A lack of other options l suppose as he is most likely to be Englands match winner even though he will only play the last game of the group.

I understand that 1 den but if you look at how he played in the world cup but then nobody in the England team performed.
Now will he allow the wags to join the squad

It's because when....um I mean if England get eliminated before the semis and Rooney wasn't in the squad, everyone will blame Woy for not including him.

l hope not because in my mind a players mind should be totally focused on the job in hand and that is performimg to the maximum of their ability.

Kind of... Ajax are 6 points clear with 2 games to play, and their GD is 24 better than Feyenoord, so unless they lose the next two games 10-0, they take the title. Don't ask me about specific players though.

:( I was going to ask for opinions/ trackrecord of Vertonghen playing LB?

One of the most talented players in Dutch football would be Christian Eriksen who plays for Ajax but the Dutch league for many many years has always produced technicaly gifted footballers from the days of Cruyff to Gullit, Bergkamp right through to RVP.

Yeah they have awesome setups over there :tu:

Eriksen has ruled out a move to England. He wants to stay at Ajax. Ajax tried throwing him in the Vertoghen deal to inflate the fee.

Eriksen is probably right to stay. At 20 he's probably better off staying with Ajax for a while longer and get playing time, as opposed to spending time on the bench at a bigger club. But, virtually all Dutch clubs struggle to hold on to their talented players. It's a small league in a country with a population of 16 million. Hard to compete with the money floating around the Premiership/La Liga etc.

Verthongen is a decent lb and would work perfectly with Vermaelen they played together at Ajax and also play together in the Belgian national football team.

Regarding the Dutch league in general it is more an academy nowadays then a contender for say CL finales like it used to be in the 80's

The Belgian's are going to have a really good team for years to come.
