How perfectly put. I actually think we can make it to the semis.

Greece have won it in recentish years so why not? My other underdogs are Italy.

I suspect we'll draw all 3 group games 0-0 and go out at the group stage.

I'm marginally more optimistic.. 4 points from the group stage, although I'm not sure who we'll beat, draw with and lose to.

If Defoe comes on and is on form, more than 4 points might be possible, his record is pretty good. 15 goals in 47 appearances mostly as a sub. Thinking about it, Rooney might come back against Ukraine with a point to prove..

Basically, this is England and almost anything is possible apart from lifting the trophy. I'll be watching as many of the games as I can, but I'm not expecting to be entertained by England.
