    Poland
    Portugal
    Wales
    Hungary
    Belgium

    One of these teams will be in the final.

    Belgium or Poland I reckon
    Poland and Portugal both bang average with a star player. Lewandowski is yet to arrive at the tournament so perhaps that will be his his moment, don't frule out Ronaldo breaking the scoring record though and putting Portugal through.

    If Belgium don't make the final from here, then Wilmots isn't even good enough for League 1 Charlton.
    Blaszczykowski has been Poland's best player imo, and they've been more impressive than Portugal
    He's class. Don't start for Dortmund, he'd be a great buy.
    I hope Russell Slade is reading this :-)

    So far, all teams that have gone through have got an L and an A in their name.

    Not sure that helps much with England v Iceland.

    err ... you might as well say "'umm so Croatia lost their knockout game then'" ... seeing as they're the only team so far without an "L" and an "A" in their name!!!!

    Sent on loan to Fiorentina after major cruciate ligament injury, which led a number of other injuries, but by all accounts looks fit and bang in form at the moment. However Dortmund already have Mkhitaryan(sp.) Who has really nailed down right wing in Jakub's absence, and what with Aubameyang being on fire last season too he could well end up moving on.

    I'd like to see an English team take a punt on him, his direct running and link up play would be well suited to our game

    hopefully Hungary - don't want anything to do with Roly and Katrien to have any success.

    I'm selfishly hoping for a Belgium win against Hungary, simply in the hope that they'll beat Wales. Can't have them getting too confident.

    Think France will click on to gear here. 2 or 3 nil to Les bleus.

    Not only we we owe the French for 2009, but also 1798, the year of the French.

    If Ireland beat France, with Shane Duffy & Richard Keogh as the Centre Backs, I'll be amazed.

    Can Giroud handle them?

    Thierry Henry definitely could handle the Irish challenge

    I'm glad I saw this post and got on. Still think France will win though.
