Ok I don't usually like to single out a team as a potential champion, but after today I'm pretty sure the Dutch will win this year.

What do you people think?

I've been very close to making one of these threads myself over the last few days, but I've spent so much time actually watching the matches I haven't found the time.

As for the Dutch, they look very good, however.... They're set up purely to counter attack. If they go a goal behind, and have to chase the game, I'm not sure they'll look quite as effective. Croatia looked very good the other day when they beat Germany as well. They were by far the better side, which I was surprised by.

I still think Spain look the best so far though - but we'll see more of them tomorrow. One of Spain, Holland, Germany or Portugal to win would be my guess. Obviously I'm supporting Germany or Holland though, in honour of our illustrious forum leaders wink.gif
