    Germany in the Quarter-Finals. I can sense it.

    It's a bit stupid putting the host countries in the first pot. Thought we'd out-grow that by now.

    Best case scenario

    Poland
    England
    Greece
    Ireland

    Pick up 3 wins, have Rooney back in the team for the quarters refreshed and we go on to win the whole thing

    Worst case

    Netherlands
    England
    Portugal
    France

    3 defeats, might get a point but England become the Arsenal of International football.

    Group the world wants to see

    Spain
    Germany
    Portugal
    France

    Co-hosts Poland and Ukraine are given top seeding to try to prolong home interest in the tournament next summer.
    Fair enough although it didnt really help the Swiss or Austria in 2008 and the tournament was still brilliant

    Do they think the top seeds are likelier to get an easy group? This competition is arguably harder to win than the World Cup. So Poland and Ukraine will still probably end up in a group with a similar difficultly level if they had been in their natural pots.
