Spain dominate Team of the Tournament

The UEFA Technical Team has named its UEFA EURO 2008� Team of the Tournament, with no fewer than nine Spanish players being picked in the final 23.

I think both were pretty pretty fitting, especially the Team of the Year, because they usually throw in players with big names who don't merit it, but I thought all of them were deserving of their awards. Thoughts?

To be fair, I think Xavi had a much better team around him. Ronaldo will be back to stealing headlines soon enough.

I would of given it to puyol or to sergio ramos.

Sergio Ramos? it's a joke? he played really bad first matches. Also he played very well against Russia and Germany. Better for Marchena or Senna in my opinion.

Congratulations to Xavi. I love " los bajitos" like Xavi, Iniesta or Cesc.
