European U21 Championships

[mancity dan]

Hopefully this will get me through the next couple of weeks.

Group A

England
Israel
Italy
Norway

Group B

Germany
Holland
Russia
Spain

We seem to have the easier group and England's 1st match is Wednesday night against Italy.

How does everyone think we can do? Personally I think we will get out of the group but lose to whoever we face in the Semi's, at least it is some more football to watch.

 

[Syth]

In my opinion either Spain or Germany will win this one. Just take a look at the team Spain has and it's hard to look past them. Of course upsets can happen, but I don't see England winning against them. Surely you can take 1st spot in the group at least.

Is Isco in the squad?

Yeap, both Isco and Thiago are!

[mancity dan]

Some very good prospects in that list of players.

 

[Mancborn]

So did I read this list right, we don't have a single U21 playing in the tournament, if thats true something is very wrong

...who's been linked to Arsenal, Liverpool, Spuds et al and touted as the new Vieira, which will mean a lot of attention from the media no doubt. The lad's agent is working wonders for him.
