Who you got?
These are my picks. 1. Spain 2. Germany 3. Holland 4. France Italy and England may have a shot, depends on how they do. Portugal may be somewhere in there too. I havent seen european nations that much so Im not sure who can be a surprise.

France has the talent to win, but they have a lot of work to do to regain my respect after their disastrous World Cup performance... it's a three horse race right now, in my eyes.

ENGLAND.
i will rout so hard for england, however i feel that they have to many problems to truly make noise in the tournament. With that said, I think either France or Netherlands will take the win. |

Because of their history, I will never count the Italians out, they are only behind Brazil as the second most successfull soccer nation.
With Ribery in great shape, Nasri and Benzema in the attack, France have real weapons, Mexes is a beast too. Portugal has the best player in the world so they may challenge. England are like Miami Heat, they just have a big mouth.

England has lost 3 players in the warm ups doubt they will challenge.

Pound by pound, Germany is stronger than Holland.

For me its a toss up between Netherlands, Spain and Germany.
England has to many problems, Portugal has to hard of a group. Italy is not good enough. When it comes to my beloved Sweden, I can only hope we do our best hopefully reach the quarters. |

I like Netherlands to win but who knows. I did a blind draft with some friends and I drew Ireland out of the hat. There goes my 10 bucks.

My top 4
1.Spain 2.Holland 3.Germany 4.Crotia I see France screwing up somewhere early in the tourney like they have done since they won the WC over Brazil. Czech and Italy are my longshots. If Denmark were in any other Group besides Group B with Spain, Holland, and Portugal then they would be on that list of longshots/darkhorses too but that group is freaking stacked

any cindirella?
The sleeper could def be Italy, I mean, they are Italy. Dark Horse should be Portugal. Cindirella I will say Denmark or Ukraine. No much to say about Sweeden, Ibrahimovic and thats it. The only chance England has is to pull out a Chelsea run and play with 10 defenders. I have many English friends on facebook, none of them seem excited about the Euro, they know they suck ![]()

Did yall see sportscenter today? Whatever the American guy's name is that covers most soccer for ESPN said England was his cinderella. How the heck can you pick them as a cinderella haha.
But I'm going for Spain.

All they are good at is running their mouth, watching England getting embarrased is like watching Lebron James, they havent even started playing when they are talking about winning 5 or 6 rings ![]() In sports, you win first, then you talk, if English people were more humble about "football" people wouldnt make fun of them as much as they do. I personally rather see Germany winning over England, the English do get so pissed when their national team doesnt do good, is great to make fun of them bc they do beliave they are great, only in their fantasies, they have some of the most overrated players in the history of the game ![]()

- group is fairly easy - if they manage to win the group they probably get Italy in the quarters. Once in the semis anything could happen. I do not belive that England will win, but they are not a bad cinderella story. |
