    Obviously I want to see Italy win it but tbh I think France will be the team to beat.

    In their own country, genuine young quality players throughout the team...

    First match in paris to final in Paris. Everything happens in Paris. Sick of Paris! Lyon was however the first capital of France.

    Thought Ireland were gonna get Hungary instead of Sweden and Austria instead of Italy. I'm sure most were wanting those alternatives at the time so that, with Belgium, is one hard group..

    Northern Ireland are * :56:

    England is so so, expect them to get out of that. Russia are no great shakes at all..

    I'd love England to go out in the groups that arrogant tweet from Gary Linekar sums them up

    They never learn. You can guarantee the usual laughable tournament exits every 2 year..

    I think Belgium is an ok Pot 1 draw. Anytime I have watched them they seem to struggle to break down teams like ourselves that are more defensive and compact. Italy are also a shadow of some of their better teams over the years. Sweden will be an interesting one seeing as we haven't done particularly well against teams around the same level as us excluding the play off.

    Think a win against Sweden and then a point from one of the other two games would be enough and is achievable.

    You can probably count 3 guy's out of that with the "constant" injuries they have..

    Sturridge
    Chamberlain
    Wilshere..

    Those side's really still aren't up to much when you match it with the knockout stage side's next year..

    Decent draw for Ireland. All of the teams are difficult but beatable. I think Sweden will be the toughest for us. We could finish 2nd, 3rd or 4th in that group

    I like the fact there isn't likely to be too many dead rubbers in the Group Stages. Teams can lose their first two games and still have a chance of qualifying if they win their last game, should be an exciting one.
