Possible Holland Lineup To Face Brazil – Manchester United Striker May Not Start

Midfield:

Nigel De Jong was fit enough to last an hour and might invariabley start alongside the likes of Giorginho Wijnaldum and Wesley Snjeider to hold fort in the middle of the park. Arjen Robben has claimed that Argentina don’t even stand a chance against the Germans in the final at the Maracana and the pacy winger who remains the trump card for Holland starts for the Dutch. The dutch midfield looks thin and wafer breadth like but their tactical flexibility and versatility should match the Brazilians in the middle of the park if they are to get anything from the encounter.

Strikeforce:

Robin Van Persie was hardly effective against Argentina and the Brazilian defense will look to keep the Manchester United striker quiet throughout the match. It would be interesting to see if Van Gaal decides to tinker and tweak the front line, instead preferring the exuberance for Klaas Jan Huntelaar for the game. The Schalke forward came on as a substitute in the semi final but failed to make an impression and its also believed that he refused to take a penalty in the shootout.
