Euro 2004! - 03/08/04 03:50 AM
Euro 2004 is coming up! It's a shame that Turkey didn't make it so I guess I'm rooting for Italy. What are everyone's picks?
Unfortunately not Scotland, seeing as we completely crapped ourselves in the second game against Holland........
It will be won by one of the usual suspects. France are still incredibly hard to beat, Germany continue to perform at finals no matter how bad their squad is. Italy and Spain will no doubt have money placed on them before underachieving yet again!!
Home advantage could help Portugal out initially, but I cannot see them beating France/Spain or Italy.
I also think Portugal will be a hard team to beat, but I doubt they will get to the finals. I would like to see Holland to win, but for me the favorite is still France

Hey Svizzero, does Sforza still play for Switzerland? He was a class act. So is Yakin though, wish he came to Celtic
I think Italy have a very good chance, but winning it could very well depend on stopping one man- Thierry Henry
However, watch out for Simone Perrotta and Antonio Cassano for Italy, i reckon they will both shine
I'm supporting England obviously, but IF we go out, then I'd like France to do well because of Thierry Henry and all the other Arsenal boys in the French team.

What do you think....one team is thrilling and that are the Dutch. They qualify games weren't that good, but when the youth came in the game totally went to the good side (see the 6-0 victory on Scotland). The played aggresive and with balls. The mentality of the youth is different from the older ones. The youth still has to proove themselves that's why they play superb games. And with the older players like Van der Sar, Stam and Davids the team is perfectly balanced.
Watch it.

I also think Holland have a very good chance of winning it, with players like davids, seedorf,van der vaart,kliuivert,van nistlerooy, and robben they have a world class squad which has the potential to blow any other team away.
