Lets hope disgusting pepe can keep his composure for once. What a piece of shit footballer that is... Surprised he isn't banned yet from football all together.

Still hard to go against Spain.

It's either Spain or Germany for sure.

Germany or Spain but who knows... Euro is harder than WC, every game is hard, every team is hard. If Greece has won, everyone can win it.

Big problem for Spain is tired/injured players.

"Come on England" would usually be my response... but I'm feeling warmer to Germany this year. Still secretly hoping for some England miracle, but I'm backing Germany.

Spain avatar incoming.

I saved these ones from the WC, if anybody feels like changing his avatar.

A few little predictions...

  • Germany to win
  • Spain to be boring and/or disappointing
  • England to exceed expectations (which are relatively low)
  • Croatia to be the surprise of the tournament
  • Italy to fail spectacularly
  • Ronaldo to actually have a good tournament
  • The Sun to make idiots of themselves

You mean for this?
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DhYU_znLSRk

p.s. hidden camera caught Barcelona players training how to fake injuries and then shows how they use same moves in games vs Real.

¡¡Hala Madrid!!
I'm always amazed at how often I read a painfully stupid post and then notice that the poster already has a demeaning tag.

Note: that training video is from a commercial. It's a joke. And Real dives just as much, if not more. For a Real fan to put together that video (and another to post it) is pretty ridiculous.

lol... did he also make up cut scenes from the actual games showing how they fake it?

There ya go, put a tenner on Germany and a fiver on England to win outright. Neither are great bets - terrible betting odds for Germany!

That part is from an Italian TV ad.
The first part is an ad for The Guardian for EURO 2004.

It's irresistibly good.

I think so. Is Jelavić in the Croatian squad, I assume so?

Lot of unfancied teams have some great players. a shame it's such a tough group but I expect Eriksen to do well for Denmark

Should probably not trust the 7-11 security cameras quite so much
As a proud Englishman, I will be rooting for the Dutch/Croatians.

Naturally I assume that a team with a spine of Bent/Gerrard/Terry will fail miserably at the earliest possible stage.

Just realised there is a chance of Ireland and England facing each other in the quarter final if the pair finish first and second in their respective groups. That's going to be fun...

Between supporting Modric and VdV there is little room left for England.

I am thankfull that Game 1 and Game 3 for Group B happen on a Saturday and on a Sunday

I am happy that Portugal is in the Group of Death, it will make it more intense, joyful or crushing depending on the outcome

I don't have big expectations but a win vs Germany or Netherlands will be +++ for me.

Who was it that organized the flags last time? Was it EatChildren? I seem to think it was him.
Eat Children wasnt a mod at that time. Unless he's the one who suggested it, you mean. I want to say it was Hitokage or Teknopathetic who added the flags but not sure. I tried searching for the world cup thread and I can't find it. I think i remember it got deleted because it was so damn big and made GAF slow to a crawl and what caused mega threads to be made no more on GAF.

Maybe someone can PM one of them and ask to do it again. :/

Pretty depressing when I look at the Czech Rep. and think back to 2004 when they still had one of the best teams in the tournament. Stupid 1-0 Greece ;_;
