Euro 2004 Superthread

Who will win? Probally Italy, France, Germany and Holland, SPain, Czech Republic and England are undergods.

Golden boot? Probably Van Nistlerooy, Henry or Vieri

Player of the tournament? Likely, Zidane, Makelele, Nedved, Totti, Buffon

Young player of the tournament? Probably Raafal Van der Vaart

Please England get rid of David James and Emelie Heskey.

No "J" in Latvia, same way as there's none in the anglicised Jugoslavija.

Well I did say probably.

James, Barthez are some of the worst 'keepers I have seen. I kind of hope Buffon would get injured so Toldo would be the number one for Italy and I would Cudicini being called up to the squad.

Just wanted to celebrate their qualification by spelling the country name in the native language, that's all.

Counting down the days.

Come August or so I believe he qualifies for residency, and therefore the England team...
