OP
I despise Grealish - such a Prancing Little Princess, the English Version of Fagiot in terms of nonchalance and faggotry.

Portugal and Spain might surprise many. Don't sleep on Denmark either.
I don't really see Germany as a great team, but home advantage might play a factor - in any other tournament I wouldn't back them to make it past the QFs.
I definitely don't see Italy repeating. The Frogs look formidbale, but because they're petty sensitive pussies, if there's even the slightest hint of internal turmoil, they'll implode.
The Britbongs have impressive options in midfield and attack (lots of talent), but their defense leaves a lo to be desired.
Still, I have The Britbongs and The Frogs as the favorites, and if they don't meet each other earlier, their encounter will likely be the final.

He will be the regista.
Yes, on the one hand that defense looks very poor. On the other hand, they finally got rid of Maguire. On paper England looks a lot weaker than I expected them to be. But I haven't seen EPL games in years now so a lot of names there are players I've never even seen (they could be amazing, they could be bonkers). I think their chance will be to press high and rely on their quick defenders picking up the counters. Pickford, I assume, is the same as ever before. Can do two great saves and then trip and pass the ball to opposition attacker. Overall I don't believe in Southgate.

England losing, Germany losing, feel better about our showing vs Turkey. Unimpressive, but at least Turkey didnt cause trouble at all.

I don't expect a repeat of the last euros, but I do think people are underestimating Italy. The main problem is that Spalletti has had no time and he needs to figure it out ASAP because of the crazy group. If we can navigate the group we can do anything, its a race for Spalletti, big if. The lineup is only weak on the wings, besides Chiesa the rest are disappointing. I would use Pellegrini in attack in a 433 and Chiesa on the right. Gives an extra midfielder and its not like the rest are worth starting. Other than that its very good.
France and England are clear favorites due to talent and experience, the rest are a toss up.
