In a few days’ time the Euro 2013 tournament will get under way in Sweden and hopefully England can do better than their male counterparts in the recent U21 and U20 tournaments that have brought so much criticism of the youth football system in this country.

This month sees the biggest contest in European women’s football take place in Sweden. Many might be quick to knock it but the female game has improved beyond belief over the past decade and this tournament is likely to provide ample evidence of that.

Stuart Pearce, as a manager, very much landed on his feet with the England Under-21 gig. His time at Man City is remembered as a failure, with his final season only bringing 10 goals from 19 home games. So how did he get his current job, and will he be continuing past the European Championships, as he wishes?

Republic of Ireland manager Giovanni Trappatoni has of late led what many would call a charmed managerial life. Many would have thanked him and said goodnight after what was an occasionally embarrassing Euro 2012 tournament, which ended with no points and only one goal.

With a Bayern Munich, Borussia Dortmund Champions League final played out last weekend at Wembley, German football has taken centre stage again. With a young national team full of exciting talents, the Deutsch Fussball Manschaft may well prove the team to beat in Brazil in 2014. Many of Germany’s greatest players have graced our shores, and to celebrate their domestic dominance I have picked out my top-five Germans to have played in England.

When it was announced that Brazil would host the 2014 World Cup there was huge celebration that the competition was finally coming back to South America after an absence of 36 years. The Samba Boys are the only team to have competed in every single World Cup since its beginning in 1930 and they still remain the most successful country with five titles to their name. Will they manage to celebrate a home triumph and claim a sixth trophy?
