I don't think we will. I hope we do sure, but I still think we have 11 individuals in many ways and not quite the basis of an efficent team. I would say Spain have a better team than us, Brazil do. Also the teams that maybe don't always shine but always seem to do well in tournaments (i.e Germany,Italy).

I think the goalkeeper situation is a long way from being sorted, the defence doesn't convince me, and up front I don't believe for one minute Wayne Rooney has a partner he feels 100% happy with. Do not pick Heskey, maybe Crouch can do the job, maybe Bent can, maybe Owen can, maybe Carlton Cole can. But it's all maybe's.
