Wesley Sneijder

Trequartista

The good
It wasn't a great performance ... you didn't even realise he was in the game until he scored.

Ok,I will tell you one thing,It wont be easy to notice any midfielder if you watch the match for fun,Sneijder was at the heart of the build up for every pass,the players searched for him,even when playing as an AMF in the 4--2-3-1 formation,he was involved a lot,Look at Xavi in the 4-2-3-1 he looks completely anonymous,I dont say Sneijder is better than Xavi,Xavi doesnt give his best in that position because he is a player who prefers to play in a deeper role to help in the build up,Sneijder controlled the tempo today very well and was the best player on the pitch,At the Brasil match,he wasnt at his best and I was isolated until he scored the goal but 2day if you say that he wasnt good then sorry to say that you understand nothing about football.

All of the goals Holland scored this WC came from him.. ALL...

He was or the scorer, or the one that assisted.. If not, he was the man who passed the ball to the man who assisted for sure. ATM, Definitelly the best pure AM out there, you cant deny that, unless you are ignorant because of hatred. IMHO At this form, top 3-4 players for sure.

Pajo, tsk tsk...Sneijder is terrific but the world's best?...I couldn't agree with that

What I recall with Sneijder is a player who was utterly marked out of matches whenever Yaya was in them, so I couldn't call him the world's best anything to be marked out of a match by one player.

That being said, it's an impossible distinction to make, who is the best AM, atm...He's among the best, I think that is something most would agree

In general yes, even when he was in real i was saying that.. I said that ATM, this season, especially the end of it and the WC.. SO i do believe that at this very moment, he is the best...

Top player, sure... Golden Ball winner, no... But considering that award is a joke everytime there's a WC (and half the times there isn't) I wouldn't be surprised...

that is because in the dutch team, they can only rely on sneijder for some creativity.
but ur right. he is in the top 5

Sneijder will win the Golden Ball. He is Holand´s best player, and one of the best scorers of the WC. He also won all he could for Inter.
It still missing half season, but I doubt that anything will change after the World Cup.

basically, since he shaved his head and started banging yolanthe... he's become awesome.

he's not had a great tournament in terms of performances but things are going for him (an own goal credited to him, goalie lets the ball out of his hands into the net, double-deflections on his goal yesterday) and really if you can't be good, be lucky. and the dutch are very lucky right now.

will that run out in the final? we'll see.
