Euro 2008 Discussion/Results Thread

I think holland and czech (utter garbage) will perform miserably at the tournament...the czechs are highly ranked for their successful years in 04-05 where they went a bunch of games undefeated..but they lack substance everywhere (besides the GK and several defenders...rosicky is out of euro!!)...i think turkey is more threatening than they are
Greece for Euro Cup

They have Benzema now, they don't need Zidane anymore.

they always had stars but their progress in every tournament was all zidane every time. i dont think i need to remind you guys what happened in WC 2002 when zidane was absent.

Cristiano Ronaldo will captain his country at this summer's European Championship

The Manchester United winger succeeds legendary Portuguese superstar Luis Figo in the role.

Ronaldo has also inherited the former Barcelona and Real Madrid playmaker's shirt as Luiz Felipe Scolari announced on Tuesday that the Red Devils ace will be handed the No. 7 jersey in Austria and Switzerland.

The decision to hand the responsibility to Ronaldo will have come as a disappointment to Nuno Gomes, Petit, Simao and Ricardo Carvalho, who have all skippered the side in the past.

Portugal are currently in training ahead of Euro 2008, but their new captain and Chelsea defender Carvalho are yet to join their team-mates as they get set for the UEFA Champions League final on Wednesday.

Scolari's side finished runners-up at the tournament four years ago and are expected to mount a serious challenge for the title once again.

They have been drawn in Group A alongside Turkey, Czech Republic and hosts Switzerland.

trezeguet - not even in squad
cisse - not the same as he was when he just came to liverpool, the broken leg/whatever he broke made his situatuation worse too, not "world class" atm
henry - has had a bad season with barca
malouda - half-way flopped at chelsea
Ben Harfa - has talent, but not really world class..

that only leaves Ribery..

[EKBATAN]

italy will take it all

end of story!
