    hmmmm, havent really seen the form on many of the teams for the last year.
    i notice no-one mentioned italy or germany?
    but i do think england have a good shot at it and do spain. with 3 teams in the semis in the champions league, spanish football would look to be on a roll, however, it'll be different with mcmanaman on the opposite side this time!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,265 ✭✭✭MiCr0


    Spain


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,372 ✭✭✭Illkillya

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,316 ✭✭✭ButcherOfNog


    France or England, Spain will look good until they self destruct smile.gif

    After seeing Italy, Holland and France in action today.
    I'll have to go for France.

    They won the world cup with practically the same team, without dedicated strikers,
    Now they have 2, both hitting form.

    I'll have to go with Holland.

    But I think Spain will cause a few upsets. All the pundits have ignored them just as they did with France at World Cup '98.

    England have just lost to Portugal 3-2. They don't stand a chance. Either do Germany or Italy.

    Slovenia or Yugoslavia to get to the semi's, maybe they can produce a shock like Denmark did a few years ago and win it.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    Je pick le France. Par qou? Cos Germanys cr@p, Italy will c0ck up. Holland still have no team spirit. And England? HAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHA!

    Bloody shame the Irish didn't get through really. They wouldn't win it, but they deserve to be playing there more than some.

    It's turning into an interesting competition- I, for one, will definitely be watching tomorrows match between England and Germany with interest (and I normally wouldn't be bothered watching football at all apart from the Irish matches, most of which I *go* to).

    As to who will win it overall, I can't commit myself. Holland, Germany, Italy - the usual "forces to be reckoned with" haven't been as impressive as expected. Portugal are looking strong and dispatched the English nicely (but hey - that's *always* nice to see wink.gif ). England are 'ok' but won't do it in my estimation.

    My money, if I had any to put on it, would be on France, Spain, or possibly Portugal. If pressed, I'd go for France, but who knows, this time, eh? - I don't see a clear-cut definite top dog, this time, - that's part of what makes this competition that bit more interesting.

    i still think england will get through to the semi's, it was a massive tactical fukup v portugal.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 305 ✭✭Borric


    England for the quarter finals where they wil be beaten by italy

    they have talent in the squad but i don't think Keegan knows what he's doing.


    still italy for the winners

    France will go through to semi's and then beat Italy. Holland will go through to face Portugal and beat in peno's. Sadly the frogies will out class the Dutch and then Lebouf will never shut up about how great they are
