Re: Euro 2004 : Squad of the Tournament so far (teams too difficult now :()
I think you're being a bit generous to Lampard.
No Gary Neville? (Cant believe I'm saying this, I hated him before the tournament!)
Edit: also Ruud - r u takin the piss? The combined yards of his goals must be 13-14 and 12 of them were from a penalty. Only his 1st goal I couldnt have scored and I'm shit at shootin.

Oh , and i forgot Vryssas of Greece as a striker. Although Charisteas' header against France is the best goal that Greece have scored in the tournament. The technique was magnificent.

Re: Euro 2004 : Squad of the Tournament so far (teams too difficult now :()
why is it that all brits still have like 5 players of the english team in their "ideal line-up" while the team played about the worst football of all, and didn't book any result aswell. (a place in 1/4 final is the least what you can expect in such a weak poule).
ps kura: how drunk were you when you saw france play? barthez is the bald guy.

Apart from Terry our defence was pretty awesome. It had to be seeing as we were defending pretty much all of the tournament .
I dont think i need to justify why people would put Rooney in their team.

Noone English has even posted a lineup, and "brits" doesn't mean anything in a footballing sense, since the Scottish are still bitter about something, and love seeing the English lose.

Re: Euro 2004 : Squad of the Tournament so far (teams too difficult now :()
Koen how you can even debate anybody putting Neville, Rooney, Campbell and Cole in the squad is beyond me. in the actual 11 would be a push but all 4 of them should be in the squad.
Cech
Neville
Stam
Campbell
Cole
Robben
Nedved
Galacek
Cristiano Ronaldo
Baros
Rooney

He was pretty poor for zidane but he gets in under the moment of class clause (similar to helder postiga, unfortunately i couldn't fit in rui costa).

Re: Euro 2004 : Squad of the Tournament so far (teams too difficult now :()
Also Larsson had a better tournament when you look at Influence + Goals + Assists than Rooney so id have him in the team, probably alongside Baros and Van Nistelrooy

I cant believe you'd have RvN instead of Rooney - I dont understand that at all.

Re: Euro 2004 : Squad of the Tournament so far (teams too difficult now :()
Well, put it this way. The partnership that would work best would undoubtably be Larsson / Van Nistelrooy / Rooney. Can you imagine? Rooney bursting into the box, Larsson picking up the ball from deep and laying it on peoples heads, Van nistelrooy scoring everything from 6 yards.
What. With all three on fire itd be tough to create an opposition all-star defence that could cope with that.
However. Cant leave Baros out the team, considering hes top scorer.. but its tough to know who to replace. Maybe ruud, maybe roon. But Baros isnt quite as clinical as Ruud so Rooney has to be sacrificed imho. Also, a pretty decent subsitute to have. Im not convinced his fitness is up to scratch yet, so maybe a second half 30 minute burst would be even more effective..

Re: Euro 2004 : Squad of the Tournament so far (teams too difficult now :()
I think that Ujfalusi and Rosiky from the Czechs have been awsome
Gary Neville is mint too as are the two portugal centre backs (andrade and cavellero?)
Tomason from Denmark should be one of the strikers too i think, he's proved he's mint meaning he obviously didnt try when playing for newcastle making him my friend
Sry for the poor effort at spelling
