I think the Dutch are a better team than Argentina and I think the Argentines have gotten this far based on luck of the draw. They havent played any really strong teams and barely got by Switzerland and Belgium. And Messi, who manages to pull rabbits out of hats when its needed the most.

If the Dutch want to win they've got to after them like they did against Spain.
Argentina is too dependent on Messi. You watch Fernando Gago, all he does when he receives the ball is give to Messi and then stands there. He then wait for the opponent's attack, wins the ball again later and gives it to Messi.
