OF course England should be doing better. But so should a few teams. I think England were close to doing something good in the last euros. It was a flip of a coin against Italy and Italy destroyed Germany. We've some good players coming through. Wilshere's a massive player already for England and Jones will be a very good player maybe by 2014 world cup. In a few years the likes of Ruben Loftus-Cheek will hopefully be in the team too. Chelsea rate him very highly. Then there's the guy at Watford on loan from chelsea...
Does anyone really believe that England are the 4th best team in Europe? We are not as good as Spain, Italy, Germany, Holland but we probably are much of a muchness with the 2nd tier teams in the continent (at the moment) like France, Portugal, Sweden, Ireland and the like. The only saving grace for the current England side is how bad the Scottish side is!
Can't believe some of the nonsense I'm reading above trying to make England out to be world beaters because we've not lost many. The fact is the only 2 teams we've beat in qualifying are Moldova & San Marino. We've drawn to every half decent team we've played & looked vunerable every time & we're not even in a difficult group. Look at the group with Spain & France in it, 2 teams far superior to our national side. We'd have no chance in that group.
