Laugh, 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 Wink


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.

Italy are way over rated! Sure we drew with them 1-1 in Italy and they still have to come to Croke Park. England are the media darlings in the soccer, always flatter to deceive! There are no hopes for us so anything is a bonus!!

But Italy are the World Champions. So they've got to be feared in 2010.

Although if we stay injury free, keep developing the younger players like Walcott, Rooney, Lennon and possiby Young, then I think we'll be best equipped to win the world cup. With Rio at the back, Lampard and Barry in midfield, Gerrard and hopefully Owen back in form as well as Rooney and Walcott we'll be a good all round team.

And not to mention the likes of Beckham, Carrick, Hargreaves to come off the bench.

The only iffy area is goalkeeper.
