    So why do we fancy qualifying?

    Seeded:

    Republic of Ireland
    Portugal
    Croatia
    Czech Republic

    non-seeded:

    Turkey
    Bosnia H
    Estonia
    Montenegro

    You have to think Portugal have enough quality to beat the non-seeded teams but Turkey & Montenegro are dangerous outsiders & even Bosnia did well to finish second edging out the Romanians.

    I don't see Estonia beating any of the top teams.

    We shouldn't be in the playoffs after that **** game yesterday but we will walk the playoffs with no problem.

    It's hard to look beyond the seeded sides. I think all of them would be favourites. Bosnia v. Croatia would be a good derby game though - think Bosnia could come up with something there.

    Well we seem to always lose to Portugal so as long as they don't Qualify and we stay away from the top 20 teams in the world then we will win the thing :)

    Portugal i'm sure will be in the Euro. But we need to play much better than yesterday. We have the football to win against any of the 4 non seeded teams.

    Rooney to find out, today, whether he has a 1-, 2-, or 3-match ban. <whistle>

    Turkey-Croatia
    Estonia-Ireland
    Czech Republic-Montenegro
    Bosnia-Portugal

    Pretty tough games! I reckon Estonia are better than many people think, but Ireland should be too strong over two games.
    The other ones feels like coin-tosses.

    I hope Ireland do get there, they deserve to after the 2010 WC farce with Henry.

    Didn't help themselves vs Armenia though with Cox's handball then surrounding the referee to get their keeper sent off when the ball hit his chest outside the area. Anyway as for the matches i'd go for Croatia, Czech Republic, Ireland and Bosnia

    Croatia, Montenegro, Ireland and Portugal for me. Would love to see Bosnia go through though. I also don't think the Czechs are up to much at all.

    Turkey-Croatia - very close, tough one.. I'll say Turkey on away goals
    Estonia-Ireland - Ireland by an odd goal
    Czech Republic-Montenegro - The Czechs by an odd goal
    Bosnia-Portugal - Portugal by a couple

    Turkey to beat Croatia
    ROI all the way to beat Estonia
    Czechs to beat Montenegro
    Id like to see Bosnia win, but i think that Portugal will.
