Germany for me blue
They've been brilliant the last few tournaments and have fell just short...
Can't see them going too far. Portugal maybe, but they will have to find a level of consistency.
The Czech's are rubbish. It's depressing they made it and we miss out again.
I was impressed with the way England were able to dig in and beat Spain, not easy on the eye but let's be honest they're never going to beat them playing open football. Think England now realise they're not as good as they thought they were, it might work in their advantage if they can change their style against the better sides.

spains result last night really cancels out englands win on saturday
Totally GF, think spain have had a few off days!
they were 2 down after 83 minutes to Costa Rica
They could have an off day in the Euros as well
They had one in the world cup, didn't they? Poland 1-0
Germany will win it, mark my words
germany were brilliant last night
Ozils goal was a belter
I think spain have an awful record in friendlies recently, they got beat 4-1 by portugal earlier in the year, and they are supposed to be their big rivals, so I wouldnt put to much emphises on either the England or costa Rica results. Agree with GF though, Germany look very impressive.
Aye Spain's friendly record is shocking. They blatantly do not try in these. They have lost to Costa Rica, England, Portugal and Argentina in recent ones yet won every game in our group.
Spain will still be the team to beat for me. Their results may not look comprehensive when you compare them to Germany's but when you factor in possession stats, the number of shots the opposition had, corners etc then you can see they dominate games.
They had 70% of the possession at Wembley and had Fabregas been on the money they would have scored. In a competitive game Reina would not have come on and messed up for the English goal either.
Once the tournament starts I cannot see past them.
Spains competitive record is amazing...wont read into a friendly defeat too much....sadly I think our neighbours doon sooth will be talking about it from now until they get papped oot next summer
