I honestly believe that if our strikers had played one touch football instead of sodding about we could have won the World cup easily, particularly as most of the good teams were out. Whether we will get the chance again in four years time remains to be seen.

England had many many top quality players from top clubs who were eligible are not there, like for example: Callum Hudson-Odoi, Mason Mount, Jadon Sancho, Curtis Jones, Ryan Sessegnon, Reiss Nelson, Eddie Nketiah, Joe Willock and Phil Foden
With a squad consisting mainly of lower league no-hopers it was no surprise we didn't make the last four - never mind RETAIN the title. This group can still qualify for the u20 World Cup that we HOLD as champions.
It's a new dawn breaking.
