Sczcezny doesn't give me any confidence in him when he's out there. Granted, he's 22 and has EPL experience but he tends to screw up quite a bit, for both Arsenal and Poland. Russia won't be able to run around like they did to the Czechs against Poland's midfield. I think it could go either way.

They have a very young core, will be exciting to watch moving forward.
I hope you are right as its too early for it to end! Just finished watching the game on delay - Polska had some good runs and have been mostly aggressive, but some crisper touches would be nice.
Portugal just about did enough today to get through. I think they'll rip through this Dutch defense in their 3rd game. I don't see the Danes stopping Germany.
Germany can play some of their subs if they wish and rest up for the quarters.
And I think they'll still beat the Danes. Pulling Kroos and Klose and players like that off the bench is only a slight drop off. This team is loaded.
He came close twice today. And the pass back to Cassano should probably have been a shot. He seemed to be working hard, and was playing against a very physical team today which explains the tiredness to some extent. It's all instinctive at this level and the missed opportunity on Sunday and the general consensus being that he should have passed to Cassano was probably in his head today. He's young and only has a handful of caps at this point, and I think the substance will catch up with the flash eventually.
