I think Germany has good chances to win, Italy being the biggest rival.
I'm going to analyze the squad when it's being announced soon, but I can already tell that our internationals are hitting form.
We have incredibly talented keepers, even though Lehmann will most certainly play.

Our defenders are among the best in the world. Lahm, Mertesacker and many more will make sure we keep a clean sheet.

Frings and Borowski, being injured for large parts of the season are definately improving. Along with Ballack, we have a great midfield (if only Schweinsteiger showed what he's capable off..).

Kuranyi, Podolski, Gomez (25 goals in 29 matches!) and Klose. Nothing more to say. Klose doesn't play very well atm, but at peak form, he's one of the best strikers in the world (silver and golden boot at the last to world cups).

All in all, I think that we have good chances of winning the Cup, if our key players hit form in the right moment. Most of the times they do.

How come Croatia are the poll & not Romania? Is it just because they beat England there in it? Laughing

Croatia's chances are much higher because of the group's they're respectively in.

Although I wish Croatia all the best (I'm 1/4 Croatian Smile ), I don't really see them winning this tournament. Especially since Eduardo is out of action, their best striker. This is really going to hurt them.

I think they can make it to the semi-final at best.

Hopefully we can win it ( France ) but I am not sure because we have a difficult group and our strategy is quite defensive indeed a 4-5-1 based on counter attacking. Some player have not hit form this season so I would say Germany Holland and Italy are the main contenders for me.

I really want Spain to win it or atleast make i to the finals. But they are not doing well in the recent years when it comes to these kinda tournaments... Hopefully, it'll change this time...
