Its been a truely marvellous Euro 2008. Its been the best Euro's I have ever seen. The fact England were not there was soon forgotten by anyone who loves the game and it makes you realise how woefully short of the mark England are now and I cannot see the ultra cautious and negative Capello changing that any time soon.

I would love Russia or Turkey or Spain to win. Russia have now played the best football of the teams in the last 2-3 games. They attack at all times and the number 10 looks the best forward player of the tournament with Villa.

Spain have been Spain, great attacking football again but will the bottled it on the big occassion as usual.

Turkey are the worst team left by a long way but 3 consecutive fight backs and scoring in the last 2 minutes is real Roy of the Rovers stuff so the fairytale is very interesting and seeing the lad who couldn't be bothered with BHAFC and the 3rd division now playing in the semi finals of the 2nd largest tournament in the World is surreal.

Please let it NOT be Germany or Italy. Italy have been shite but it would not suprise me if they grind out another 3 dour low scoring wins to lift the title. Germany are better but you can't support Germany, can you, surely ?.

How do you want to win and what would be your dream final ?.

Winners - Spain
Final - Spain V Turkey

My heart says Russia. They won me over last night.

I want russia to win simply because 1) I have mobey on it and 2) I think they have a great manager and 3) Because I think they played with real flair last night and have some quality players..... I don't think they will now though because 3 of their players miss the next match due to yellow cards :shootself

Russia would be a fairytale as would Turkey but Russia would be far more worthy winners.

I'm not quite sure whether the russians played well the dutch played shit or it was a bit of both

Definitely a bit of both, but an underperforming Dutch side would have still beaten most of the sides in this tournament. Russia comprehensively beat them. Van Der Sar kept the score respectable. Credit to the Russians.

I haven't changed my opinion since the tournament started, my heart says Spain but my head says Germany...however, both Turkey and Russia have an amazing work ethic and team spirit that makes me think either could go all the way.

The semi-finals are already looking pretty tasty, Germany versus Turkey and Russia against either Spain or Italy...if the form book continues to be thrown out of the window it will have to be Turkey and Russia in the final!

I hope Russia win it. The football they play is fantastic , wing backs and defenders raiding forward. Is almost like what the Dutch modelled their total football on. I think they are suss at the back though but they will keep comng forward playing the game how it should be.
Don't want spain as they are already up their own arse's over everything and would be funny to see them fail again

If Italy win tonight (and I think they will), all four group winners will have gone out. That meaningless game does nobody any favours.
