South Africa

I'll put us as slight underdogs to win the damn thing!

3. Who do think will win it?
Probably England

4. Who do you think are dark horses to go a long way?
See question 2

1. England

2. Quarters, although I think we'll face Portugal, so if Ronaldo gets injured make that semis.

3. Spain

4. Does Austria count? Think they could reach the Quarters if they get a favourable last 16 opponent.

The way people talk, Belgium have been awful with this generation for years and years. Truth is, we've never seen what they can do to really judge them

------

Would you still say the same thing if they don't manage to get out of the group stages?

----------------------------------------------------------------------

No because they'll have shown evidence of being rubbish if that happens. Until then I don't know why people don't rate them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

Maybe these people you talk of have already seen enough to not warrant rating them. Moreover, if Belgium don't live up to the high expectations during the EC then peoples thoughts or opinions will be even more justified. Gonna have to wait and see.
----------------------------------------------------------------------

That's my point though. Where have they seen Belgium enough to judge them either way?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Robb I see your point, but with the excellent talent that runs through that team it's not as if they've been blowing teams away since the last world cup and stamping their mark leading up to this tournament.

Belgium are a funny one imo... Lots of talent but hard to judge

They may have reached the quarters in brazil, but they were awful to watch... A real disappointment to a degree... Only the game v USA was actually good

1. England (Italian on mum's side)

2. England will go out to first decent side it meets. WIll then support Italy

3. Germany

4. England (I know, I know)

1. Where are you from? Wales
2. How do you reckon your nation will do? Will get through the group. I've done the predictor thing and Wales would play Austria if I am right so chance for quarters. If we can keep games tight, which we normally do, we can spring a surprise I think if Bale plays well.
3. Who do think will win it? France
4. Who do you think are dark horses to go a long way? Poland

Northern Ireland

We will have to play out our skins to pick up the four points to give ourselves a chance at getting out of the group. I'd say we need to beat Ukraine, which I fancy us to do and draw with Poland, which we're capable of. I don't think Poland are very good. Germany will likely thrash us.

Germany.

Austria. They had a great qualifying campaign and I think they'll surprise a few people.

1. England
2. No idea really. We ain't great but we win a lot of games. We generally get knocked out by the top sides in major competitions, so with a decent draw then QF's or even SF's isn't impossible. Then again, neither is going out early. I just have a funny feeling that we are going to do surprisingly well.

3. Always fancy Italy, they just get tournament football.

4. Iceland have a tidy side built on a decent U21's. I think this tournament will throw up quite a few surprises though.

1. England

2. Wales will win our group, and we will get knocked out in quarters.

3. Germany or France

4. Russia and Wales

I'm bricking that Germany game

Just hope they are already group winners by then and rest everyone

Wales
If we beat England I think we'll get out of the group. Still hopeful either way. Any more than that is probably asking a bit much, but if Bale's on form we might be the over achievers of the tournament
I think France, but I think England have a great chance, no one looks that great
Dark Horses? I think that's is

They finished 2nd to Wales in qualifying.

That's why I don't rate them.

Not saying England are better, I don't rate them either.
