because they are shit

Realism has set in after 48 years?

I think deep down they want to come out and say we could go all the way but realising that every time they've said it they've done rubbish! They just need to stop living off the 1966 and they actually do a bit better.

What? England squad is nothing special. They hardly have a world class player in there.

This.

They have come to realise that however much they expect to do well in major finals it seldom happens.

Its a decent 23 man squad though, defensive is a bit iffy

Stuck in the groups stages with a superior Uruguay and Italy probably the main cause.
