Casillas, Arbeloa, Piqué, Ramos, Jordi Alba; Busquets, Xabi Alonso, Xavi, Iniesta, Silva y Cesc
No strikers
the starting line ups are as i expected to be honest
Really? You expected us to start with a right back in right mid and drop Nasri to the bench?
Or are you talking about the Spain line up?
spain line up ..
but i did expect blanc to bench nasri though
Did you expect him to bench Diarra too?
Just checking what other things you expected.
nah didnt expect that !
but nasri on the bench...yes, to be honest i thought he might do that
i'm psychic or psycho
i'd rather spain started with a striker...negredo or llorente though..not torres...
we'll see soon enough
Really excited about this game.
How many min combined have the two players played so far? Less than 10?
negredo played about 10min..llorente hasnt played a second yet
don't think it will start off fast kamran...think this match may be a slow burner
"I can be a man, or I can be Peter Pan."
----------------------------
Quote of the tournament!
I expect it to finish 1-1 in normal time, and then extra time, and then penalties.
The man who says - "why always me"
Mario Balotelli!
Zinedine's 17-year-old son, Enzo Zidane, is on the books at Real Madrid and has played for Spain at youth level. Wonder who he will be cheering on tonight?
Happy 40th Birthday to the legendary Zinedine Zidane!
Think Benzema will break his duck today.
Koscielny will score a late equaliser for France today. He'll head in from a corner.

March, I thought Malouda was decent in centre mid against England. Did his defensive job well.
================================
I've made up my mind - everything seems reasonable.
IMO what France need to when Benzema comes deep for the ball is some of their wingers/centre mids need to make runs in the box for Benz to play them in.
They were reluctant to do so vs. England as nobody seemed to make these runs bar Ribery in the very beginning (FRA got their first corner from that move) but this brought them both goals against Ukraine. Although Spain are undoubtedly a tougher opponent than Ukraine (stating the obvious), this could work again.
Kos wont get a game, France only play GOOD footballers.
