Just saw the predicted Netherlands line up… WTF? How did the quality of Dutch footballers fall off so bad? That team in the 2010 World Cup finals was god like. Now Depay is leading the line? :scust:
:russ: Small country. 10 years ago they had van persie, robben, sneijder crazy good attack but a garbage defense. When van dajk comes back they will have an elite defense but a garbage attack. Hard to get it right with 17 million people.

But Portugal have a smaller population and they’ve been consistently producing greats.

That Holland team in 2010 was incredibly unlucky. They just happened to play Spain at their peak. Any other team they would’ve walked that final.

let's be realistic here
to me, the 08 & 12 Spain teams were >>> 10

Netherlands choked the win away. Especially Robben did. But the 2010 World Cup had no all-time great Team.

Only South America creating strikers.

Game is changing with all the PNP. Italy, Argentina got caught out too.

Hmmm, I’d say in order: 12, 10 then 08. They got better each tournament. But Holland definitely choked it away.

I’d say in 00s/early 10s, South Americans were running the show as strikers but the game has changed so much, the no 9 position is becoming extinct.

Lewondowski/Lukaku are the last of a dying breed. Now it’s more about being a “forward” as opposed to a target man.

I think Belgium is going to win the tourney.

If I was a betting man, I'd put money on Belgium.

Of course, I want England to win but I know we won't.
