Germania and spain have the best futures european wise with france following them. Italy maybe too but I don't know. Italy is a different kettle of fish.

Indeed, the Italians are a different kettle of fish...Curious to see what Prandelli will do to incorporate youth but they are a bit more conservative that way.

Germany, Spain, England, Slovenia, France, Suisse etc. all have a ton of youth talent

Beast, I did say that France produce the most, their national system has been phenomenal. While the potential is there, let us see what Blanc would be able to achieve with them. The older generation had class, this current generation is lacking in that department.

Even then, wouldn't the difference between Zidane and Nasri/Gourcuff is a decade? Which is my point to begin with.

to answer both points from the words of the man himself after France crashed out "Gourcuff is the future of this team he can lead them "

Take the oldies and you'll see a clearer picture
Iker with De Gea
Puyol with ?
Xavi with probably Cesc
Villa with ?
Capedvilla with ?
and who is the subs , Spain will have a problem in the future , yes we talk about the likes of Monreal ,Busquets ..etc but will they function well without the fulcrum of Spain the quad of Iker-Puyol-Xavi and Villa ? think about the next WC not next year Meta
and i believe big part of Spain success is due to the big number of players in Barca which ease up the adaption process

With regards to Spain, their backbone has been very very similar for a very long time. Consistency helped them but I don't think it is for too long.

Well, lets wait and see what happens to Italy. I'm not sure if they're on the way down like France (for other reasons i.e. a clown show on all accounts).

They have a lot of older players who are older and need some younger players to replace those legendary players.

Well Prandelli is in charge now. Unlike Lippi who just picks players associated with Juventus, he says he will pick based on form and who is played well at that moment.

Did you see they papers? They expect Balotelli and Cassano to lead the strikers positions in Cesare's first game. Cassano yes, but Balotelli!?

In my mind Balotelli is not ready at all, but I like the idea of Cassano, he is a creative player and played quite well in Euro 2008. For Mario, well he still needs full playing time for la merda.

Balotelli is the future , with proper guidance he can turn to a world beater

however i have doubts on how well Rafa will handle him , he still might leave

retard is probably not the correct word but it is true.
the best people have some shortfalls in other areas.
