Today I roll out the carpet for Bouchra van Persie. The woman who was once said to have a bad influence on Van Persie's career. I believe she was at the players’ hotel a few hours before the magical 5-1 (and Van Persie's historic goal) on Friday. It has to do with Louis Van Gaal's ’total person' principle. If you feel good as a person, you perform better. Loosely translated; sex before the match is allowed.

My advice, give it your all, Bouchra. As for your outfits, your stunning hair, and yes, enjoy yourself in that hotel room. Bouchra as a trophy in the stands and Robin as the best player of the World Cup. Already now.
