    I think Belgium will take the Euros next year.
    I hope so too, with Hazard scoring the decisive goal in the injury time.

    • Zlatan back at the Euros, who fancies him for goal of the tournament 4 times in a row?

        They are the 'New' England.

        None of those guys are mentally strong apart from Vincent Kompany.

        The rest are a bit fragile and cowardly aside from the Spurs centre half not Vertonghan the other one and Fellaini who basically isn't very good.

        Hazard, KDB, and Lukaku are not showing up when it matters.

        • Belgium remind me of an even crapper version of the original galacticos whenever I watch them. No cohesion in that team at all.

          France/Spain/Germany the 3 obvious standouts for the summer. I don't think any of them are necessarily great sides though, nowhere near the Spain side that demolished the last 2 Euros.

          I agree with Sparked, could see an unlikely winner. Italy are specialists, maybe they'll snide it.

          Some absolute ****e has qualified though, we might even get past the quarters for a change!

          • Ukraine FINALLY break the play off curse we have had for 17 years, what a relief...

            For the 98 World Cup we lost to Croatia - they went on to almost win the whole tournament (3rd place)

            Euro 2000 a terrible goalie howler led to a loss v Slovenia for a 'golden generation' squad with prime Shevchenko

            2002 World Cup lost to Germany who went on to reach the final

            2010 World Cup lost to Greece...real low point...

            2014 World Cup blew a 2-0 lead to go out v France 3-2...

            Now 15 years on revenge against Slovenia...

            This feels goooooooooood.

            • England might get to the semi. If they can win a shootout. Which we know we can't.

                  To be fair I don't get where the KDB thing comes from. He's already won us a crucial CL in the last minute. Scored the winner in the German cup final last year didn't he.

                  England had some bad luck with that 'Golden Generation' too. Disallowed goals in '98 and '04 spring to mind. Added to the fact that we are bobbins at pens.

                    Yeah man I mean we played really badly for a lot of the match, very sloppy and were lucky to get that equaliser...I was worried we would psychologically blow it and crumble again but those Slovenia players...damn, their scorer should have been sent off after 7 seconds...so many intentional fouls and aggressive behaviour.

                    But glad our boys managed to keep it together and finally fulfil their potential. Who knows? Maybe we will get some revenge on France in their own backyard - not only for the 2013 play off but in our 2012 Euro group as well.

                    Slava Ukraini!

                      Gonna stick my neck out and say KDB is a complete wimp.

                      Swallowed it big time at Chelsea. Had a great start at City but when the chips are down he will be too.
