Our closest to world domination was, perhaps, 1958. Brazil beating us 1-0 in the quarter final, with us missing John Charles (a decent shout for the World’s no.1 at the time) due to him being physically assaulted in the previous game, then going on to shove 5 on France in the semi & 5 on Sweden in the final. With the games taking place in such a short time scale, on form you’d have thought we’d have taken care of both France and Sweden considering their showings against Brazil compared to ours.
