The problem is, that England over the years have never had a squad that was capable of going the whole way (too many weaknesses in key areas) but the press does a very good job every tournament of whipping up the population into a frenzied state, in that we are potential world cup winners, so anything less than actually reaching the very later stages is normally seen as an absolute disaster and the next couple of months are spent dissecting where it all went wrong.

It would be great to see England go off to the world cup without a lot of these pressures and just put on a good show, I`d love to see them win the WC but I know quarters are a more realistic goal.
