Anyway back to the Euro's. Like I said its going to be a shame for me that England, and any of the other 'home' nations arent there (even scotland lol) but it should be a good tournament with alot of talent on display.

If i was to stick my neck out I would say that I will be supporting Portugal. I said earlier that after Germany my favourites would be Spain and Portugal, but Spain are the perennial under achievers and I think that this tournament will be same old same old. So im supporting Portugal

I'm an Espana fan!!
Not that I'm a Spanish but I love their playing style (powerful attack), and also footballer with good technics. (or should I say cute players? :lol: )
Unfortunately, Spain was so bad at international games. Compared to their strong performance in La Liga, it's naturally to think that Spain is supposed to win at least one star on their uniforms. I mean,how can you lost the game(2006 World Cup) when u got strikers like Villa, Raul , and Torres?
However, I believe that this year's squad is the best Spain squad.(It'd be more better if Raul were in.) With more and more Spanish footballers going out of country and getting more experiences, I believe they're now more powerful than before. Moreover, the coach Aragones has adopted a new strategy.Though everyone hates him (or just the Real Madrid fan?), we can still be patient and see wheteher he really deserved to stay with the squad since the early lost in 2006 World Cup. It's definitely a new breakthrough.
So, I'm looking forward to the result.

BTW, the game is not scheduled to play on TV here in Taiwan. So, with the coming University Entrance Exam and suck TV channels, my life will be miserable in June. Danka, if u can come back earlier, I will be happier.

So tomorrow it is kicking off. I have reserved a table in local pub with my friends and will watch there. :mrgreen:
Everyone thinks we are outsiders, which is great as history taught me our players never play well when they are considered favourites. With the exception of EURO 2004, where our team was just too good. 8-)
I think France won't advance from the group of death.

Despite England not being there Im looking forward to a summer not filled of tabloid optimism and stressful encounters. Very much looking forward to the tournament beginning, even though you would be forgiven in this country for not knowing that the tournament is starting tomorrow

I assume Polak will play, not sure about Vlcek. The line up won't be available till the start of the match.

They also played well at euro 2000 , but were unlucky with the draw (holland and france) and the referee vs holland. Koller that hit the bar in both matches , they could have gone far with a little bit more luck in that tournament

im not sure about the greek team this time, they are in a very tough group. On the other hand, i don't know most of the Greek players only the ones who play outside Greece like Gekas

im freelance lol , doesn't matter my nationality , but we are not at the championships

i have the feeling you think i critisized your country, i only said i don't believe in their chances.
No , im not swedish, but my nickname is based on Susanna yes

I don't agree with most talents either, cause Greece only had one good result in the history.
But again, i only said i don't think they will qualify.
