I’m not so sure. They’re the kind of team that seem to just do enough. I’m rooting for underdogs anyway like USA aussies Senegal etc
Having watched Senegal I think they have a chance against England. They are very quick, can play the ball well and have passion, ok not as strategic as England but still ranked 18th in the world and African Champions. If Maguire is playing they will exploit him and give no time for other players to rest on the ball. Englands last game could have been quite different if Maguire had actually got in the way of Rashfords free kick, he went the wrong way and tried very hard or had he got a little better contact on the shot that Pickford had to scurry across the goal to save. As for his shot on goal that actually went out for a thrown in, enough said.

As for our chances against Argentina, it's been a good journey but seriously I can't see us getting past them. USA v Netherlands could be a dour affair. Netherland always promise a lot but seem to come up short too often. Perhaps this will go to penalties?
