Just browsing the draw, now if it goes to form England will face either Netherlands or Senegal in the last 16, then probably 1 of Argentina, Denmark, France or Mexico in the last 8, I'm not convinced this England side will be good enough to go any further than that alas.

I think we'll go out in the QF's which is about average for our ability (top 8 in world). If we go out before quarters its a very poor performance and if we make it to last 4 or better then its another good tournement.

I think anything less than last 4 then a change of manager is needed as whilst last 8 isn't bad if you start going backwards, especially after 3 tournaments, then its time to freshen things up.

Am giving it a miss
Like Cantonna dont agree with the WC being played in Qatar


Watching Rugby instead which I am enjoying seeing respect for referees and no one feigning injury diving wasting time etc injuries treated while game goes on etc
VAR excellent in Rugby

Apart from m’y beloved Burnley I have gone right off soccer

Think they will start off with a predictable BLM knee with maybe a revised rainbow armband if progressing to the next round then perhaps climate change in the quarter finals then who knows maybe full anti Vladdy for the final.

Yet another halfwit who declines to give an answer to the thread question, but tells us they won't be watching.

Honestly I have my concerns we're going to make it out of the group stage.

Think we'll be runner up in the group and out to Netherlands with a Wout goal :twisted:

England fans still queuing outside the stadium ... some been there for up to 2 hours due to problems with FIFA ticket App ... hmmmmm

To answer the OP I reckon at least quarters but the Semi is within our grasp if we play like 2021 ...

I think we have a better chance than I first thought so I'm changing to the semi's at least and who knows with a bit of luck could go all the way. 🤞

Got a feeling that England have peaked after their first game .

Early days yet but some of the more fancied teams aren't looking that great are they.

Argentina and Germany both lost their opening matches, and now face a real struggle to qualify, England, France and Spain look the best, but were all playing weak opponents so hard to fully judge.

Mind you, Iran qualified from the Asia group and they said they were weak. But Saudi Arabia and Japan qualified from the Asia group as well. I think we just made Iran look bad.
