The BIG one - Preview: Czech Republic v Netherlands

Friday, 12 December 2008



Later on today, Czech Republic will take on Netherlands in a large attempt to pile pressure on Netherlands manager Grant for him to face more problems.
Grant who took the job at the end of last month has become unpopular around a handfull of Dutch players after the Brit installed a new rule which rocked Netherlands.
The rule was part of Grants new scheme which was in Grants plans to tackle bad attitudes and racism which as effected Netherlands in the past.
Netherlands have been known on Javaball as the immature bunch that everyone look down on, but since Grant has taken over he has kept his word.
Though Grant installing this rule, and appointing noob as his assistant manager and Max (Carrick) as his coach, Netherlands players such as Vennegoor (Ralph) and a few others are saying he is destroying Netherlands.
Ralph claims that it is a tradition that Dutch players should act this way and for a foreigner to enter the country as manager and mess with the tradition is way out of line.
A number of Dutch players are shocked at Grants selection to face Czech Republic but after he dropped a number of players from the squad he said he had no choice but to do this.

It's a great time to face Netherlands and i'm sure Czech will be looking to cause an upset with so much turmoil on the Dutch path.
Czech have been training hard for this match and S.Vleck has told us that he is confident Czech will pick up their first ever international win.
"I have good faith in the team i have chosen, i know the attackers will cause Netherlands problems and hopefully we can take advantage of the situation they are in and win the match."

You can see the match live at 18:00 GMT, 19:00 CZE/NED on the Javaball website.

JBO Prediction: A very intresting game, Czech are improving but with a mixed number of experienced players i'm sure Netherlands will come out winners. My prediction is Czech Republic 1 - 5 Netherlands.
