    Fancy Iceland to get few points they are not bad side.

    To win it I think England will take some beating.

    Germany not in it?
    Their under-somethings were unbelievably good the last time I saw them play. Spain were class too.

    Just see Spain are 15/8 and England 4/1 with PP so your right Spain must have excellent chance, not seen Spain but what seen of England have been impressed although team change with squad etc so not taken that into account.

    Ya surprised not see Germany there

    Can anyone actually make informed contributions to this thread yet? I know I don't know the first thing about 6 of the teams in it and I'd only vaguely know some of Spanish. I have heard that Iceland have a decent team and have got decent results, but don't know much more than that.

    Watching the U-21s, U-19s etc is as close to what older fans would have experienced at World Cups. You don't who the stand out players from the other teams will be.

    England have no Wilshere or Carrol afaik!I think Czech Rep might have a good run at it if they get out of there group ahead of Spain or English.They trashed Greece 5-0 on aggregate to qualify.

    Have to fancy Spain. Players like De Gea, Azpilicueta, Montoya, San Jose, Mata, Javi Martinez, Diego Capel, Thiago, Bojan, Muniain and Jeffren I think they will have too much for everyone else. England have a good team but is a level below this Spain side, De Gea, Javi Martinez and Mata would make almost any international team in the world.

    For England I do like Smalling, Jones, Rodwell, Sturridge and Wickham.
