I don't think that there is anyway RVN and Makaay could play together. They both require too much service and would not give it to each other. Holland needs someone who can replace Bergkamp, some one to creat goals and to score. That person is most definitely Rafael Van der Vaart. He made to play that position and Holland needs him, so he must be played. As for the other striking position, I think that Holland coaches have often made the mistake of using Kluivert as a striker. The man is way too inclined to pass to be a striker, and he isn't that good of a finisher. Also, I don't see how he can continue to play well for the NT when he is in terrible form for Barca (With the recent exception of a lucky goal.) I'd say that he has to be left on the bench. As for RVN, I don't think that he's good at all in the the holland squad. There's somethign about him, that just doesn't fit right. It's a shame, but considering the importance of this match, he's a risk that should not be taken. Anyone who would seriously consider starting Van Hoijdonk or Hasselbaink needs to have their brain examined. Thus, we are left with Roy Makaay, arguably the most in form Dutch striker and the most likely to score given the lack of service form the wings that has plagued the Dutch team of late. The final strike pairing, IMO, should be: Van der Vaart-Makaay
