There's always a group of death in all tournaments, never the less some cracking games.

Nasty group there. Germany are probably a given going from recent form (inb4 someone mentions CL final) and you'd have to expect Holland to join them but you got to fancy Portugal.
Don't know much about Denmark except the fact that they are Danish.

This is a horrible group, lack of strikers makes me think portugal will be the ones to miss out.
I'm really looking forward to the Euro's. I'm not expecting anything special from England but I think in the last 8 years the gap between a lot of the European countries has shrunk significantly. It should make for a great tournament with a lot of close games.

Is this the thread Rotty thought you were talking about the Olympics?

I saw the original undeleted posts earlier to day...Rotty trying to cover his tracks
Reckon Germany and Holland will qualify, dont think Portugal will do much, i know they have Ronaldo but hes hardly a one man team...plus he was utter rubbish in the WC a few yrs back.
But saying could always be surprises, Germany lost to Swiss the other week but i wouldnt pay too much attention to that...they always do well in theses tourneys.

Portugal have a pretty solid team. I could see them pipping the Dutch to go through.
I also saw Rotty's earlier posts. You cannot hide!
From what I have seen of Portugal, they are incredibly reliant on Ronaldo and Nani, if you block off the wings then Portugal lose their edge.
Is there any point in the Danish players even turning up? Germany and Holland are two of the best three teams in Europe and Portugal aren't exactly a minor footballing nation either..

Maybe it's time for Bendtner to show how world class he reminds us all he is.

Go Germany!
Portugal will be the team to lose out. Ronaldo can't save them.

You would expect the Netherlands and Germany to come first and second with Portugal doing so poorly in friendlies, their defence was a shambles in the last match. Can't see Denmark having much chance, 0 pointer possibly. If only Ronaldo could play as well for his country as he does for Real, then Portugal might have a chance.

Some mouthwatering games today, looking forward to seeing the Dutch play...hopefully RVP to bag a hattrick and doesnt get injured :/...should be a win for the Dutch i expect.
The Germany and Portugal game should be an easy win for the Germans, other than Ronaldo i cant see Portugal getting anything from this game....they struggled to make the Euros as it was.

Ahh Saturday with nothing to do (until a wedding tonight), except to watch 2 glorious matches (hopefully)
Hopefully the Germany/Portugal game should be a bit lively!!
Holland to start the tournament off strong!
