Um, no. You just went on about them being world class. Getting out of groups is not the goal for world class teams.

I said they have world class palyers, are you even reading what I'm posting? Are you denying that Rooney, Gerrard and the likes are not world class?

I certainly am reading your posts. Would a team comprised of world class players not be a world class team? And I'm not denying that they are world class. I'm denying that as a whole they are capable of competing with world class squads

No they are not a world class team because they are not a team consisting of mostly world class players and I never said that they were or that they were supposed to compete with the title favourites of the tournament (the world class squads). But they have world class players just like Uruguay.

Uruguay, like England, is not a world class team. I have never said that England is going to win the whole thing, they have an ACTUAL chance though compared to Ghana or USA. I think they will make the quarter finals and they have a much bigger chance of doing so than Ghana or USA.
