[quote=DJ;1082595]Are Russia really so bad? Guess most of the players that play for Zenit are not Russian? Just the fact that they reached Uefa Cup Final and their results along the way suggested that Russian teams can be successful in European competitions and shouldn't be so easily written off?

I know England beat them by few goals at home but England didn't dominate the game in the way the result would suggest.

I think that Russia will qualify with Spain but maybe I'm wrong. I don't think Sweden are the force that they used to be. So I can see them finishing 3rd with the Greek team finishing in bottom spot.[/quote]

No they are not bad at all, I fancy them to qualify. Zenit is packed with russians and a few of Zenit's players should be in starting 11. Russia are surely one of my suprise teams of the tournament along with Romania the only difference is Russia's group not easy but surely easier than Romania's.
