Probably still going to stick with Spain personally although Portugal, along with France could be outsiders.
Spain's starting XI will still be frightening:
.........................Casillas.......................
...............Albiol................Pique.............
Ramos............................................Alba
.................Busqets...Alonso...................
.......................Fabregas......................
.............Silva....................Iniesta.........
........................Llorente......................
I read Xavi is unfit. If not, swap for Fabregas.

You shitting me?
Do you realize that France was 10 minutes away, until they got a questionable penalty at home, from being knocked out by Bosnia in the last round of qualifiers (by sweet, sweet goal by Dzeko for that matter :-)).
They needed questionable penalty in 82nd minute to get a draw AT HOME.
Case in point - they are not winning shit mate. Team in total disarray. Teams like Spain, Germany, England will rip them a new asshole, easily.
You're certainly sure that when France played us in that game they missed Ribery, Benzema, Koscielny, Sagna...
Yes, Bosnia were magnificent in first 45 minutes of Paris game but that same France ripped us apart with full team in Sarajevo. They won 2:0 but we didn't touch the ball for most of the game and could easily concede 2-3 more. And they were on their lowest level prior that game (World Cup fiasco and lost at home against Belarus in first game).
France are much better team than England and if they would have a good team atmosphere on EURO they are big favorites against England IMO and could go far on that tournament,
Totally disagree with that bolded bit...but even if you are correct - Germany, Spain, Netherlands, Portugal are all miles better than France right now.
No way in hell they are winning the Euro is all I'm saying.

France are 10/1 to win with William Hill, for all those backing them, get down and place yer bets ;) I'm certainly going to put down a cheeky £5.

Come on then mate. You said we would rip France a new arsehole, so accept my bet of a tenner to the charity of our choice that we dont beat France.

You will do better than England..... But that is all. Yep they should be amongst the favourites, but a big test for Laurent Blanc.
The group A is very poor, Poland has a good chance
The group B...I don´t trust in Holland. to lose the world cup final can change a team, I would bet for Germany and Portugal (they are better than 2 years ago)
The group C, I hope that mi España will be there again but after 2 international winnings I have the feeling that they lost a bit of enthusiasm. Villa is a lack very important and nobody trust Torres. Llorente is great but for some kind of games to hold the ball and with "air" game, not our speciality...
The group D..The obvious is England and France. England has good team but needs to eliminate the old guard (terry, lampard, gerrard, ferdinand..:). is finally Wilshere in the team?
I would bet for Germany to win
