as Robben ignored Van Gaal's outstretched hand after being substituted in Wednesday's Champions League clash with Lyon.

But former Chelsea star Robben now admits his reaction was born out of frustration.

He said: "I had a really good feeling and felt I was really in the game and I could have scored another goal.

"Therefore, I could not understand why I was being removed. But I have to apologise to all of the fans because I shouldn't do that.

"I should have been more professional, but this is just part of my mentality - I always want to win."

Robben scored the only goal in Munich's semi-final, first-leg victory.

And Van Gaal insisted he simply wanted to rest Robben for Saturday's Bundesliga trip to Borussia Monchengladbach, adding: "We need him to score goals there, too.

P.S: I saw the bust-up LIVE on ESPN and Louis van Gaal was pointing his forefinger at Arjen after the incident which meant he was reassuring who was the boss.
