    When watching games you usually find yourself cheering for a team. So I'm sure you'll find one. Take one you like watching play.

    I have the same thing. While watching a game I usually find myself chearing for a team without realising it, because I like them or something like that. At the world cup I found myself chearing for Chile for some reason!
    But this tournament I have a couple of favourites. I like Ireland, England and of course the Netherlands. But I don't think these teams are gonna make it. I still think Germany have the best team!
  2. oh oh, that is how everyone sees it - that the German team is a favorite for the title. The boys sure are, but there is an immense pressure on them. The media here in Germany as well as the fans expect them to win the title. It's not like "we hope they'll come far in the tournament", it's more like "how well will they present themselves on their way to the title".
    I really hope they can stand this pressure. It is huge.
  3. that being said... I just put the flags on my car as well as the big one on the flag pole -- you gotta be ready for the march to the title
  4. Sergio, this is for us
    there's no one like Damien Dempsey for sure
    go, Boys in Green, go!!

    Don't they look at Spain?.. I mean Spain are the defending champions and they're world champions. They defeated Germany on their way to both titles.
    Who builts up this pressure? Is it just press, or are the public and the former players in it aswell? I read something Berti Vogts said about the dutch team, he thinks Germany can easily beat us, because our defense lacks pace. Do people like Beckenbauer and Hoeness join in this pressure-building?

    That being said, Germany is my favourite aswell. Mostly because Spain is missing some important players (Puyol and Villa) and I still believe there's trouble between the Barca and the Real players.
    Still it won't be easy for Germany. I believe either France or Sweden will give them a hard time in the possible semi-final. And the groupstage is going to be tough, although Denmark and Portugal don't have the qualities the dutch team and Germany possess..
  6. I don't think we can write off the weaker teams from causing an upset because they actually have some strong players. Poland for example, I was surprised by how many I know and rate as players.

    In other news:
    Uefa has confirmed there were "isolated incidents of racist chanting" aimed at Netherlands players during an open training session.

    But the governing body has not revealed whether it is investigating the incident in Krakow, Poland.

    Dutch captain Mark van Bommel said monkey chants were aimed at team-mates.
  7. Anyway, today's the day Let's be positive about the next three weeks
  8. Russia doesn't surprise me, great team with unlimited energy. Nice first two games
  9. Just finished the game Argentina -Brazil.

    We won 4-3 and was an excellent match!

    Messi and ... what else I can say...
  10. Poland manager seems to think Lewandowski is on his way to Man Utd. Also seem to be lining up an offer for Dutch midfielder Kevin Strootman. We'll see.
