I hope Costa Rica thrash the Netherlands. Arjen Robben needs a good slap frankly.

If Holland turn up they will thrash Costa Rica, the Quarter finals have been an anti climax.

I wonder if Rudd Gulet is working for Dutch tv tonight or something because he was on yesterday but not tonight during his country's game.

A dive is a yellow card.
Hoping Holland win, would much rather Argentina v Holland than Argentina v Costa Rica. |

Do Holland have a better record on penalties in field hockey?
Maybe they could seek advice from their hockey counterparts? |

Bryan Ruiz looks about a stone lighter than he did when playing regularly for Fulham.
Still he is the last of the Fulham stars who have lit up this World Cup, so go Bry |

I just want Costa Rica to have a go. France didn't. Belgium didn't. Columbia did but only late on.
Hopefully Costa Rica don't concede an early goal - that's been a feature in all the quarter finals so far, with the team scoring first eventually winning the game in 3rd gear. |

He should be banned, the same as Suarez - FIFA Fair Play and all. |

Should Robben actually being playing considering he has admitted cheating. I like the Dutch team but it leaves a bad taste.
We are such sanctimonious hypocrites in this country sometimes. |

If Costa Rica go through Argentina would have effectively had a cakewalk to the final, I want Holland to go through so finally somebody might give them a game.

I thought it was going to be a karaoke for a moment.

Well you never know, but this ought to be as close to a bye for Holland as you can get in a QF.

As European as I am, and as much as I love the idea of free flowing Dutch football, I simply cannot support any team that features the Cheaten Robben ba.....d.
He should be banned, the same as Suarez - FIFA Fair Play and all. Quote:
He's openly admitted to cheating. What more do you want?

I want a Germany v Holland final partly to annoy the host country.

Costa Rica probably will put up a better fight that Belgium or France, can't be any worse surely. |

For admitting something that is a yellow card offence?
See above, if his dive was spotted he wouldn't have been sent off, it's nothing like what Suarez did. I don't agree with diving, it's embarrassing, but it's punished within the rules of the game. Fan of Ben Johnson? Linford Christie? Mike Tyson? Lance Armstrong? Hell ... why not go all the way and teach kids in PE that cheating is a good idea. |

I know this is too much to ask, but could this game actually be about the football and not the cheating and diving?.....
