i have to say i'm extremely disappointed in Own Goal's performance thus far, he looked great all year in the EPL and has yet to make an impact at the Euros

as a close second i have to mention blown PK call. the refs have already missed at a minimum 2 fouls in the box

Robben was shite. Add RvP to that list.

Let's see, I bet he cuts in with his left foot and hits a screamer five yards wide.

...

Yep.

(Rinse and repeat 20 times.)

He's like a glitchy finesse shot taker in FIFA. Only thing he knows how to do.

Speaking of KNVB, Sneijder looked really, really good. Last time I saw him, he was getting booed by Inter fans

NOT REAL INTER FANS.

Sneijder's one of the few saving graces on that team.

I don't know how you could be mad at Robben. He did what he always does. That's his game.

Glitchier than a Beckham free kick? I swear that there's a line of code in that game that allows him to do unholy things with that ball that no one else can do.

It's just frustrating to see him do that when there were open guys far post. After about the fifth straight miss, you think he would try something else. I know that's his game, but still.

Just because of the hype and because I hadn't see him play much I was disappointed in Christian Erikssen (sp?). I remember him getting like three touches before getting subbed off.

Yes, I've seen fade away finesse shots go in that would make Kobe Bryant blush.

If he misses it 6 times and buries the 7th one, you don't give a shite about the first 6 he missed.

He would have been a better buy than Kagawa for United imo, even though Kagawa is really good I guess. I haven't seen him play much, but he is sick w/ Dortmund on FIFA12 Sneijder would kill it in EPL though

Maybe. But I'd rather him mix it up a bit and hit a streaking RvP over missing number six. If he hits number seven, he'll just go and miss six more. Too predictable. I'm sure he's got plenty of ability to do something else with that chance.

All I'm saying is that getting mad at Robben for cutting in on his left foot and shooting is like getting mad at a 1 year old for shitting himself.

RVP wasn't exactly brilliant for the Dutch either. Robben does get a little predictable but that's his game.

Theyre using rvp wrong, and robben has never lived up to the hype for me.

Then you haven't paid attention. I get so frustrated with him sometimes but there are times when he will flat out win a game for you.

If it wasn't for injuries, he'd be a top 5 player in the world.
