thank god italy is not in the group of death like last time, italy can qualify with spain in quater finals, netherland, germany, portugal and denmark = group of death. i guess netherlands and germany would most likely qualify. why did they put poland, grecce, russia and czech republic in one group.

Glad England avoided the group of death. Poor Ireland, getting grouped with Spain but they could take points from Italy and Croatia. Group A is the easiest group of them all and group B is the hardest one. It'll be exciting to see some of the games from that group in particular.
that was last year, i am sure this time it wont happen, plus england group is not so easy, ukraine and france can take points from them. i doubt england would reach the final, italy has more chances than england from reaching the finals. 1st group i predict that greece and russia would qualify. group b would be tough, but i think germany and netherland would qualify, group c would most likely be spain and italy. group d would most likely be england and france. i would not be suprised if it would be ukraine instead of france though
You think Ukraine can draw/beat England, a team who still rely a fair bit on Shevchenko, but dont consider Ireland a threat to Italy... a team who have conceded only 2 goals in their last 11 games, and nearly, and should have beat Italy away in the WC 2008 qualifiers?
Keep up the confidence, I wouldnt be suprised if Italy choked in our group.
England not in Group B = Win. Portugal got the short end of the stick there though. Germany & Holland along with Spain are the best 3 International teams in the World right now So I could easily see them in third place.
hard group but this time we can beat spain and win the group, group A is a joke! c'mon this was all planned so poland can go through and england were lucky as always to draw ukraine(average team),france(nothing special) and sweden(ok team)
The favourites don't all go through, it never works like that. France and England have about an easy group as they could have wished for, Spain and Germany are a cut above the rest, so that leaves Italy and Holland, both with really tough groups. I'd go with those 2 to be knocked out.
I remember when we played France in Euro 2004, we took the lead, Beckham missed a penalty, then Zidane scored a free-kick right at the end, then I think it was Gerrard with the most woeful back pass resulted in a last minute Zidane penalty and France win. Though that was a much stronger French team.
i know that not always the favourite go through. i just say that italy has more chance than ireland to go through. holland would also most likely get through, they have more chance than portugal or denmark
Well yes you're right obviously that they look stronger teams on paper, but in the tournament, anything can happen and it's unlikely the 8 favourites (Russia/Greece, Holland/Germany, Spain/Italy, France/England) will all qualify.
damn if Italy meets England in the quaters my country would explode we would have a war during the match we have been waiting for this match from 1990 world cup when I wasn't still born
No he's saying people in Malta support follow either England or Italy and consequently dislike the other. I don't hate any nations, though there's nothing better than beating Germany or Argentina.
