As the national teams are beginning training for the Euros, or are playing friendlies before the Olympics, I am collecting pics of my favourites so I can post them here. In this post are:

Argentina's U23 Olympic team playing a friendly against the Catalunyan National Team.
Portugal players training.
Germany players training.
Swiss players both training and in a friendly against Slovakia.
Croatia vs Moldova.

Okay, that's all for now, but I'm coming back with more from time to time. XD

LOLLL. Kaka looks almost fat to me. Hahahahaha.

Leo Messi is really very cute. I love him too.

LOL @ Zuberbuhler. *headdesk* I still need to run my Swiss team picspam before the Euros start!!!

OMG, I never noticed how Miguel Veloso is always tilting his head!!! What's up with that? And I just don't get the flirting with Scolari thing, but he seems to do it a lot. LOL.

Oh noes!!! If C-R wins Player of the Euro I WILL SCREAM!!!! *wishes while crossing fingers* don't let it be...don't let it be...don't let it be...!!!! LOL.

Really? I'd totally do him looking like that. :D

Hehe, maybe there's a magnetic force that attracts Miguel's head to Scolari's? XDDD (I should just stop here, shouldn't I? XD) Or Miguel is just afraid Scolari will drop him out of the team, so he's flirting with him. As if he weren't good enough. Tsk.

I will scream, too. IT JUST CANNOT BE. GAH!

Really? I'd totally do him looking like that. :D

So would I!!! Sorry, I didn't mean I didn't like him fat a bit zaftig. LOL.

LOLLLL @ magnetic force attracting Miguel's head to Scolari's.

_{Actually, I think it may be more calculated than that. I hear Scolari is trying to decide among Miguel, Joao and Meireles for the midfield as starters. :(}
