Could England actually do it

It's a strange world cup. Brazil and Germany are looking average. Argentina are looking very average.
Italy aren't playing.
With the favourable draw England have this could be their best chance to win the World Cup in a long time.
Another win is ridiculously overdue so maybe the omens are with them.
Would probably mean a public holiday to celebrate so a day off work too

Croatia won't win it.. you need your full squad in the WC and theirs is shallow.

England have a realistic chance of winning.. no less a chance than the other big nations.

I still think France are one performance away from kicking into gear.

Germany will go deep into the tournament now.. that's them woken up.

Croatia won't win it but England have a realistic chance? Croatia imo have a very solid side with the best midfield in the tourny. They do lack a top CF, which may be their undoing.

They lack depth, something that the England squad doesn't.

Some dislike England, but the world wanted Germany out against Sweden.

Good luck England and quarter finals at least, imho!

I don't dislike the players just everything that surrounds them, their fans, their media, their Englishness. Footballers are footballers but the baggage isn't worth it so feck em all n hope they get humped next round.

If they meet Brazil or France or Germany that's where the inferiority complex kicks in

They like playing the wee teams , the Belgium game has no pressure riding on it so wouldn't judge them on that either way .wait until they come up against a big nation and watch their erse fall out their shorts

I think as major problems go for southgate is obviously defence... will he stick with Walker at 3 at the back?..
Accident waiting to happen... er... again..
And say what you want about henderson, sure i wouldnt have him starting myself, but i understand why hes there, but he can become ineffective really quickly.. these 2 factors are an issue for me.
