Bottom line is, England will not be coming anywhere near winning the world cup. Why? Because we're simply not good enough. I know you are Mr England and Woy and the players can do no wrong, but look at the reality of it mate.
We've made the last 32 out of 196 countries in the
We are good enough and have done many times to get out of group stages and reach the last 16
that is near to winning the world cup - Penalty f*cking shoot outs normally send us out which is just really unlucky
Our starting 11 all play for teams that challenge for Europe , we have a chance.
The vast majority of people on here would love England to win the world cup or even just get to the semis.
However we are patently not good enough to beat the Germans,Italy,Brazil etc etc.Getting lucky,may get us a victory over one of the top sides but that would not be enough.
And as for being "unlucky"in penalty shoot outs,its not just about luck,how about lack of skill and bottle?
1 example amongst many ,2006 against Portugal 5 pens 1scored by Hargreaves ,learnt his football in Germany,surprise, surprise.
I will be satisfied with us getting out of the groups and having seen us perform decently.
Sad really.
Edit my money would go on Brazil and an outside bet on Chile for a bit of value.
