I actually have no affinity for the England team, don't give a monkeys if they win or not, and am really not interested.....however, I understand England are now 5-1 to qualify for the next round....surely this is good value? essentially we need 3 results to go our way
Italy to beat Costa Rica
Italy to beat Uruguay
England to beat Costa Rica
(with GD only needing to move by +/-1 to catch Costa Rica)
. I appreciate the point that Italy may not go wild man against Uruguay if they've already beaten Costa Rica, but still you wouldn't get 5/1 on the combined match odds for those 3 games...maybe 1/5 Italy v CR. 1/4 England v CR and a shade over evens if you're lucky on Italy v Uruguay).
I'm not saying it's a certainty, but Top tip from an independent point of view....lump on England to qualify.
Sounded alright until you said England had to beat someone!
