Now the dust has settled on our win, do you really think a 2-1 win late on against a team that apart from a couple of better players are nearer championship level tha CL level means we can win the tournament. I would absolutely love to see England win it, but I just dont think we are good enough.

Hasn't the last 50 years taught you not to think England can do anything
We have a poor defense and an average midfield
It's really not going to happen

I agree but so does everyone else.

So shall we write off Germany (who failed to win against Poland) and Italy (who only just beat Sweden), France (late goals vs Albania) also who can have the same charges levelled against them? Whilst we got lucky, I actually think its fine margins. we dominated possession vs Wales and got the goal (how nice actually to score such a late goal as an England fan!) whilst it would probably be fair enough to say we got unlucky vs Russia. You can't say we are worldbeaters and it doesn't look like anyone is claiming that but we have reasons for optimism within the team (problems also) and it has been proven that lesser teams can win this competition if they play to their strengths. So....its possible.
why are our fans so deluded, every facking time.
Yes the other top teams aren't quite as good as they were but this England side is also worse. They have no chance.
