Go Germany
Re: Euro 2012
One of the BBC pundits tipped Germany, Portugal & Netherlands to make the semi-finals. The last 3 are in the same group
Anyway, no-one in England expects anything from this team.

Re: Euro 2012
I like both Germany and Netherlands so it will be kind of hard for me on June 13th... if they'll both make it to the final I'm dead!

Re: Euro 2012

I also hope Poland performing well on their home turf, would be nice seeing them at least in the quarter finals
Re: Euro 2012
France is a good team this year, one of the best contenders for the cup.
If they get it together, they could be tough to beat.

Re: Euro 2012
Apparently England don't fear France

Well, it's a two way mindset then!
France's problem might be in attack; only one designated out-and-out striker in Benzema. It will be tough for them but I think they can do it.

Re: Euro 2012
Olivier Giroud is a great Striker, he scored 21 goals this season (9 assists) and was impressive in the friendly against Germany, where he scored his first international goal. He is better than Andy Carroll...
I can't see England winning this game.

Re: Euro 2012
I think it'll be a really drab game where France sneak a 1-0 win. Maybe even 0-0. Roy Hodgson is entering the tournament with a very defensive mindset. We won our last two friendlies 1-0.
Re: Euro 2012
England is currently not in the position to win tournaments and that's why I think 4-4-2 dinosaur Roy Hodgson isn't the right man for the job. The FA missed the chance to make fundemental changes in their system and build a team for the future with new approaches.
The German Football Association didn't miss that opportunity after 2004. Signing Klinsmann, Löw & Bierhoff (later they added Sammer as technical director) was the bravest and best decision the DFB ever made. Everything improved since then and there is an incredble amount of young talanted players in the country. The new structure really pays off.

Re: Euro 2012
Yeah, England is about ten years behind the other major countries. By the time we catch up, there'll be another system...
I'm confident that we can do something, but we're lacking Barry, Cahill, Lampard, Wilshere and, for the first two games, Rooney. Big losses.

Re: Euro 2012
Most of the games will be on Aljazeerasport +9 and +10. I only have the first 8 channels.
I don't want to pay like $60 for few games
You guys get it for free in Europe, right?

Re: Euro 2012
Every game for free and in HD
Re: Euro 2012
In the UK, the rights are shared between BBC and ITV. Half each I believe; the last matches of each group game are on at the same time so it'll be BBC1/BBC3 & ITV1/ITV4 for those games.
So yes, if you call the BBC free
