Sports, I see there is an Italian who disagrees with you in general section. I think the best way to resolve this conflict is if the two meet in the quarters (Italy 2nd and France 1st). The bad news tho is the winner will have to play us in semis.

Thumbs up

I hate the fact that Villa will probably be remembered as a bigger Spanish legend than Raul.

Iniesta and Silva behind a prime Raul and morientes would be absolutely exquisite.

I'm just messing with him. He's a known troll. In these competitions, you just have to get out of the pool play and then get a good draw. Playing our first game on June 11 really helps. We have an extra week to prepare. Also, FFF president is trying to schedule Ligue 1 to finish a week earlier. Other than our guys being in CL finals, we would have a full month almost to prepare. Means 3 friendlies. Very important.

Ok see you in semi.

I still think it will be a toss-up between France, England, Italy and Sweden for that semi final slot.

Other side, I'll be putting money on Germany - Netherlands.

I'll give you my non-biased opinion of France: I have no idea how we'll do. Other than Abidal and Ribery, there isn't a player in the starting 11 that has had success with the France NT. Most of the players have only played regularly in the last year. The quality is there... but i have major doubts about cohesion. I actually think we will be a much better contender for WC 2014. Hoping we do well enough in the Euro so that we can use it as a launching pad. We don't have even close to the quality of the Platini and Zidane years, although it's not bad.

yeah as you said, quality is here, but something is missing in France play.
I don't know if it's a tactical issue, a cohesion one or a hang up when it comes to play with France tee shirt.
If we take them player by player, honestly France have one of the best squad in this Euro but i do not trust them. They can get out of the pool play but going further will be really tough.

the same goes for England. Crapello (England version) tactics haven't worked yet.

Group of death isn't deadly to me as long as piggy, Ozil and Godmez are fit to play eco smile

Spain, Italy, Croatia and R. of Ireland is a very tough group on the other hand eco smile
Ireland can defend like crazy, Italy can beat Spain and Croatia could beat Spain or Italy eco smile

I actually expect spain to get eliminated in the group stages. Ireland shud be able to pull off an upset and I fully expect the italians beat spain again.

Wow, there is your vast experience showing again. Let's mark this and look back next July to see how good your prediction is.

They are all good teams that make it in Euros, except maybe hosts. But as to say top touch, there are only 3 in this year's Euro. Spain, Germany and Netherlands.

Its obvious who are the main contenders, but I wouldnt write off everyone except those three bill. Italy is capable of beating Spain, Portugal of beating Germany/Netherlands, etc.

actually my prediction depends on VDB sticking with villa for starting striker. if Llorente or Soldado (if he keeps form until then) is the starter come the euros, spain wont be eliminated so early.
