Unbelievable

Uh oh... 3-1..

Drenthe gets his ovational sub.. Man of the tournament candidate along with Babel I think..

Holland. Lol, NAC Breda, our old Uefa Cup friends (and Ronald's club <= Ronald the poster on here that is).. The match is getting embarrasing now btw..

Lol, the words of a madman. Their defence is shocking tonight.. Hope you haven't put a bet in..?

penalty after good work from Babel and Drenthe again.. Edit: but Babel misses it..

3-0!!!! Rigters!!! European championship u21 top goalscorer available for a fixed 200k fee.. Wonder who's gonna snap him up.. Babel looks like getting man of the match. If Arsenal has scouts watching this final it will have certainly increased the chances of a move for him..

2-0!!! Babel goal.. Shocking defending by the Serbs again after they had been stronger in the second half so far.. Serb player sent off now as well for a foul on Babel in midfield. It seems to be as good as over..

Bloody hell... Crap defending by Holland.. Should have been the equaliser..

True, the Serbs are worryingly dominant on their set pieces and Waterman (Waterreus is the former PSV and Rangers goalkeeper) is flapping at the ball, so anything can happen in the second half. Holland should have had a second however, yet De Ridder blasted it over from 10 feet out..

Serbia very lucky not to have a defender sent off for deliberate hands ball..

Goal Holland.. Bakkal 1-0!!!! Excellent assist De Ridder.. Good stuff!

Final between Holland and Serbia tonight.. Place your bets.

I've done some reading up on him on a French Olympique Lyon site and it seems it's not so much his ability that's caused him to play as much as you'd expect, but a clash of personalities with Houllier.. It seems to have started with Diarra refusing to play for their reserves after a period of being out with injuries. It's put my mind at ease a bit; they seem to think he's talented at least, and I rate Allardyce's man management skills higher than Houlier's..

Still nobody who´s actually seen this Diarra bloke play regularly? What is everybody basing their optimism on?

Everybody´s all over the moon, but has anybody actually seen this bloke play on a regular basis? I don´t think his resume in combination with his price tag quite warrants the current enthousiasm..

26 years old and yet to be a hit anywhere..? I´d rather Sam worked his magic on what we already have here and on players that we can at least realistically expect to be of Premiership level, especially for 6 million.. For that money we should be able to do better and with our new found wealth we should certainly be aiming higher in my opinion..

he wouldn't see the ball half as much as he did at West Ham, wouldn't be devestating at all Henry saw enough of the ball to hit the net about 30 times a season..

He's flopped at Lyon apparently; only featured in 9 games for them.. He physically looks the perfect DM, but that's not to say he's good enough, a lesson I hope we´ve learned with Oneywu.. To be honest I don´t know enough of him, but he´s not been able to impress at Olympique Lyon and they´re willing to let him go after just one season, so I´d be wary to splash a huge amount on him..

Owen's gone then..?

Do you think we tempt the likes of Rozehnal with a place on our bench when other clubs the size of Dortmund and Sevilla are also knocking on their door?

Yeah, c'mon Carol Vordaman lets have the answer I was just pointing out that based on a birth date of 09/10/1975 he obviously isn't 33 as elbee claimed..

And that makes him 33?

I'd say that's what you get for always needing to be different, but that's just stupid... Does this go for any other sports?

So there won't be any England u21 players?

Oh right. Weird. Why can't we send a team like? See above. I think you're already there..?
