Players

The Holland team are very strong in attacking aswell as defending but some may argue that their defence is the worst out of all the top nations. Their attack oozes power with names such as Ruud Van Nistelrooy, Robin van Persie, Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, Arjen Robben and Dirk Kuyt. Their midfield is also very influencing with players like Rafael van der Vaart, Nigel de Jong, Denny Landzaat, Clarence Seedorf and Wesley Sneijder. They have a solid Goalkeeper in Edwin Van Der Sar and his young back up Maarten Stekelenburg. Holland's best defenders would have to be John Heitinga and Urby Emanuelson but the rest are very average
