Podolski and Mueller were indeed whom I was mainly thinking of, but to a lesser extend even Schweinsteiger. Sure, he looked allright vs Holland but that was mainly due to the unbelievable amounts of space he was given by the Dutch. He's had a difficult end of the season with injuries and fitness problems and then there's the mental blow of that missed penalty vs Chelsea in the CL final.
Beating Portugal and Holland might not be an easy matter, but if you look at the results of the games that Portugal and especially Holland have played in the last year or so then you'll find many defeats and draws... Having said that, Spain haven't looked at 100% yet either, so it doesn't have to mean much.
