I hope France crash and burn.
Can you believe Domenech didn't pick Trezeguet, Sagna or Clichy.

No the won't. Germany will.
Germany v France final imo![]()
Interesting team.
Outstanding in the centre of the field, and every other team in the competition would love to have a guy coming off a 27 goal season as their third choice forward. But, not much penetration out wide, and there isn't much depth in the centre of defense.
They're probably only gonna play one up front, and Torres and Villa will both get their opportunities during the group stage. I hope De La Red and Cazorla both get opportunities during the tournament. This team should really sweep through the group stage, especially if they revive the form they had towards the end of qualifying. After that, it's hard to say how far they'll go.
