Here we are my friends.
The Euro 2008 starts this Thursday and we will begin to find out who rules football in Europe.
Italy are the World Cup title holders, Greece won the last edition of the tournament, France and Spain are bringing lots of new talents, Portugal is counting on Champions League Champions Cristiano Ronaldo and Nani, Germany is always one of the main favourites, Holland is always a dangerous mystery, and then we got Romania, Russia, Czech Republic, Turkey and Croatia who might be more surprising than people give them credit for.
I personally still believe France is the team to bet on, followed by Germany, Spain and Italy.
So get warmed up because this Euro will be incredible....

I truly think France has the best midfield and offense including their bench players. But I've been talking to some mates and we all agree that Germany is a very solid and strong candidate for the title. As for a dark horse I believe that Romania can surprise some people.

Over here in Zurich the Fan Fest area is looking good. Should be a lot of fun!
Might not be so nuts. If scotland can beat france, we can too. ;)

So you think France has it? I hate say it, but I think the "home field" advantage for the Germans is going to be too much. I pray for Spain, but Das Germans look mechanical and efficient, as usual.
What about a dark horse? No one expected Greece to take it home in '04. I think Croatia has the best chance.
Cheers for the blog!
