Ballack to miss final?


Something tells me come hell or high water Ballack wont miss the final however if worst does happen it would be a great shame to lose a decent player from one of the largest finals in the world.

If he does play it will add to the list of potential Premier League stars in this Sunday's final. So far Ballack has had sparks of brilliance however has lacked consistency.

Other premiership players that might play in the final-

Fabregas: Has have had an excellent tournament even though he hasn't started most games he would love to add to his single goal tally in this tournament.

Lehmann: Has showed that Wegner made the right decision benching him this season, he has been poor this tournament and is showing his age. Jens Lehmann can become the oldest player ever to appear in a European Championship final. If he plays, Lehmann's record setting age will be 38 years and 232 days, breaking the record set by Arnold Muhren, who was 37 years and 23 days old when he played for the Netherlands in the 1988 final against the Soviet Union.

Torres: Has only scored one goal this tournament and has looked increasingly frustrated being in the shadow of David Villa. He needs a game otherwise any victory would seem slightly hollow.

Alonso: Has done ok when brought on, maybe a good shout for an assist or even a goal towards the end of the game.

I do hope this is a good final and if you asked me who I want to win I would have to go with most and say Spain.
