I can't decide who this years team could be. Italy have a lot of crap going on with them right now, so maybe them; France had a dreadful World Cup but seem to have improved, but still have some bad elements in the sqaud- especially Evra; can only hope England turn in a good showing. I have England going out at the quarters to Spain.

Looks like its Hollands turn this year

I was surprised that Van Persie has had another shocker. I think he missed chances tonight that he would normally take in PL. And have we we seen the last of Robben in a major tournament for Holland? the qway he walked off when substituted was that of a man who didn't look too happy. All I want Holland to do now is put the Winker on the first plane back home!!

In fairness the whole Holland team has had a shocker in this tournament. I think Robben was trying to hurry things up by leaving the pitch as quickly as he could. Listening to RTE, they quoted Snejder saying their are a lot of 'pathetic egos' in the Holland squad, surely this caused friction among the Dutch players

i was watching the game itv (muted) and listening to 5live. 5live commentators were saying how good ronaldo is at the same time on itv they had 5 replays of ronaldo put a cross into the area into row z.
