The blinkered bit was saying England look the best bar Spain - well no, they don't though, do they? As mentioned since, look at Italy and Argentina. They look very good right now. As for Brazil, they don't even bother trying until the knockouts. Why waste energy, right? I suppose I should mention Holland. They look ok. Probably the strongest team they have had since about 1992. Robben of course looks great, but needs to become more of a team player. There is a fair amount of youth in the team, and with that comes inexperience, but only time will give them that. I don't expect Holland to win this tournament, but they should reach the semi's. Personally, looking at England so far, I think the Quarters will be their last game. Sorry.
