Hodgson: Nothing to fear in worldcup draw's for England

Posted by VickyBoy on November 30th, 2017

Gareth Southgate's side, who completed eight points clear at the top of Group F in Europe's qualifying department, are in marijuana two for the service in Moscow.

They are paired with some of Brazil, Argentina, Germany, Portugal or Belgium within their own group in Russia, together with the planet's top-ranked teams -- and the host country -- in bud one.

Pot three also offers several hard sides, such as Iceland, who pumped Hodgson's England from Euro 2016 to spell out the end of his tenure.

On the other hand, the Crystal Palace manager considers the team is progressing nicely under Southgate and shouldn't worry about the possibility of a so-called 'group of death'.


"I do not believe Southgate or England is going to probably be bothered about that, they are going to have confidence about the way the team is advancing," he said on Thursday.
"They don't have to worry about any of these situations or perfect groups. I'd summarise my feelings that I'm confident that, regardless of what group England find themselves in, it really will not matter.
"What will matter is that the gamers Southgate picks will probably be great enough to win against [some] of these and I do not think England will dread anybody.
"I really don't think it matters what draw England get exactly what things is that they will go there having a fantastic team that I think is capable of performing exceptionally well.
"It surely does not move on FIFA rankings since there are lots from the best 10 I prefer to meet than 25 down."
