EURO 2012

Salaam Jumuuah Mubarakah!

We are now reaching mid point of 2012, how time flies!  With  Ah Jib Gor still can't make up his fickle mind, the election talks are stale now.  So let's talk something more interesting than the color of Big Momma's handbags, the European Championship 2012 @ EURO12.

We have reached the end of EURO12 and the stage is set for Spain and Italy to battle it out for the ultimate price as the King of Europe in three days time.  Before i give my prediction for the final let's give my first XI based on preferred system of 4-4-2 (I'm a traditionalist & nobody really knows how to play "false 9" unless Pep is your manager & Messi is in your team!) ;

Goalkeeper: Casillas
Left Back: Alba
Centre Half: Hummels
Fullback: Pepe
Right Back: Arbeloa
Left Wing: Ronaldo
Defensive Midfielder: Schewieni
Offensive Midfileder: Pirlo
Right Wing: Silva
Forward: Ozil
Forward: Balotelli

Spain:  As a avid Espana supporter i want them to win it all.  But so far they have been boring team which will keep the ball for so looooooong & frustrate the opponents via tiki-taka.  There is no element of surprise in their style of plays & this is boring to watch.  Also Vicente Del Bosque's emphasis on defending make them look like the old fortress Italian team.

Italy:  Italia had been the most outstanding & entertaining team for EURO12.  The old Italian way of building a team with the defense had been successfully discarded by Cesare Prandelli.  With Andrea Pirlo @Steven Tyler's Twin pulling the strings in the middle of the park & Crazy Balatolol keep scoring from impossible angles they are joy to watch. Their style of play makes them the most interesting team to watch.

Result:  Italy will win the final by 2-0 IF Balatolol can keep his cool & be on the field for the entire match!
