Not being that enthusastic about Engerland, or international football in general, i'm probably not best qualified to judge them.
One thing i do know is that Kevin Keegan is not a good enough manager at this level. The guy's a muppet. He'd make a good assistant manager, but when it comes to tactics he's only marginally superior to Barry 'the brain' Fry.
Ever noticed how when a team of his loses he never has an answer to why. Englands performance against Scotland (at Wembely) was a prime example. He's thick. End of story.
Anyway, I reckon England will play sub-standard, but scrape into the next round, only to be overcome by a tacticly superior side.
On the way Shearer'll score a penalty or two and the papers will go on about their 'Tommy spirit' and backs to the wall bulldog mentality.
But they'll still be losers.
