Just to make the english people angry 
.
Not that I think that the german team will get very far. I'm a supporter of Denmark's team anyway. But they are not in. So I'll hold thumbs for Sweden.
And anyone may get the title but Italy and the Netherlands (sorry to whom this may concern ).
Just done predictions for a work sweep.
Italy to beat Germany 2-1 in the final.
Or should I change it to 6-0, just for you Bere?!

Do as you want. I have no high opinion of the german team, like I said. But Italy?
:dead:
Germany will be out after Quarter Final. Czech Rep or Portugal will do it.
I do not see Czech Republic this year. No Rozicky, no Nedved... Still they have Cech but what can do a goalkeeper?... The team was very old for the world cup, so I guess they need one or two competitions to have another good team.
And Italy... Do not talk to me about this team anymore!!!

I guess France has an age Problem, too. Or did they get some young folks in?

Our président said "work more to earn more". The football players show the exemple to follow...
On attack, they are younger, defence is old. And the goalkeeper is a twat.

Don't care about the Germans. No doubt that you 'cheeseheads' get farther. What our team needs are several years of reconstruction. What is the use of a national team when every player in it, is benched at Bavaria Munich? If anyone has fulfilled his contract they buy him before anothen team does. And so they (almost) all rot on Munichs bench. Especially the so called 'goal getter'. And who the f*** is Ballack anyway?

For one time only, I will be supporting the orange cunts because I hate the Italians even more 
Let's just hope the Bubbles and their "anti-football" don't prevail this time. Looking forward to seeing if the Germany that entertained us two years ago are still playing the same sort of stuff, and hope that Spain for once can be consistent. Italy to nick it for me.
It's gonna be great to watch a tournament for once without crapping it every time the oppo cross halfway against us!!!
Had to agree entirely with Brian Reade in The Daily Mirror this week
England's Euro 2008 failure spares us final indignities5/06/2008
Every journalist has written stories they wished had seen the bin instead of the light of day.
One of the many I've penned came during Euro '96 hysteria. England were playing Spain and I was told to ask Andrew Sachs if he would dress up as Manuel from Fawlty Towers, make a cackhanded attempt to save penalties and give thick responses to jibes about Barcelona.
The actor told me to break a leg (or words to that effect). Which was fair enough. So we hired a Manuel lookalike who lay gozzy-eyed by a goalpost screaming about Meester Fawlty stringing him up by the boleros if Spain win. It narrowly missed out on the Orwell Prize for outstanding journalism.
This happens whenever England make it to a major tournament. It's the only story of the summer, with the media reflecting a people who become willing members of a pitiful freak show.
So for those lamenting England's absence from the latest Greatest Show On Earth, look on the bright side. Think of all the pain you've been spared.
No Beckingham Palace farewell party where WAGs jostle to get their borrowed frocks and satsuma tans in Hello!
No hordes of man-pleasing females who usually loathe the game, dressed in replica shirts feigning undying love for "footer" and Frank Lampard's thighs. No workplace creeps pretending they love footer to please their boss.
No celebrities leaping on the passing bandwagon or sights of Wills and Harry in the best seats at the quarter-finals with their piles of chinless rugger chums.
No dirgeful Euro 2008 single, Rio Ferdinand telling his mates "you've been merked" on ITV or excruciating adverts for soft drinks and soap powder, where players look as comfortable as armed robbers caught on CCTV.
No rows about whether Stevie can play with Frankie, whether Owen is finished, Rooney is fit, or why our players possess the same technical ability as the Galapagos Islands yet are near-billionaires who've been promised a fleet of Baby Bentleys to lift the trophy.
No hordes of drunken racist oiks swaying on street cafe tables giving Hitler salutes and telling passing Austrians: "If it wasn't for the English you'd be Krauts (puke)." Then having pitched battles with riot police who "acted like Nazi stormtroopers".
No Skinner and Baddiel coining it in for 42 Years of Hurt or talk of a Golden Generation about to deliver.
No legless WAGs worsening our debt crisis by spending millions on Swiss handbags.
No inevitable penalty shoot-out agony at the hands of Germans, followed by BMW-torching riots from Berwick to Barnstaple.
And when it all goes tits-up, no burning of Steve McClaren effigies (to be fair that would have been a bonus), no tears from Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes as they console a weeping Becks, no free posters bearing the face of the latest foreign scapegoat on a dartboard, and no books full of banalities from banalities like Ashley Cole.
None of that. Just a chance to sit back and enjoy some decent football in a sane climate, revelling in the skill of the players and the inevitable pain of the fans of all but one of the teams.
But revelling mostly in the smug knowledge that for once, the English won't disgrace themselves abroad this summer.
Well, until the Rooney wedding at least.

Sorry but Germany is far from that. Our coach is a milksop (had to look that word up in a dic. So I hope it's correct ).
The defense is disastrous these days. And Lehmannn showed nerves in the last games. They can be happy if they survive the first round.
