    The toughest group in the competition. Who'd be a Denmark fan :56:
    I think Germany and Holland will qualify from this group. Germany topping it.

    Germany and Holland will be some game(I hope)

    It looks like it will be a great EURO's as in this Group again, you wouldnt be suprised if there was a shock like Denmark beating Holland or Germany.

    Again I think Germany are favourites, for the whole tournament actually, but they have Portugal in game 1 and that could end up being a tough game with the firepower they have. Then they have the Dutch in the second, again a massive game.

    Holland have an advantage playing Denmark first, they always start tournaments well then self implode.

    easily the toughest group in the competition and if germany suffer an injury to one of their first choice CB mainly hummels I think their chance of winning the tournament are gone and possibly even qualifying from the group. think holland on the whole have the strongest squad in this group and should win it

    Surely if it's a shock it has to be a surprise? :icon_mrgreen: :56:

    Hope Germany get through in 2nd. Will be in Germany for the last group games until the first semi final. If they go through in 2nd and reached the semis they'd be in the first one. Would love to be there if they reached the final.

    Holland will go through in 2nd though and Germany first, dont think Ronaldo can carry Portgual more or less on his own.

    Such a strong squad Germany have and stuck a nice wee 10 spot on at 3/1 for being outright winners.

    3's to win the whole competition? Surely they must be higher priced than that. There is a very realistic chance they will be knocked out in the group phase.

    I'd have to say Germany 1 and ofcourse hope for us to go through as well. But most likely Portugal is gonna cheat their way through by diving and crying for cards against us....I feel it. *!

    Germany: Win group and tournament for me
    Holland: Will edge 2nd place
    Denmark: Very good side and could cause serious problems for the big 2
    Portugal: they have been very poor of late and Ronaldo cant do it all on his own

    Germany to finish top dogs here.

    It's defo a two way battle between the dutch and Portuguese for second though. I'll go for the dutch to finish second due to it being my ancestral home. It's unfortunate one of the top teams are going to crash out early in this group.
