They say there's no guarantee of happiness, but if you're Scottish and stick money on England to win the Euros, you're pretty much covered.

I agree - and probably followed by Figo and Messi.

Ah, now that's an interesting point PH - I was thinking Ukrainians are far better looking than us Brits too. And on the other side - I think Rooney is getting better looking as he gets older and surely the ugliest footballer in the world must be France's Ribery!
As for skill - that's why I favoured Sweden - I thought they actually were good players - but I think the greatest footballer of recent years has to be Zidane.

Incidentally, anyone else feel Sweden, not France, should be the other qualifier?
On the football side no because they didn't score enough points ... but on another side, yes, because Swedish people are generally better to look at than the rest of the world. They are a beautiful nation.
Just fill the stadium with Swedes and we can watch crowd when the game gets boring.

His first goal at a major competition since the win over Croatia at Euro 2004.
