Are They Hungry Enough?

England's World Cup history has been fraught with disappointment since their famous 1966 win at Wembley. Can they finally do it this time?

The general consensus says this team is the fittest and best for years – giving England our best ever chance of bringing the trophy home.

Brazil, unsurprisingly, are the favorites to win the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Brazil is the only country to qualify for every World Cup and holds 5 World Cup titles – a record. But many tipsters believe England, despite a few injury worries, have a strong chance of coming out on top.

History has taught us not to get too excited about our chances, but with a powerful squad that believes its time has come, who knows…England certainly have a new spring step in their step. Let’s hope they’re hungry enough to do the job.
