    Possibly.

    But my point us even if you played in Siberia, USA will no longer fear England because their players are competing week in and week out against their opponents.

    In 1990 when Cameroon beat Argentina it was a massive shock. But if a team like Senegal let's say Mane was here play France or anyone else, it is different. Cause now u have Mane 2nd place Ballon dor. Mendy voted best goalkeeper last year, Those 2 are CL winners. Koulibally Chelsea, Ismail Sarr gave us a tough time when we played Watford. So why would he for example not turn Shaw, Tripper inside out etc. Playing field is very equal now. It is not conditions. Fear factor is gone. Japan beating Germany is not a fluke in my eyes. Their players are in big leagues.

    Another 1 who won't win the WC. Nation has great history but thus group is not vintage. If they were in a stronger group they could have been struggling for last 16. One of the worst Dutch sides ever.

    The Dutch are another good team but lack a goal scorer. There are few world class strikers on many of the traditionally stronger nations now it seems.

    Lovely strike Lionel. Unsighted keeper but a good strike still.
