Euro 2008

Only 3 more weeks until the tournament starts. My money is on Germany or Italy to win the cup. Dutch have good players on paper but it is always on paper for them.

Discuss.


Group A:
Switzerland
Czech Republic
Portugal
Turkey

Group B:
Austria
Croatia
Germany
Poland

Group C:
Holland
Italy
Romania
France

Group D:
Greece
Sweden
Spain
Russia

I'm gonna say Spain. I know they have a habit of choking, but I really think they can win it.

Spain, famously a losing team. Hopefully we don't have a repeat of Greece winning, I would really want Holland to win this time but I really don't know who to vote as potential winners, its very tight. Even the bottem 8 who won't qualify are all very tough.. I love this comp.

The Dutch and Spanish usually have the same problems.

The Dutch squads were famous for their infighting between the black and white players. They're in a pretty tough group with the Italians and the French and their squad is pretty young and inexperienced so I'm not too sure about their chances of even getting out of the group tbh.

The problem with Spain is due to geography. The Catalans hate the Madridistas, you have the softarses from Andalusia, the Basques hate everyone and the manager is a racist prick. They're also the biggest chokers in world football but I'll be supporting em due to the amount of Liverpool players in the team.

If I were a betting man I'd go with Italy or the Germans.

Germany, they really impressed me last WC and have a bunch of younger players that are better now.

I'm going to say Spain for their group if they conquer the lack of gel'n atmosphere on the team. I would love to see a Spain vs Germany game, but I don't think that's going to happen.

I feel sorry for the teams in Group C. =(

Go France?

Why do we always get to play against Italy? Why? Karma is a bitch. And then Holland and Romania. Damn.

All the other groups have 1 obvious winner.
