Soo..the problem is with Bastan who still till now didnt get that Netherlands with out Nistelrooy sucks>>>>
Didnt he get that if Nistelrooy played the match against England he could have scored 3 goals or more??

After wc & d match where Van Basten didn't let Nistelrooy to play, Rudd proclaimed that he won't play 4 Holland where Van Basten is d coach.
In that unique match( Netherlands vs Portugal) Van Basten prefered Kute than Rud & Holland left germany.there4 there was an argument btvn Vans & that's d story.

A lot of theories, but I'm going with the story that Ruud van Nistelrooy and Marco van Basten fell out and could not see eye to eye.
Mark van Bommel also fell out with van Basten too.

No, he didnt retire...he's at Real Madrid. But even if he was fit, there is a good chance he wouldn't have played yesterday.
Friendly matches, which have nothing at stake, are often used by national coaches to try out young inexperienced players who are on the fringe of the main team, in order to see how they fit in.
Look at England's team last right..it was also far from "full strength" and had several new players in it.

Well not even van der Sar or Kuijt were playing. I'm very glad Seedorf is back though, he deserves it. He's a world class player and I honestly thought Holland could win the World Cup this year but alas it was not so.

hi ,
you gave me an excellent answer in my last question and i hope that i will give you one too.
i was also very surprised , in fact i researched a Lil and i found out that he had a slight sprain on his leg feet during the practice early that day.
here's what the coach said before the match .
' Rudd just got a slight leg sprain and i am afraid he will have to miss the all important today's match ."
thank you .
