Euro 2012

[Animal]

Well, it's a tough group for us but the last tournaments we did fairly well in the tough groups. Denmark is no walk over, games against Germany are always fun and Portugal is a tough one aswell. Really looking forward to it now.

Group A is a joke...

[El Dios]

Group A is a joke...

I agree, Russia shall rape in this group.

You must be kidding (regarding Denmark being no walk over). We have been s**** since 2004.

Just look at our start eleven should make people go :lmao:

GK: Thomas Sorensen (Stoke) - only recently got back in goal for stoke if im not mistaken

DR: Lars Jacobsen (FC Copenhagen) - only play in FC Copenhagen on a half year contract because West Ham let him go

DC: Daniel Agger (Liverpool) - havent seen enough of his Liverpool matches to judge

DC: Simon Kjaer (Wolfsburg/Roma) - Named one of last seasons biggest flops in the Bundesliga. Loaned to Roma and now out injured

DL: Simon Poulsen (AZ Alkmaar) - The leftback have always been the weak spot in the danish side. We thought we had it sorted out with Boilesen (from Ajax) but then he got injured. Poulsen (And Patrick Mtiliga for that matter) proved nothing

DMC: William Kvist (FC Copenhagen/Stuttgart) Looked ok so far. But im not sold on him yet

DMC: Christian Eriksen (Liverpool/Evian) The Liverpool fans must have had a frustrating time with this tosser on the pitch. Largely overrated because of his time in Sevilia, Schalke and Juventus

LW: Michael Krohn Dehli (Brondby) A hit or miss player. He can have great matches and he can be utter bollocks. That his club is struggling in the league doesnt help.

RW: Dennis Rommedahl (Brondby) Been around since 2000 but age is catching up with this former Charlton winger

AM: Christian Eriksen (Ajax) One of the few sunshine stories of the national team. All the hype is well deserved

ST: Nicklas Bendtner (Arsenal/Sunderland) The Arsenal fans knows the truth, that this kid isn't really all that good. But the alternative isn't exactly likely to show up soon

For some reason the national coach Morten Olsen who have been around since 2000.(and accepted a 2 year contract extension to continue after the Euro '12 campaign) I believe that the only reason the danish FA keeps him is because Michael Laudrup have yet to prove himself as a manager, and that Frank Arnesen has his hands full with saving Hamburger SV in the Bundesliga. We are getting raped badly, it will be euro 2000 all over again. 3 games with no points, and if we are getting a single goal, then it will be a ****ing miracle.

If you turn it around. Back in '92 we got in because of all the bru-ha-ha down in Yugoslavia. And our players, who was supposed to be on vacation ended up defeating the reigning world and euro champs en route to the title. So who knows

[Colly]

You'd boss it if you could tempt Peter Lovenkrands out of retirement.

[IAceI]

Or Ebbe Sand.

[mikevandam]

would've been a good call, if the boss actually rated Lovenkrands. I recall he played in the first game against Portugal in October 10 where Denmark got trashed 3-1 (thrashed because we didn't even score our own goal). And that game he was subbed on after 72 minutes. So the coach doesnt see him as anything but a fringe player at best. Think there would be a bigger chance that Mads Junker of Roda JC in the Eredivisie would get a call up (and he has had one awful national career thus far)

[jack95]

Or Jon-Dahl Tomasson.

[therockbox]

I'm guessing he means Christian Poulsen as the DM.

And yeah, he was useless. 5 fucking million, Roy.

[DavidMarrio]

Useless would be paying a compliment to Poulsen....Woeful player for us.

[TCO]

Ugh Spain.

[Lineker]

Naked flash mob!!

[mikevandam]

Or Jon-Dahl Tomasson.

He was absolutely pathetic in his last games for us. he might have scored against Japan in the world cup. But then during his celebration, he injured himself. A total disgrace who should have gotten his coat long before, instead of chasing the all time scorer record (which he didn't even get because of the infamous sweden game where a spectator ran on to the field)

[IAceI]

Should Capello wish to take Rooney to the European Championships, he will be available for the final group game against Ukraine after his three match ban was reduced to just two matches.

But... it's so unlike UEFA to get the decision wrong.

[Matt]

What? Why? Surely it's rescinded or nothing?

[Starvinho]

Excellent news, I always felt that 2 matches was the correct punishment anyways. Rooney just needs stay fit now...

[MDK]

Can we just leave Rooney? He never performs at big tournaments.

[METALMAN]

Rooney is only good when balding.

[Starvinho]

To be fair it's usually just England in general who don't perform at major tournaments, could be different this time if Sturridge and Welbeck are on the plane mind.

[MDK]

Obviously we need Heskey.
