I know! :D
Even though my team isn't in it, it's still exciting! I supose it's a lot of fun picking a team to cheer on, and if they go out picking another! Me and my brother both chose 4 teams and I think mine will beat his :P (I have the Germans, Dutch, Swedes and Spaniards. You don't mess with me!)

Who are you cheering for Vik?

Portugal of course! :P
Although i dont think we will do well. We really lack a striker and not really happy with Big Phil calling up Petit and leaving Maniche at home. Infact im very angry at the decision and Big Phil isnt in my good books at the moment. He better somehow prove to me he made the right decision as there are many portuguese fans out there who arent happy with this choice!

Ooo, so you'll have Sweden and Spain palying against eachother :P

:lol: As soon as I posted that, It dawned on me that of course you were a huge portugal fan!
I supose It wont hurt having Ronaldo though, you'll hope he carries on his form for Man Utd. with country.

:lol: I didn't realise that!! I may change Spain then...

Personally, I think Germany will win, they were a wee bit unlucky in the WC and I still think they have a great team and play good attacking Football.

:lol:
Yeah, we need ronaldo in the form that he was in for Utd, not sure if he will though. But then we cant just rely on him to get us the goals. I just think we'll struggle to score. Especially as our team have no strikers and then they have the likes of Nani, Quaresma, Ronaldo etc all going to play as stikers or well players on the wing but they'll be told to get far forward. I dotn know, i just cant see it being any good for portugal this year.

:o You need Spain more than Sweden! :rolleyes: lol, iwould say that though :P
Iker needs you to cheer him on ;)

Yeah, they probably do have a very good chance. They do play nice football and they have good bunch of players. They will be one of the favourites.

Hup Holland!

I'm kinda sad that Seedorf pulled out of contention. It seems that Bouhlarouz is being called up in his place.

Well, Portugal didn't do too badly last time, didn't you get to the final? Good luck, you should be in with a chance as you do have some very good players.

Yeaaah, but Sweden have more chance of getting futher than Spain(they are just terrible in internationals!) and I am very annoyed with Aragones for not playing Raul <_<

Anna- Who's/what's Furia?! :blink: :lol:

I know, i would have liked to see Raul play. Its a shame he hasnt been called up. Hes had a brilliant season and a shame he couldnt be rewarded for it!

Portugal got to the Semis and lost out on a Zidane Pen. So upset to lose out because of a stupid penalty! Then we lost the 3rd place game as well v Germany so in the end we finished 4th which i guess isnt too bad. Just now most our players are a couple of years older and our striker options up front are quite bad. I just think we'll struggle.
