Who thinks England will be a top seed for their Euro 2004 finals group? If not, who will be (apart from Portugal of course). Discuss.

Also, on December 5th is the World Cup 2006 qualifying draw (yes, already). England weren't actually the top seeds in their group this year. It was Turkey. Surely England have proven that they can finish top of a Euro qualifying group by now?

Well, we'll all find-out on a week-on-Sunday (the 30th), when the draw will be made.

Seriously, though, I don't see how England can fail to be named a top-seed after finishing top of their qualifying group, and currently lying within the top-10 of the `FIFA World Rankings´ table.

...Plus, they are gonna be greatly over-hyped as the favourites!
(I think we're already 3rd with the Bookies, behind France and Portugal...)

Germany were beaten finalists in last years World Cup, im sure they will be seeded along with Portugal, France and Italy.

England will be amongst the 2nd seeds.

Are you sure they bother to take that into account? How come Germany were a top seed in World cup 2002 even after England pushed them into the playoffs during qualification?

And this is good news. Hopefully Scotland will get a group that they can take some results from. Although no Faroe Islands would be pleasing. Many Scots would take Germany again over them. :-D

England will.

Along with Italy, France and Portugal.

No Holland or Spain due to non-direct qualification.
