To fathom just how good England are, they need quality opposition which they won`t get until the 2nd round at least.

Of the other BIG teams, France were poor and Argentina far from convincing against a devoid of ideas Nigeria side.

People read far too much into poor performances early in a tournament and its quite often the slow starters who go onto the later stages.

Ha, for a second I just thought they weren't that great, but thanks for clearing it up.

I say Netherlands group is even easier than England's. They will most likely win all their games, and draw none.

I`d say it was even harder as both Denmark and Cameroon are better than Algeria and Slovenia. Japan are probably a similiar level to the USA though (more technical but less physical)
