, good one! Youse say that every year! No one will come close to Spain, Argentina or Brazil me thinks. England are top of a crappy table I mean look who they have beaten. No offence like
No no. Every table has 2 good teams in and a bunch of crap teams in.
The difference between England and the other 'home nations' groups is that England are one of the 2 'good teams' along with Croatia in their group, where as the likes of Scotland and Northern Ireland are one of the crap teams in their groups chasing the 2 good teams.
Our reserves beat Germany in their own back yard a few months ago quite easily, and Germany finished 2nd in Euro 2008. A very weakened England side always also went to Spain and all be it gifted them 2 goals, had enough opportunities to win the game.
We have a better all round team than Brazil and Argentina.
Spain and possibly Italy are the only teams capable of stopping England, but I think England have a better defence than Spain and a better midfield and attack than Italy.
