Some average banter between Van der Vaar and Sneijder over Tweeter prior to their game tonight:
Sneijder: "I'm cleaning the Champions League trophy with a Tottenham shirt."
Van der Vaart: "Thanks for cleaning it up for me. I'm already creating space in my cup cabinet."
Sneijder: "We're gonna give you a football lesson in London."
Van der Vaart: "I met your defence in Milan, it didn't look good. It was like cheese with holes in it."
Sneijder: "I found a good goalkeeper on eBay. Shall I send you the link?"
Van der Vaart: "We don't need him, you won't come into our penalty area!"
Sneijder also mocked English football claiming it is all about power and athleticism not skill and technique and took the mickey out of Van der Vaart's goal from a few inches out against Everton.
Sneijder: "In that country football is a game where you have to run as hard as you can from the one end of the pitch to the other, isn't it?... Nice goal, but even my six year old cousin would have scored this one."
Van der Vaart: "These goals also count but at White Hart Lane against you guys I will score from every angle."
