Damn right

That said, the night he came on for the CL final turned things for me as he played out of his skin... however, he arguably could have stopped both Barca goals :S

No no, just qualifies through the residency rule

However, isnt Hargreave sonly 1/4 English (ie one parent is half Enlgish)?

Owen Lee Hargreaves was born in Canada, But both parents where english, they emergrated 5 months before his birth.

So he could play for both England and Canada.

at 16 he was picked up by Munich and played and lived in German from 1997. After four years you can get citizenship of the EU country you are in, which he if decided to do he could of played for German.

And Van Der Sar is a more than capable keeper to have on the bench.

And is still first choice for Holland

And just to honour him for the greatest comedy moment in football when Ariel Ortega headbutted him.
