Exactly as I expected, 'The Football Focus Marco van Basten Award for the Second Best Euro Goal Ever' has split you guys every which way!

Some of you, like UKNavajo, are adamant Gazza deserves it whilst the likes of ShunsukeNakamura25 seems to disagree somewhat! A fair chunk of you were impressed by Poborsky's and Brolin's efforts, while Ray Houghton and Figo both got mentions. But seems to shade the votes as the second best ever at this stage.

Interesting to note the almost non-existent comments questioning whether Van Basten deserves top spot...on that we all seem agreed.

As much as there has been debate about the goals, there has been quite a bit of intrigue about whether we'll actually get hold of Marco and, if we do, how he will react to being asked to crown the second best strike.

In my last blog, we quizzed the Dutch press team about the chances of me getting to the man himself. The answer was pretty simple, if you get yourself to our training ground you can chance your arm.

So Marco and Dirk Kuyt both seem to agree that 'that strike' in 88 is the best ever, and I must admit I'm not surprised Marco wants a little more time to decide on second spot.

He had just finished his first session with the squad in Lausanne and was being bombarded with questions about the fitness of (in training but not match fit) and whether his side have the firepower to succeed (he seems to think so).

He seemed intrigued by the topic, and I'm pretty sure over the coming weeks we will get the definitive answer we're looking for!

In the meantime, let me know what strike you think Marco will plump for. Can , do the business and steal Marco's crown. And is there a goal that has slipped our attention altogether?
