The ‘golden generation’ came and went without silverware. Wayne Rooney scored 53 international goals, overtaking Sir Bobby Charlton and Gary Lineker to become England’s all-time leading goalscorer, and still, the England fans awaited glory. But is there light at the end of the tunnel? Harry Kane has stepped up next and is performing beyond expectations, having scored 50 goals so far and just behind Rooney’s record, hoping to overtake it in Qatar.

This is not wishful thinking, as their squad is stronger and more balanced than it has been in recent memory. [+]

England tends to sail through the qualifying for major tournaments, which leads fans to dare to dream. Usually, reality hits due to unrealistic expectations. The English media highly scrutinize the team, and the squad underperforms on the field. England fans back their team to win, and the bookies stand to pay millions if they do the unexpected and win the tournament. But this has not happened since 1966, the pressure continually mounting on England to change this woeful international record.

Raheem Sterling, Bukayo Saka, and Phil Foden offer a new look to England’s attack. Talisman and captain Harry Kane provide the team with a solid core. This was evident at the 2020 Euros when England lost on penalties to Italy in the final.

How To Win At England Football Team Betting

England has a patchy record against the best sides but usually swipes aside international sides with inferior squads.

The exciting young players coming through the ranks offer a fresh edge to the England team, and the starting lineup is nowhere near as predictable as it once was. Phil Foden is an emerging classy talent in midfield and has been playing alongside a solid emerging talent in Declan Rice.

The first goalscorer market is replete with legitimate options as England has lots of players who can score goals. Raheem Sterling, if fit and selected, is always a threat while Harry Kane has proven a solid and capable forward at the international level. These players proved to be useful at the 2020 Euros, so be sure to check them out.

Prior to the Euro 2020 tournament, England had been unable to make any real progress on the international stage. They showed a new kind of team under Gareth Southgate but still didn't manage to get the win over a strong Italy team.

Defence will most likely turn out to be England’s Achilles heal. Central defenders Harry Maguire and John Stones are the usual defensive pairing, both of whom are liable to make mistakes.

Jordan Pickford can always be relied upon to make that big saves when it matters most.

The tournament the odds, as England progress through, on the match being drawn after 90 minutes gains value as historically they do not lose many matches later in a tournament, but often do not decisively win them. England have endured many agonizing defeats in penalties and look to finally put this bad omen behind them once and for all.
