    i agree with this team but apart from one player missing.

    Gerrard was fantastic for England but Ozil should be ahead of him. Ozil has been great this competition.

    Gerrard was great but Ozil was better.

    Ozil has been the underrated player in this tournament, he was superb for Germany.

    he deserves to be in the team of euro 2012

    Gerrard was great?

    Maybe to a poor players standards yes, to his own standards the was he ****.

    Ozil was 20million times better. Garth Crooks a moron anyway tbh.

    I would take out Gerrard (how the hell has he even made it into that team?) for Ozil, Johnson for Debuchy (he was much more effective for the French) or Lahm, and I would maybe swap Alba, who was very good throughout the tournament, for Coentrao who was excellent. I would also be tempted to take out Gomez for Ronaldo or Nani, possibly Nani as he constantly looked a threat.

    Think Uefa are just trying to make us English feel better. Otherwise I can only imagine after the first 22 the rest were so bad they just picked a name at random.

    I agree, I would of even had Karagounis above our midfielders in the list.
