This year I don't think the team will go all the way as before, maybe luck is on our side, but I'll still wear my shirt proudly.

hey I'm also spanish (I live in Switzerland though)! I also think Spain is weaker than before, but we'll see...I only wish we can humilliate the French at some point as revenge for their "jokes" about all great spanish sportsmen taking dope...

Buenos días entonces. The problem with the team is Del Bosque, I don't like him. He was lucky enough to jump in a well-run team done up by Luis Aragonés. For this Euro, he's made some bad decisions by selecting Negredo over Adrian/Soldado or not having De Gea as a sub (for GK transition). Not really that important, but hinders the team by not selecting the best. It could also be my bias since I support At. Madrid and as you may know Del Bosque is pure Real Madrid. At least he is taking Juanfran (was very surprised). But Adrian should have been there too, he has been the best Spanish striker during the second half of the season.

Oh yes, he loves Real Madrid too much. Taking Albiol is a joke, come on. He not only sucks, but he has less practise than myself, as I play regularely with my son...I also don't like how he puts Busquets and Xabi Alonso together. Alonso is a great player, but not for the combination football we play. He also forces Xavi to play too close to the strikers, where he is far less effective than deep in the midfield. And yes he should have taken at least Soldado, or Adrian. Anything better than Negredo. I think we'll miss Villa very much. As well as Puyol. I mean Ramos and Pique are great defenders, but Ramos is going to play in the center instead of Puyol and because of that Arbeloa will be playing on the right, which is BAD.
