Van Bommel

[tecolotebuho]

I truly miss the V-Bomb. It took 2 years to recover from his loss.

Given Barca's need for help for Busquets while Yaya and Keita are gone in January,
would it be out of the question to approach Bayern with a one-month loan offer?

 

[Barcaman]

Who knows, now that Bayern got Tymoschuk they might even consider.

 

[Jesse1509]

He's quite important to the Netherlands national team too. He forms a great partnership with Nigel de Jong:they are the backbone of the team, because they've got the most touches on the ball, and therefore the most passes. And they conquer the ball many times of course, especially Van Bommel. He's more useful than Engelaar, who used to play at De Jong's side.

 

[Abaddon]

One of the most disgusting players in recent memory.

 

[tecolotebuho]

So,
What possesed Rijkaard to dispose of Von Bommel and Gio.

They obviously were important parts of the sucessful run.
And they are both important on th Dutch NT.

I know, he's prejudiced against the Dutch.

Why would he be? He's Dutch himself.

 

[tecolotebuho]

I know.

Attempt at humor.

 

[Labinn]

he was innocent..

 

[Evil]

Let's remember the good things Van Bommel did

 

[Jordzibob]

he was innocent..

This is a really random topic, but he wasnt innocent. I dont care if Henry scored or not, he should have been sent off for that without question. It wasnt just a push or a late challenge, he elbowed him in the fucking face, blatantly aswell. It was a disgusting thing to do and it clearly wasnt an accident, if you watch the video its deliberate, its just the only way they could stop Messi.

 

[maz]

Its who he was, and its why we loved him so much. I dont know whether its wrong or right that we now hate him because he does the same thing for another team, but either way we shouldnt be so surprised.

 

[FCB_Titi_LB]

he was trying a shoulder push but didnt realise messi was that small

 

[Cule Angles]

He took Messi out in classic MVB style. Love it. (the style, not the fact that it was Messi)

 

[Snyde]

Yeah, at first I was f*cking angry at him but after seeing that Messi was ok I couldn't help but say classic MVB

Funny thing is most Bayern fans don't appreciate him or his qualities.

 

[VivaBarca]

Don't know how he wasn't sent off for that. But I liked him when he played for us.
