its hard to work out the best way to mock this prediction (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) I know the question was - which team will leave euro2012 without a single point.

World Cup finalists two years ago and not a single point this time around.

The Croatia - Spain game could be revealing. Spain weren't particularly good against Italy but looked very impressive against Ireland, but then Ireland were awful. If Spain take Croatia apart I'll back them, if they disappoint I'll go with Germany. (Yes I'm hedging my bets after my earlier less than inspired prediction (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ).

The bubble has burst around Spain. Looked pretty average tonight. But probably still too good for England.

I thought Spain looked no worse than in the world cup final, Croatia just weren't as cynical and nasty as Holland- we haven't seen the best from Spain yet...

England winning ugly which is fine. Sunday might be too close to call but, if England win, there will be the Germans waiting for us in the semis - do we really want to go through that again??

I dont think it will happen.

Both Sweden and Croatia went up a gear going forward against us and really should have scored against us or scored more . last night that free header should have gone in etc. I think if we give Ballotelli that sort of space we will be hammered. So far we have been tough to beat against ordinary sides. I also feel england are not comfortable on the ball when trying to keep possession - they take too long to control and move the ball on which lets the oppostion clsoe the spaces that style of play is meant to create. I still have the same low expecations I started the games with but look forward to being surprised.

I haven't been impressed with Italy and Ballotelli doesn't look anything special. England need to step up a gear or two. My worry is Rooney. He had a stinker last night but won't be dropped. That doesn't do anything for team morale. We were doing OK without him and now it's become the Rooney show it's probably game over. I hope I'm wrong though.

Did you not see Ballotelli's goal the other night! Agree about Rooney. if that had been Andy C miss that header last night he would have been slaughtered! In fact if Ac had played from the start we could have been two up! You never see the same Rooney play for England that plays for man Utd. maybe because with his club side he has better players around him who undestand his game more?????

but then one game Theo was brilliant, last night he didnt get a kick.

It very much depends on which Ballotelli turns up. But yeah he can be class on his day. He just doesn't seem to have many of those days.

And to be honest Rooney has been ordinary at best for United. Penalty kicks keeps his goal tally up. Not that United get that many penalties.

I see Sepp Blatter is now all for goal-line technology now one has gone our way.

The highlight of the goal not given in the england game was the fifth offical ont he line staring straight at the action and not seeing it. I think its actually been Platini who is most against goal line tech and he is likley to take over from Sepp
