For benefit of those who don't know, these are the groupings of the Euro Championships 2008, coming in 2 weeks.
Group 1
Switzerland, Czech, Portugal, Turkey
Group 2
Austria, Croatia, Germany, Poland
Group 3
Netherlands, Italy, Romania, France
Group 4
Greece, Sweden, Spain, Russia
As the event draws nearer, I will be giving pre-analysis of the groupings, and as the tournament progresses, more detailed analysis will be provided with insights from me.

Euro 2008
Euro 2008 is coming.
I shall be blogging about it in a rather specific manner, as long as I want to.
So as the major soccer competition approaches, do look out!
For a start, currently I think it will be Spain and France in the final. That's just my initial prediction.
For my depth and analysis, visit in future regularly!
But as the competition progresses, I will still be posting about the WC qualifiers in Asia, so it will be action aplenty on this blog!

Floundering
I was overseas for a week and could not arrange my team lineups for 4 matches. I got these results:
Lose 2-3
Draw 0-0
Win 5-2
Draw 0-0
I am now floundering in 9th place, precariously just 3 points ahead of the relegation zone. With half of the season gone, I have collected a paltry 22 point total. If I repeat this form it would result in a point total 6 lower than the season before, and equal to my first foray into Div G.
My target is to better the 50 points I garnered the previous season, and to finish in better than 8th position. Specifically, I would be happy with a 6th spot. Derveld is a good scorer, so is Franko. I aim to sack Dominic Olfers, sell Ridwan Kim Wee, and see what happens. I need to trim my inflated squad.
It's been some time since I talked about Singapore football. The WC qualifiers are coming again the coming month. I wish the Lions all the best to finish in the top 2 of the group, possibly ousting WC regulars Saudi Arabia. And there is a new talent I see in the newspapers, a 17-year-old called Afiq. I hope you will be a fantastic local talent, to boost the local scene, and balance the equation of foreign and local talents. That would be beneficial, with Hariss Harun already blossoming to a regular.
Duric is ageing, and within 2 years we will need a striker. By then, Indra and Noh Alam Shah will be about 30, so youth must rise! That's the goal!
