Holland is OK, olé olé... I really think Holland will win this one. Russia are

playing about as well as they can at the moment and seem they could play all night and not score, although I'd love to see one of those Kolodin belters go in, simply cos we haven't seen one like that yet !

My prediction - Sneijder back to the left wing, and van Persie on to play right wing and force them to defend both flanks, thereby opening up the central midfield, meaning that Pavlyuchenko's knock downs will get picked up by Holland and even when he does control the ball he will have no-one to lay it off to. In my opinion, that would kill off Russia.

Tell you what though - wouldn't mind that Pavlyuchenko replacing Dublin as target man ;-)
