FootieCall's Euro 2012 predictions




'Sup Footie nuts. The Euros kick off today! Can you feel it? It is there...

So here at the FootieCall offices, we decided to give you our predictions. I must tell you, it wasn't easy. At first, we tried to do the "let's vote approach" however after 12 hours and 6 visits to Groote Schoor casualty unit, we decided to do it individually instead. 

So without any further babbling, ladies and gentlemen, I give you, FootieCall's Euro selections...



Themba Sweet's Euro 2012 selections

Winners: England (since birth I’ve been forced to say this every 2 years “England will win xxxxxxx. Football’s coming home!!” never happens though)

2nd place: Germany

Top scorer: Torres....yeah. It’s an easy group & he’ll be served goals on a platter.

Best player: Is Heskey replacing Defoe? If not, then I’ll go with my 2nd option: Mezut Ozil.

The “El Hadji Diouf” overrated player of the tournament: Sergio Ramos & Shevchenko.

Controversy of the Euro’s: Somebody throws a banana at Mario Balotelli, he gets furious and karate chops the racist fan. Michel Platini runs onto the pitch himself to give a red card to Super-Mario & a red card to racism in general on planet earth. Evra is angry at Platini for being racist. Park Ji-Sung is sad that Evra is angry. Kim Jong ill junior attacks Poland coz Park is sad. Heskey scores while everybody is at war. Controversial? I think so. Likely to happen? I think so.

Blunder of the Euro’s: The birth of World War 3 is not the biggest blunder of the Euro’s. No. The fans and their insulting chants….the exposure of racism on an international scale & the coverage of any racist incident (which will overshadow the tournament), this is the biggest blunder. Me speaking about it doesn’t help either. So I’m with BCM – Roy’s squad selection. It’s blunderful.


BCM's Euro 2012 Selection

Winners:  Germany


2nd place:  Does it matter...nobody remembers the losing finalist, in fact i can't even remember what i had for breakfast...

Top scorer:  Zlatan Ibrahimovic or Karim Benzema

 
Best player: Juan Sebastian Veron. He's the best player evorrrrrrrrr...oh, for this competition. I dunno. Watch the games...

 
The "El Hadji Diouf" overrated player of the tournament: Diouf is African, so i don't think he'd ever play in the Euro's...i could be mistaken. Onto this prestigious award. Let's give it to the England side, their media will pick a few and get many to believe the hype.

 
"Controversy of the Euro's" Racism in Poland. Wait a minute...

"Blunder of the Euro's" Roy Hodgson's squad selection.  









POTZ's Euro 2012 selections

Winners: Holland (huphollandhup) I think it’s their time to shine. They were so close at  World Cup 2010 (Waka Waka) They’ll 1 step further at the Euros (Quote me)

2nd place: London News! I’m with BCM on this. Who the hell cares??

Top Scorer: Huntelaar (Holland) this man has been on fire for the Dutch National team in the past 2 years. Expect him to run away with the top scorer award.

Best Player: Micah Richards! Wait, what…. Ok, he’s not in the England squad. I’ll go with Rio Ferdinand… what?? He isn’t in there either? Fine fine fine, Iniesta it is then.

The "El Hadji Diouf" overrated player of the tournament: Goodness, yet again I find myself in agreement with BCM. But I’d like to mention that perhaps this name should be changed to the Florent Malouda award.

Controversy of the tournament: Spain are in the semi’s. There are 2 minutes to go. They are losing 4-1 to Holland. Michel Platini sees this and introduces a rule that “Any team with the letters S.P.A.I.N in their name can use ONE player from Argentina with letters M.E.S.S.I. as a surname.” Spain catches onto this, brings Leo on, he scores 3 and sets up Xavi for the winner!  Spain in the final

Blunder of the tournament: I think it would be the Greece government allowing their national team to fly first class to the Euros. You  know you don’t have the money so WHY DO IT?!



Do you have any predictions? Let me know?

See you soon.
