England has a decent shot, but I think it really depends what kind of performances they get from Owen, Rooney and James. Owen's gotta play the way he did in '98, Rooney has to play the way Owen played in 98, and James has a lot of pressure. My money's still on France though.
True on France, but on Italy ???? You're probably right about Italy having the necessary firepower, except there's a difference between having it, and having the balls to play offensive football. And the latter is something Italy is not familiar with.
