Torres, huh?

Do we wish him well, now that he is playing in red again?

Such a strong team. This tournament could bring about the rehabilitation of Torres.

Hmmmmm I fancied Llorente was going to start.

That is some side they're putting out though

maybe Spain will do a Holland and Italy could sneak a win

Just got a feeling with Torres. He's in my fantasy team and I've backed him for the Golden Boot too. Just so much quality around him, even though they don't really play to his strengths, and it would complete a truly weird 4 years since he got the winner in the Euro 2008 final.

was thinking about this last night...for all Torres troubles at chelsea since he came to England he has won the world cup,euros,fa and champions league....as you said with so much quality he should have a field day in this tournament but it's also within Torres to have a mare of a tournament

Ramos at CB for me looks to be Spain's weak link. Alba could possibly leave a few gaps as well, due to inexperience.

That front four though, Plus Xabi and Busquets holding. Some team.

[Fredo]

This thread assumes we are all supporting Spain. Where's the italian team?

[Reece]

Dammit, I've got Llorente as top scorer. Start him FFS.

[colin85]

I think this will be a draw. Arent there quite a few Juventus players in the italian team?

[Chazza]

Casillas; Arbeloa, Ramos, Pique, Jordi Alba; Busquets, Xabi Alonso; Silva, Xavi, Iniesta; Torres.

Couple of line ups floating about with Cesc in for Torres??
