Heartache again? it’s usually the case with England but something feels different under Gareth Southgate.

We already know the system he will play, the players are used to it, he’s picking players based on form and the team have are on a good unbeaten run.

Make no mistake, it’s not the strongest England squad but their is a togetherness and youthful exuberance. Harry Kane at least provides on genuinely world class player.

The prospect of Raheem Sterling, Jesse Lingard and Dele Alli in the starting XI is very exciting given their pace, energy and creativity.

The draw has been kind to England. England SHOULDN’T have trouble beating Tunisia and Panama, Algeria 2010 will still be fresh in the mind, but Southgate’s men play them both before the crunch match with Belgium meaning qualification could already be secured.

A lot will depend on whether England top the group and who they face in the last 16. Colombia are the team to avoid from Group H as England always seem to struggle against the South American sides at World Cup’s. They’ll fancy their chances against Senegal, Poland and Japan although they could come up against Sadio Mane or Robert Lewandowski.

England Prediction: Lose to Colombia in the last 16.
