News and Thoughts for the game
well we look at the group 1st so far as can be seen group D would most probably be the toughest group this season. Greece defending champs, Russia (Zenit St. Petters won the UEFA cup), Spain (what people say as the most under archiving football country) and Sweden (hope that Zlatan is in form for them for this)

Zlatan Ibrahimovic should be the decider for Sweden same goes for David Villa for Spain i guess. For Netherlands, hopefully their offense can overcome somewhat holes in their defense. Portugal, lets see what "smart phill" have installed for us. Swits are at their home ground, they shud get a boost (remember what happened in Korea-Japan?). Turks qualified and have good players. Austria backing on home support (again remember what happened at Korea-Japan?). Croatia should do well looking what happened at the qualifying stages. Germany (i think are the ones to beat) good in form with a deadly striker, Miroslav Klose. Poland you qualified for the big stage, show what you've got! Italy, world champs nothing to say about them. France, former world champ and world cup finalist, don't know what to say yet. Romania have several good players inside. Greece defending champs. Russia they made it here, they should what they got also.

Players to lookout for..
Henry (Fra) - his dribbling skills and technique are impressive and eye catching. certainly a truimph card for France
Klose (Ger) - He is in form and a deadly striker up front, on of those hardworking strikers who score goals
C.Ronaldo (Por) - 42 goals with Manchester, can he produce a same feat again in Euro? this winger has incredible speed and great dribbling skills.
Cassano (Ita) - well they said he was out of form, but now lets look at him again
Ibrahimovic (Swe) - very impressive player, for his size his agility with his feet is increadibally fast, he certainly need to be watched out for,
Villa and Torres (Spa) - Both did well domestically with Torres good start with the Kops and Villa in good form.
Rakitic (Cro) - this youngster is included in their team look for him to do some waves if he has the chance.
Ribery (Fra) - this dribbling mastreo with Bayern was one of the top players of Bundesliga, he should be on the lookout also
Gomez(Ger) - this goal machine will make some nice goals.
Del Pierro (Ita) - hes old but hes good watch out for him xD
Sneijder (Net) - this real midfielder is having a goo season, his spot kicks are to be wary of



thats all so far mon ami..........
