Compound with the poisoned trifecta and they're reminisce of the French in 2010.
My prediction:
The Spanish shred them apart in game one, expediting the mutiny.

Yes, too many Eredivisie players... especially on defence.
Cillessen isn't a mediocre keeper. In fact, if I look at all WC squads there are maybe 3 or 4 goalies ahead of Cillessen. Believe me.
His style is pretty much the same as Courtois. (boring but effective)
Spain will win, however it won't be a big win.
Spain always struggles the first match of a tournament. We usually start of strong.
I'd say 2-0 or 3-1 Spain.
I just don't want to see Robben go one on one with Cassilas. That will bring back some painful memories.
(and if it happens, I bet he will score this time)
