Spain should start with Pedro Torres and Navas as the front three, it gives them width which makes them less predictable.When they play with 6 midfielders the opposition play very narrow allow Spain to have the wide areas knowing that they wont cross the ball and also congest the midfield which is why Barca didnt beat Chelsea in the CL.If Spain play with Torres Pedro and Navas Portugal would have no chance. Ronaldo will be non existent in the game.

sorry for your lost,but then every disappointment is a blessing,we just have to look for it. now the the football side, i have tried in many ways to compare the two sides and with fingers crossed i think spain will overcome portugal only because of the number of goal scoring players spain has as to portugal.

A nice problem to have in Spain, it's simply ground breaking in its simplicity not to use a striker. Spain's method and approach towards how the game should be played at international is thought provoking and challenging. This is great. Imagine this here in England they are still navel gazing going on about systems of play instead of very,very highly paid English professionals inability to retain possession. To conclude the best team without the ball gets as far as the qtr final and the teams who are better with the ball progress. You wonder where have heard this all before? Japan 2002 Brazil 2 England 1 post match analysis Teddy Sherringham (fantastic player he was/is) quote "when are going to learn to pass the ball" we are still learning!!! So, to hell with systems of play LOVE THE BALL ENGLAND/IRELAND/SCOTLAND/WALES!!!!
