What with the injuries and the lack of anyone tipping them to win the World Cup, England with possibly their most talented squad of recent years it’s also the least hyped. What are the chances of England causing a surprise?
It’s simple really all they have to do is top their group, avoid France in the second round and a semi-final place is there for the taking. Easy isn’t it?
Not for England it’s not – heartbreak is always only a kick off away. Even England’s most blinkered supporter cannot see the prospect of us beating both Argentina and France to win the Cup.
But what about this sequence of results? Argentina currently struggling for goals, draw with Sweden and England. England are also held to a draw by Sweden but beat Nigeria by a bigger margin than Argentina. That leaves Sven’s men in a better position at the top of the group and the French are avoided in the next round.
Told you it’s easy – a dream but you never know. The feeling that this Championship is one too early for the talent Sven has on offer, so this time England doesn’t expect. Like they didn’t in Munich last September.
