I'm sure you've said that about every team Spain has faced.

Gutted when Villa went off and can't believe he's out. Podolski is a massive threat to the Top Goalscorer part of my punt but he'll need 2 to completely rob me.

Ballack and Schweinsteiger are also a threat on 2 goals.

But yeah, the biggest fear is another poor German side fluking their way to victory. They're absolutely **** and if the same Spain side that played tonight turn up on Sunday, they will win and win well.

Klose is a bigger threat than Ballsack and the swine. I have afeeling for a 3-2 to the germans with a klose hattrick!

Forgot about Klose FFS.

[Reece]

At least you have a chance Shaggy. I need Torres to score 4

Oh **** sorry to rub it in but isn't there a 3rd/4th place playoff? If so A certain Mr. Pavlyuchenko could bag a couple against that leaky turkish defense! I'm only after laying off a few bets and totally forgot about that before I did

Nope.

[Nic83]

Maybe there isn'y one I dunno, no sight of the fixture on oddschecker...

[Nic83]

Nope.

Strange, there's usually one is there not?

I reckon I've more than a chance. Beforehand I would've taken Spain reaching the final with Villa clear top goalscorer but missing the final. Would deffo have taken that. He's about 2/5 to finish leading scorer.

Yeah there is, not sure why there isn't this time. To be honest though no one ever cares about it.

Actually is it only in the WC that they have one?

Nah I worried about that a good while back and had to check up.

ITV don't have the live final coverage They are ****e anyway.

Strachan, even though he wears some shocking clothes, is a good analyst. He tipped Pavlyuchenko at the start of the tournament to become a big player.

I think I recall one last time out. I could be wrong though as I was busy spending my future winnings on Baros Top scorer on a few lagers!

Ha - snap!

Don't ever remember a 3rd/4th place play off in the Euro's they do have it in the world cup.

I actually though he was pretty **** at times, all over the place like a leper in the hailstones. Dick cost me a few quid in winnings with various SITTERS misses throughout the tourney. Average player for me. Pogrebniak is their man striker, pity he was injured pre tournament, just like it was a pity Eduardo was for croatia
