On paper the England squad is incredible, so I can see it. Knockout format often means individual quality determines the outcome, too.

Yeah, England has had some wonder goals for sure. And they made the final last time round. But especially in the group stage they looked really lost at times.

I've been rooting for them for years now, but somehow I don't feel they're as scary as some of the other European national teams.

Oh, they've definitely failed to fully capitalise on their talent and I don't particularly rate Southgate as a coach. Spain has been the best team so far, but anything can happen in a single game.
