Wrong England have gone out at the group stages in 1950 , 1954 . and 1958 .
1950 had the old group layout for one winner. 1954 we got to the Quarters so no idea what you mean there. 1958 we went out on goal difference so you've got me on that one.
I'll rephrase:
In the modern World Cup format, England have only once gone out at the group stages. This is the same number of times the Brazilians have done it and 3 times less than the Italians.
We have one of the best World Cup records in the world. The people who think either the Italians or Uruguay will beat us obviously don't watch international football.
