Arjen Robben is convinced Holland
have the players to make a big impact at the World Cup.
The Dutch face Japan on Saturday on the back of a good
win against Denmark in their opening Group E match.
Bayern Munich winger Robben, building up his fitness
after a hamstring injury, told fifa.com: "The expectations
are high.
"You go to the World Cup to win the title but
you have to be realistic and know that it is very hard.
"There are a lot of big teams with a lot of quality.
But we have a very good group of players and can accomplish
something at this World Cup."
Robben is pleased to be working under coach Bert van
Marwijk, adding: "He has been very clear from the
beginning about what he wants from this group of players.
"He is a coach who can communicate in a very calm
manner. He keeps the peace in the team and those are
good characteristics."
