Does anyone actually truly believe England are currently serious contenders anyway?
This is just a pointless friendly, our qualifying performances have been good which is all anyone should care about.

I don't believe we are serious contenders but at least we are playing friendlies against strong sides. I still want to see a performance, or at the very least players doing the basics right.
Beckham seems to be our only midfielder who can control the ball and pass it accurately.

Not serious contenders...firstly let's qualify, then tournaments can have a life of their own. We're currently rated 7th, which seems about right a last 8 team.

I fucking hope not. Those cunts waving their flags would be insufferable.

We may not win anything, but we need to work out our expectations. I would expect us to reach the World Cup quarter final. I would regard not achieving this as a failure. If we go out in the semi-final that would be a triumph - i.e. exceeding expectations.
