I am not so mad to predict all the actual scores, the Group stage winners & seconds can be inferred from a QF line-up like this:
Po v Cr
Ge v Cz
Fr v Gr
Sp v It
Then Spain fail to rise to the prediction of 95% of BBC pundits - again!
SF line-up:
Ge v Po (Ge win, Ronaldino gets sent off)
Fr v It (Fr winning 7-6 in sudden death pen shoot-out)
In the final the efficiency machine grinds out the threat of Gallic flair in a boring final to win 1-0.
Having said all that, my romantic side would like to see my predicted results of both AB QFs go the other way!!

CORRECTION: oops! 'Ronaldo' - mad speculation about RonaldinHo transfer to Sky Blues (get real!) lodged in my brain

Why is Italy's group considered the 'group of death'? France are poor, actually losing to Scotland (no offence to the Scots) in the qualifiers and I really don't think Holland pose a serious threat - they conceded three goals against Austria in a recent friendly and were slightly fortunate to come back and win. Romania are a good, but not great team. My Group of Death would be D, with the defending euro champions present, plus heavily tipped Spain and well-managed Russia (Hiddink must be good - every time a manager is sacked he's the first name on everyone's lips). Sweden are also no slouches - they drew with England in the world cup and gereally look impressive.

I think Ronaldo will break his leg resulting in Real Madrid cooling their interests, then he will move to Plymouth.

I cannot stand Adrian Childs but someone at the BBC must like him.
If they tied his arms behind his back he would not be able to talk as he is like a human windmill.

Croatia is special, and can go far on this Euro!
Bilic is genious.

Remember, Croatia always plays better against big teams.
Germany will be piece of cake.
