A simple game this one. Just name a team that looks better than England.
Mainly looking at teams in the World Cup but feel free to broaden.

1. Bosnia & Herzegovina.

Frankly you are already talking jackshit with Bosnia.

And it's a stupid thread. In days of old you would be tried and hung for treason.

They looked pretty good against Argentina. Not world beaters but a tidy side I feel would do a number on us.

I am certain no one has been hung for treason since the formation of the F.A.
Further in days of old Badger Baiting was an acceptable sport, there were child brothels in Covent Garden, raped scullery maids were expected to be grateful for a bit of aristocratic cock and giving your child a name before the age of two was considered to be tempting fate. Rubbish argument.

Stupid thread, stupid comment. So far we've narrowly lost to a very good side while playing very good football ourselves.

But not as good football as some teams... which was the purpose of the thread...

This.

But massive difference for me now is that I feel good about our chances against anyone on the right day with our style of play. Used to always feel so negative and frustrated about England but now enjoy watching us play and feel relaxed, even if we lose because at last I can see a future.

Went into this tournament thinking we wouldn't escape the group but now feel quite hopeful of progression.

I actually think that was the best performance of an England side in a tournament for about 10 years, since we beat Croatia 4-2 in 2004 in fact.
Lots of reasons to be optimistic.
I can't help wonder what this group could achieve with a Rodgers or Martinez type in charge though, I don't think this style comes easily to Hodgson and it shows, fair play to him though he's doing it.

Although I have previously listed 5 teams that I believe have performed better than us so far. and that is only based on 1 game each, I am heartened by our performance and fully expect us to progress with 6 points.

It is great to see an England side attacking with pace.

Apart from Messi's goal the other night I thought Argentina were poor. Bosnia played well and deserved a point on the balance of play. Didn't understand all the pre-tournament hype surrounding Belgium. Their performance earlier backs that up.
