We can definitely qualify. Home and away mean nothing for heavens sake!
Can't believe the negative thinking on here.

England have a terrific side, great chance to win the Euros - talent all over the squad, need to prove it in the big ones mind - but enjoy their football, play like it should be played :aok:Quote:

Opinions I suppose
Better than Scotland granted 😃
We do have a good side but we always find a way of screwing things up. Sure in recent times we have a fantastic qualifying record but find it difficult to get together a winning sequence in finals especially in knock out stages. Did well in Russia, much better than expected and have some fantastic youngsters coming through. Have a chance in the Euros and should progress through the group with all matches at Wembley. Next two matches will be away from London though and thats where the plan could fall to pieces and Scots fans will get their joy despite your first round exit :greengrinQuote:

It's the same before every major tournament. England unearth the world's greatest talent then find out they aren't good enough.Quote:

With any luck they will follow form.
Their defence will cost themQuote:

If england are to get close to their potential they have to build the team round Kane, mount, foden and rice.Quote:

I might be in the optimistic camp here but I think we’ll still qualify if we beat faroes. Well get a confidence boost from being at the euros and we’ve yet to play the 2 lowest ranked teams unlike austra and Denmark who have played one of each. We won’t be the only nation to drop points to Israel
I think goal difference could always be a decider in the end given how arguably even the top 3/4 could turn out to be. Hope to see a few goals in the Faroe and Moldova games but watch us try and out 352 both them anaw.

Bookies now have them joint favs with France, they were leading the market a few days ago (obviously with so many home games being to their advantage).Quote:

Of course it doesn’t mean they can’t win the tournament, but I’ve always believed there’s at least 2 or 3 teams better than England at every tournament.. and this year is the same.
My money will side with Belgium. France obviously are contenders again... and Ronaldo might like his chances with the likes of Jota and Bruno Fernandez in support now as well. And it seems you can never write off Germans and Italians as well!
I’m getting excited just thinking about it, and that’s before getting to the fact we are there this time!!! Hopefully crowds and beer gardens are back in our lives when it comes round.
Personally not hugely impressed with England under Southgate. Huge amount of talent however think they will struggle against the best teams defensively.Quote:
