'Tis a crying shame you lot are so inward-looking and unaware of World Cup history.
I need to remind youse that the United States defeated England 1–0 on 29 June 1950, in a group match of the 1950 FIFA World Cup at Brazil. The result is notable as one of the biggest upsets in the competition's history.
There is a school of academic thought that history tends to repeat itself.

And dont forget this bit of England USA World Cup historyQuote:

They need to scrap the 3rd place game and replace with a select XI vs select XI
Why is that better than 3v4?Quote:

If I was a player I don't think I could think of anything I'd rather do less than go and play a friendly game at the end of a tournament I didn't qualify forQuote:

I don't think the jocks have ever got out of the group stage.Quote:

It's something to fill the gap between the semis and the final. And of course ££££Quote:
