Good to see, Holland were excellent, but Italy I don't think were as bad as the scoreline suggests...I'd still back them to qualify with Holland from that group. France look impotent, with that lazy big shite Anelka up front.

I just don't think they're quite so good on paper at the back, esp as I said with Jens. I'm unsure of other keepers, I Know timo is pretty good (and not totally incompetent) and i've heard of some guy called Neuer? I dunno if he's any good, just someone mentioned him to me once, think he's with Schalke or something.
Well, if you don't rate Germany just because of the keeper, you might as well say the same about Portugal, Ricardo was so shit this season he got relegated to Betis' bench.
And I've heard of fucking Neuer.

I think croatia will be fine, having said that, add in Eduardo's finishing to Krancjar, Modric & company and you'd have one hell of a team. Also playing the hosts isn't always easy
We're talking about the shittiest host team in the last 20 years.

lol he does look pretty good And it's based not only on Lehmann, but also on the fact Metzelder has been injured a lot this year & as such probably isn't match fit

this should be a great tournament cos neither the italians or the french should do well. Italy are over the hill & have no fresh blood, france are only just bringing it in, but need rid of makelele, abidal etc before they'll get anything good from it.
This year I fancy Spain, Portugal, Croatia & Holland as the top 4 teams, with the germans just behind, but with Lehmann in goals, there'll be a fuck up or three.
I 2nd that. France will probably reach the finals against Germany (in my opinion). Italy needs big changes in order to make it through the '1st half' (Evidence that the team needs Maldini more than ever)

yeah, plus passion counts for nothing, in the fantasy footy league, our passionate SD Mod, Verndogs, is next to last
