There is every chance....

Yea but they should kick out lampard from the squad first

Well, they already choke away their euro you 21 group stages, then tie with Canada U17 team. Until England find true deep lying playmaking No. 10, they chances are as good as Sweden

I really wonder why england is not performing well with having players such as lampard, gerrard, rooney, lenon, terry etc etc.... I hope they atleast reach the semis of euro 2012. It would be worst if they are not going to perform well in euro 2012 which I think will be the last big tournament for some of its good players

It's been a sad spectacle for all the England fan's the last WC's and not to mention the EURO 08 disaster. Obviously the media strangles them and every pundit and has-been is a critic to every decision and tactic. The team just seems so wound up tight when they need to relax and play their game instead of aiming for 1-0 and sitting back the rest of the game. Also, a lot of it is the strenuous EPL schedule

Well I do not think they can win. They need to change their style of Football. They have no creativity what so ever. Their not even effective. They need to change their approach. Because it is not getting them anywhere. Playing long balls does not get them anywhere. Look at the top three teams in the world. They play through the midfield with short ground passes. Something England should take into consideration. They need to play a differant formation. They should ditch 4-3-3 and go to 4-2-3-1. With Rooney playing in behind Bent. And Young and Downing as the wingers. And Wilshere and Gerrard as the two midfielders. And the back four picks its self. And change their approach

That is actually a pretty good idea

Someone at FA needs to start a revolution.

England has the rare luck of having all the players of its national team play in England. FA should man up and devise some new rules that will help England get up there to the top.

1. One week every month, the national team should train together, whether there are matches in the calendar or not. They should work to win cohesion, harmony and team spirit.
2. Clubs will have no say on this and FA should make sure that no international will face difficulties by the clubs.
3. Players of national team will be forbidden to play more than 36 games in a season. Clubs will have the right to pick which ones.
4. FA should pay the salaries for that week off.
5. Long term manager for the national team. I don't care if he is foreign, but he should be given time to build a team. Of course precedence to an Englishman, unless there's a Scot in the race. Lol.

Feel free to add suggestions. It may seem crazy, but it is not.common guys, England can do better if they try. Can FA wrestle the clubs into making this happen?

We should win something soon though it really is starting to get ridiculous uruguay have won more trophies than us

I think that fabio capello is not cut out to be the england manager you need a fellow english men to understand the way that england play and that may lead us too some good runs in the future

Yeah I would say holland or germany tehy have got strong very attacking line ups

The question you need to ask is "Are the England squad capable of being better players and a better team then all their competitors". My honest answer is no. The England squad always completely self destruct, their media destroys them, their 'stars' never turn up on big occasions (Rooney?) and so on, and so forth.

Right now, I think there are possibly four or five better teams than them entering the same competition

Maybe depends on whos in the squad
