The last 2 world cups, from what I remember, they were great in the group stages and then when it came to the knockout rounds they fluffed it and played crap. Although in 2002 they did reach the semis if I remember rightly..

Yeah, the Dutch and English are a lot alike in this sport. They have all the talent in the world and never seem to fully get it together. I'm rooting for the Netherlands though. I don't mind the English but I can't stand their national team.
Netherlands in 2010.

Of course, the only thing set in stone in that scenario is the US beating England... Other than that the US matchups are somewhat of a tossup.
