This is the easiest one yet yo, Euros is for Germany, France or the declinning spaniards to show they are still living. Belgium winning European championship sounds funny as fuck, regardless of amount of quality players they have right now.

no way we're gonna win it.

Oh talentwise we are a whole lot better. But Italy has that strong Juve defense and we tend to lose ourselves in possession of the ball, as in passing it around but going nowhere. If Italy kan keep it tight at the back, I can see a Candreva counter happening.

If we don't win against Italy I will consider it a disgrace however. There can't be excuses for these Belgian players to lose against that team.

I wouldn't see it as a disgrace but more like once in a lifetime chance with all these names.

You can't go there and not try to win when you have Hazard and Italy's got Insigne as simple as that.

Germany or France, dont see how the others have a bigger chance or teams that rival them (France besides promising generation mainly home field part).

I see the French team going for it, their team is so balanced it's scary.

Talent speaking, France, Belgium and Spain are to keep an eye on. I don't see the Germans' making the final.

England's team is also to keep an eye on, they have good individuals this year not sure about their mentality though.

I know. It's just weird. But looking at the players we and France are favorites. Germany have looked less than impressive ever since they won the WC imo. I think Spain will surprise and do rather well, but they're not good enough to win it.

 

[Osman]

Germany look less then they used to, but not sure they regressed to the point they are equal to let alone inferior to Belgium tho. Thats kind of wishful thinking.

 

[DAiDEViL]

Pogba will lift the trophy. France are the clear favorites imo.

we have no LB, no RB, a crippled CM, no Striker and Bundes-Jogi as our coach. yeah. we're so gonna win it.

I think Belgium has the more talented side right now, but Germany has an entire history of being able to win trophies. That's a big factor to have in your favour. Either way I guess most people see France as favourites by now. It's strange how strong they look right now. I'm sure no one would have called them favourites three, two, maybe even one year ago.

thats not how you jinx it

 

[DAiDEViL]

no need to jinx it. Jogi got this.

 

[zizinho]

They are gonna reach semifinal either way, then we will see them vs France, Low might screw up again like vs Italy 4 years ago.

Hoping for a Italy - France final again

I felt sad for Zizou that day, even though I wanted him to lose that one. He didn't deserve such an end, and vs Materazzi of all people

i didn't feel sad because i wanted italy to win it...and because it was plain stupid.

 

[Cerval]

France has a defence crisis, few CBs not available.

 

[DIECI]

Eder, Pelle, and Immobile Even the Egyptian NT has a better batch of forwards than that.

I'd rather go with Toni, DiNatale and Totti, at least they have experience and have been there. LOL!

10 - I gol segnati in totale con l'Italia dai 5 attaccanti pre-convocati da Antonio Conte (in 49 presenze totali). Debuttanti

 

[89man]

No real fire power in attack.
Insigne should definitely be taken though.

 

[Joe]

See.. I think he might be. Neither player has ever scored as consistently as Giovinco has done or reached his quality when he played for Parma.

I understand Conte's decision, but I don't agree with it.

I don't know if I agree with that.

El Shaarawy had a great season with Milan, 19 goals and 8 assists, in 2012/2013. Since joining Roma, he's hitting his form again. El Shaarawy is a must.

Insigne had a great season this year. It's harder to do what Insigne did at Napoli this season than what Giovinco did for Parma in my opinion. Insigne is a must as well.

That said, I think Giovinco should've been called up. It's not like we have Totti, Del Piero, and Toni on the squad so we can forget about Giovinco. No. We have Eder and Pelle, mediocre as they come especially Eder who's in really poor form. And an unproven Zaza.

Italy's attack is undoubtedly it's weak point. The midfield has its problems due to injuries, but I think Conte will flood the midfield with a 3-5-2 so we can get away with it. We're going to sit back all tournament and try to hit them on the counter. That might be ideal against Belgium, but against Sweden and Ireland...I don't know.
