Ironically I had pretty much written off Robben already, just like the majority of Dutch fans I'd imagine. He had barely played and when he played he was most of the time diving or wasting chances by being selfish.
But then he suddenly made a very strong impression in the pre-tournament warm-up games... so strong that he made it to my fantasy team.
When I switched on the TV 5 minutes for the Switzerland-Czech Republic game and heard about his injury I immediately switched on the computer to transfer him out of my team. Because it was just for the dedline I picked the first midfielder I saw for the same price: Deco.
If I'd had two minutes extra to look around before he deadline I would've picked the slightly cheaper Modric instead and upgrade Panucci to Zambrotta... damn.
