I'm so excited for this, much more so than for the Olympics.
I believe Germany, Spain and Holland is on a level above the other teams though, France was really underwhelming in the last World Cup, England got a new manager like yesterday and Italy, well they could do well I guess.
If I were to put any money on what teams we will see in the finals it would be a repeat of the last Euro cup, Spain-Germany.
Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.

This German team might be even better than the one that was sent out in 2010, only a second world class full back would be needed to make it complete. Too bad David Alaba is Austrian, I guess we need another "Anschluss" lol.

The development of the German national team over the last years was amazing, let's hope for even more new German talents in the future ^_^

I think it's funny how few people consider Italy a threat, they are a team that shines in big tournaments similar to Germany. Also France could suprise some people if the play as a team because they have great individual players.

The German squad definitely got stronger. Nearly every key player has improved and became more experienced. Especially Özil could become the star of this tourney. The midfield alone is scary as hell. I mean, if you can bring gems like Götze or Reus from the bench, then you know that you have quality there.

The defense will become the deciding factor. The lack of a really strong left defender could surely hurt the team. I fear, that Löw will have no choice, but to put Lahm on his weaker side and Boateng as right defender with Hummels/Badstuber building the center. If everyone stays healthy I can see this working out.

Nonetheless Germany has a bright future with the key figures still being fairly young and tons of strong talent coming. The strength of the ideology of the Bundesliga is really shining here.

Germany's midfield is beastly, Ozil will be a key for Germany success. If Gomez could do well(he tends to suck when it comes to big tourney) and Low finds a way to beef up the defense line Germany will be the favourite. Last time Germany won the EURO was in 1996 right? With Behoff, Klinsman, Summer?

I also have plan to add some more contents to the OP such as team squad, key players to watch out for, new talents that need our attention.

You mean like how they shined themselves to last place with 2 points in their very easy 2010 World Cup group lol.

SWEEEDEN woop woop. Shame we'll most likely die to England and France, but I think we have a good chance of getting to the quarters. Ibra will be so fucking important, as will Svensson. Hopefully Jonas Olsson will keep his shit together next to Mellberg. Will also be interesting to see if Guidetti gets any play time.

Early prediction: Germany takes it all.

That seems pretty accurate, though I think France may be stonger and make a surprise at the Euro. You can also switch Greece and Poland. Poland I think will surprise too. They have the homecrowd and Lewandowski, who is very very underrated for non german viewers.

I just hope that Dick Advokaat doesn't act up to his first name (lol) and so our team will be acting like a collective, not like 11 individuals that don't fucking understand each other. (edit: perhaps you heard the news that he's leaving after EURO no matter what is the result)

We've got "rich experience" of failing even easy groups (no world class team out of all four in this group, tbh). So I'm somewhat worried.

Out of all teams - gogo Spain for sure.

oh well of course Sweden and Ireland too! ^_^

I don't think that Özil is our key player. He is obviously a great player and will do well yadda yadda, but we have so much quality in our offensive midfield that we can do well without him, Götze or even Kroos can play his position on an extremely high level aswell.

Our defensive midfield will be key to our success considering our style, so 2 out of Schweinsteiger/Khedira/Kroos, depending on who actually plays. Schweinsteiger should be set in stone, he is our leader and when he is in shape (like before his ~6 month injury) our best player. Khedira will most likely start, but you can't dismiss Kroos as an option imo. He started quite often for our national team in 2011, he always delivered and is even a better player since then, he improved so much this season that I would not be too surprised to see Schweinsteiger and Kroos starting.

It seems like Löws system is runninger smoother and smoother since he took over after 2006. I think this time we can finally beat Spain. All those high finishes since 1996 (2nd place 2002 World Cup and 2008 Euro and 3rd place 2006 World Cup and 2010 World Cup) are just not satisfing enough
