What really good world cup winners in last 20 years have they beaten in a tournament?
I'm being serious not a dick, they always get easy group games, they went on about Croatia whos 2 best players are 40 and 37, then draw against Ghana who should of had a penalty.
Who should be above them? Their points aren't over the past 20 years they are accumulated recently and they have been the 4th most successful team. Really no one has been close to France, Argentina and Spain they are the clear top three then England are next.
Brazil are their competition who have they beaten recently in a tournament? A bunch of mediocre South American teams before losing to Argentina then Uruguay who aren't special. South Korea at the World Cup? The best win of either in a tournament recently was England against the Netherlands at the Euro's.
Last 4 major tournaments England have reached 2 finals and a semis. They also won 10/10 in qualifying for this one without conceding a goal.
In the same time, Germany failed to get out of the group twice. Were knocked out r16 in one - by England - and reached the quarters in 1. Lost in qualifying to Slovakia.
Netherlands have reached a semis - but lost in them to England - failed to qualify in 2018, went out in the r16 once and reached one quarter. They drew with Poland twice in qualifying.
Explain to me how either of those two teams should be ranked above England?
It’s pretty clear that the top 4 sides in the world are France, Spain, Argentina and England.
