Does England really have the power to be world champion?

Rmi · Saturday at 3:54 PM

I don't think so, there are many stronger teams

I think England does have the potential to be world champion. It has a generation of very talented players, experience in major tournaments and a very competitive league that helps the development of its players.
However, having potential does not guarantee the title. In the World Cups, there is usually a lot of pressure, and small details make the difference in decisive games. Teams such as Argentina, France, Germany, Brazil or Spain are also starting out as very strong candidates.
If England manages to maintain consistency, take advantage of the quality of its squad and manage the pressure of the final stages well, it can undoubtedly go a long way and even lift the cup.

I really liked England, a fluid team, always attacking, and for me, they had the best manager of the World Cup, with one of the best benches after France. I want to see them play again

England could be world champions, but it depends on a lot of things. Timing is the most important thing. It doesn't matter if you play well in the first few games if you're tired by the end.

Acredito que a Inglaterra tem potencial para ser campeã mundial. Possui uma geração de jogadores muito talentosos, experiência em grandes torneios e uma liga muito competitiva que contribui para o desenvolvimento de seus jogadores.
No entanto, ter potencial não garante o título. Nas Copas do Mundo, geralmente há muita pressão, e pequenos detalhes fazem a diferença em jogos decisivos. Seleções como Argentina, França, Alemanha, Brasil e Espanha também começam como fortes candidatas.
Se a Inglaterra conseguir manter a consistência, aproveitar a qualidade do seu elenco e administrar bem a pressão da fase final, sem dúvida poderá ir longe e até mesmo levantar a taça.

Beautiful reasoning! 😉

Absolutely. England has the talent, depth, and experience to win a World Cup. When you look at their squad, there are top players in almost every position, many of them competing at the highest level in Europe.

The question has never really been about quality—it's about consistency in the biggest moments. England have often had strong teams but fallen short in knockout matches due to small mistakes, missed chances, or penalties.

If they can handle the pressure and peak at the right time, they are definitely among the countries capable of becoming world champions. The talent is there; now it's about delivering when it matters most. ⚽🏆

Sem dúvida. A Inglaterra tem talento, elenco e experiência para ganhar uma Copa do Mundo. Se você olhar para o time, verá que há jogadores de alto nível em quase todas as posições, muitos deles atuando no mais alto nível da Europa.

A questão nunca foi realmente sobre qualidade, mas sim sobre consistência nos momentos decisivos. A Inglaterra frequentemente teve equipes fortes, mas falhou em jogos eliminatórios devido a pequenos erros, chances perdidas ou pênaltis.

Se conseguirem lidar com a pressão e atingir o auge no momento certo, certamente estão entre os países capazes de se tornarem campeões mundiais. O talento está lá; agora é só mostrar isso quando mais importa. ⚽🏆

I totally agree... ⚽✌️

I hope so. I don't think it's out of the question, but there are big challenges. We haven't delivered historically with good squads for the past few decades , with the usual pattern being strong performance in the group stages, followed by elimination when we first top level team in the knockout phase. The pressure and expectation seems to have been a problem for the players.

There is enough talent again this year, and a good manager, so we will see. As always , I will simply be happy with good performances from that 'has a go'.

This World Cup has shown that anything can happen. Spain's draw was a surprise; of the more renowned teams, I think Germany, France, and Argentina have a better chance of winning.

Esta Copa do Mundo mostrou que tudo pode acontecer. O sorteio que colocou a Espanha no grupo foi uma surpresa; entre as seleções mais renomadas, acho que Alemanha, França e Argentina têm mais chances de vencer.

These really are the hottest selections of the moment!

England do not have the quality or talent that they have had in past, but they have a manager that has pick a squad of players that everyone in it has a reason/roll/job to do (no players there for no reason), he has a plan A,B,C,D and even an E and F.
Weather this is good enough to win it only time will tell.

Coolcassv9. · 2026-06-22T14:22:35-0400

On the contrary, my friend, he has the talent to beat anyone, and it was a good move to appoint Tuchel as coach.

We do have the talent, but not all of it is there - the manager chose to leave a few names at home opting instead for players in good form. Still, players like Bellingham, Saka, Rice and Kane are ones that most big teams would be in happy to have.

I'd say the difference might be that the talent in the team is more concentrated in a few key players, while the 2006 team had more talent in depth.

Temos talento, sim, mas nem tudo está lá — o treinador optou por deixar alguns nomes em casa, dando preferência a jogadores em boa fase. Mesmo assim, jogadores como Bellingham, Saka, Rice e Kane são aqueles que a maioria dos grandes times adoraria ter.

Eu diria que a diferença pode ser que o talento da equipe esteja mais concentrado em alguns jogadores-chave, enquanto a equipe de 2006 tinha um elenco mais diversificado.

What midfield was that of 2006 in? ⚽

Oxinthewater · 2026-06-22T17:16:11-0400

Toruk Makto said:

Lampard, Gerrard, Hargreaves, Beckham and Barry. They were excellent players, most of them stars at their clubs. If pushed , I'd say that the 2006 midfield was better, but again we've left players like Palmer and Foden at home, so that is by choice. The manager is reasoning that while form may very well be temporary and class permanent, the world cup is now.

Lampard, Gerrard, Hargreaves, Beckham e Barry. Eram jogadores excelentes, a maioria deles estrelas em seus clubes. Se tivesse que escolher, diria que o meio-campo de 2006 era melhor, mas, novamente, deixamos jogadores como Palmer e Foden de fora, então foi uma escolha nossa. O técnico está argumentando que, embora a boa fase possa ser passageira e a qualidade permanente, a Copa do Mundo é agora.

Timazo, however, Gerrard and Lampard were never included in the English national team!

dreamer13 · 2026-06-22T22:40:41-0400

You are wrong, the Netherlands will be the world champion.

dreamer13 · 2026-06-22T22:43:28-0400

World Cup, Algeria will win against Jordan.

There might be something lost in translation. They both very much were in the 2006 England WC Squad, as part of extensive international careers for England. They never played well together , something many believed might have been the cause of that team's underachievement, which is maybe what you were trying to say?

dreamer13 said:

I saw the Netherlands the other day, they were outstanding attacking. I think they'll challenge, but I'm not convinced they'll hold up consistently against the strongest opposition - I'd be happy if I'm wrong about that.

I agree it was a good move to appoint Tuchel as coach.

The point I was making is that in the past England had more talent but it was not used in the best way, too much quality in the same position and player forced to play in the wrong position just to have them in the team.

Tuchel has pick his squad so he has more options if needed;
4 pacey wide men play 2 switch to the other 1 or 2 after 60-70mins
Need a goal bring on Ivan toney and drop Harry Kane back into the number 10 position
Still need a goal bring on Dan Burn to play upront with Toney and Kane and go 3 at the back. Get a goal and Burn can go back into a back 4.
Ball over the top is the best way to get at the opposition then start with Watkins and Rodgers use Kane and Bellingham from the bench.
Opposition Centre backs or Defence midfielder gets booked use Eze late on to run at them.

Pode ter havido algum mal-entendido. Ambos fizeram parte da seleção inglesa na Copa do Mundo de 2006, após extensas carreiras internacionais pela Inglaterra. Eles nunca jogaram bem juntos , algo que muitos acreditam ter sido a causa do desempenho abaixo do esperado daquela equipe, que talvez seja o que você estava tentando dizer?

Vi a Holanda jogar outro dia, e o ataque deles foi excepcional. Acho que eles vão brigar pelo título, mas não estou convencido de que conseguirão se manter firmes contra os adversários mais fortes — ficaria feliz se estivesse enganado.

The translator is horrible... they change the words!
