Yahoo News: EURO 2008 Soccer: Dutch stars have stolen the Euro show - by Martin Rogers

Dutch stars have stolen the Euro show - World Soccer - Yahoo! Sports

Those who have followed Euro 2008 on television may be surprised by
some of the choices in our list of the top 30 players of the group
stages. Some players on the list have hardly been mentioned by commentators
focused on the ball. We prefer to look at a player’s overall body of
work.

The best thing about having the privilege to be at the tournament is
the opportunity to witness the thought processes and movement away from
the ball that makes Europe’s top players special.

It should be no shock that the Dutch are heavily represented following
their unbeaten run in the Group of Death. The list is topped by Wesley
Sneijder, who made life miserable for both the World Cup champions and
finalists with his vision and trickery.
