It's ironic that the British press without fail, time after time, will always big up the English national team to be potential winners of the competition, yet whenever Germany (seen as the main rival for some reason) get's mentioned, they are always dismissed, and when the competition starts proper, they quickly change their tune. You'd have thought they'd have learned by now. I feel that for England to actually look as if they are going to do well in these competitions, then the media pressure must go. It's like an albatross around their necks.
