The Dutch national team are a blessing to bloggers. If you're ever struggling for something to write about, just check in with the Oranje and the answer will come, usually in the form of squabbling.

Real Madrid's Ruud van Nistelrooy rejected a call up to the Dutch squad, after Marco van Basten (pictured) selected him to replace Klaas-Jan Huntelaar, and Bayern Munich midfielder Mark van Bommel has told the KNVB (Dutch FA) that he no longer wants to play under the current coaching staff (ie van Basten).

Vantastic! (sorry)
