Is a 2-2 draw against Switzerland really such a disaster?
Let's face it we haven't won anything since 1966. We were awful at the World Cup in South Africa.
But we do have the self proclaimed "Best League In The World", filled with players who aren't English and therefore don't qualify for the England team. If you named the best eleven from English football, how many would be English? Not that many actually.
We invented the game, but we invented lots of games that we're not the best in the world at.
England football fans and the press really ought to smell the coffee and not expect the England team to win tournaments no matter how much money we throw at a manager.
This is precisely why I couldn't care less about international football - it's riddled with delusions of grandeur in England.
Face the facts people, we are just an average side.
