The top teams could've had a bit more spreading (I'm looking at you group a) Well, it's gonna be hard for Germany, but if you want to claim the championship, you have to beat any top team at some point, so it might aswell be in the groupstage =)

But the interesting question I'm asking myself now is: will this event pass by without a newspaper outside of Germany (especially the english ones) compare our national team to Hitlers Panzer Legions rolling over Poland and France...


No.. other european countries are usually insensitive dicks about that

Ouch ouch ouch for Denmark, the group of death O.O I'm so afraid, beating Holland and Germany will be very very very hard! We can take Portugal i'm sure as we did in the qualifiers but you never know. Hell it will be some kick ass games to watch and we have to do out best to pass from the groups. Very much looking forward

Personally i'm hoping for this

1:Denmark
2:Germany
3:Holland
4: Portugal

I like it. Will be quite difficult to survive the group stage already but they'll be forced to play good straight from the get go.

Portugal has at least 5 world class players who can play in any team in the world: Coentrão, Moutinho, Ronaldo, Nani, Pepe. Then the second tier group isn't that bad. We do still have the eternal problem of not having a striker.

1. Portugal
2. Germany
3. Netherlands
4. Denmark

Oh, god, we got France and England. Should be doable, though. Really looking forward to the tournament.

Oh, and Group A is hilarious.

Just looking at the names you're absolutly right, but somehow they didn't play as well as in their clubs when they played with the national team in the past. There is a reason why they had to play the qualifiers for the last two big events and if they don't pick up their game, it don't see them advancing. Mind you, they only finished second behind Denmark in their group. Because of the great players they do have they are of course capable of doing so and if they do, they will be a scary team to play.
Btw another example of a national team with great individualists that somehow play way worse than at the clubs is Argentina. They have Messi and all those other great players, but still they don't really perform well.

Portugal just needs to center the team around Ronaldo, if we have one of the best players ever why not use him like one. Let him carry us through the Euro.

Bendter never lost versus Portugal, and I think he allways scores atleast 1 in every game versus them, so they aint winning this time as long as bendter is playing Just hoping he doesn't do something stupid and just shuts up and plays -_-

Remember, last 2 qualifiers Denmark won above Portugal...
Yeah

I hope Ukraine will at least defeat Sweden and/or France. Not much hope for beating England. In fact, there is no hope for beating England. I'm glad that finals are in Kiev though

While players like CR can make the difference the most important things for a team are teamplay, spirit, discipline and tactical play. Without those traits the best players won't be of much use.

I don't think this Euro will be nice to Portugal.
They've struggled against Germany before, and this will be the best German team they have seen yet.
Denmark beat Portugal in the most recent meeting, and Netherland is a tough team to beat for anyone.
But if Portugal scores first and the Dutch decides to have a card festival like they did against Portugal in 2006 and against Spain in 2010, maybe Portugal will go through
