Always good seeing the Van Basten too , Euro 88 was the second bug tournament I remember watching and everytime we played headers and volleys for months afterwards we were trying the Van Basten.

If not Griffiths then a Robbo, or a McCoist. A natural predator. Would be interesting to see how McCoist and Robbo would have coped in todays game. Robbo was to me a far more rounded player and teammate than McCoist. McCoist far more just a six yard box poacher but not a teammate. I may well be biased and revising history to suit my love of Robbo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwidoug Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 Looking forward to Holland. They can be absolute heidbangers. Remember that WC final against Spain. Brilliantly talented side who against all odds adopted the strategy of kicking Spain off the park. Never a dull moment with these blokes.
