SPAIN REALLY ARE THE BEST

I am no football expert or even afficionado. My interest primarily centres on the performances of the team my family has supported for more than 70 years, Tottenham, and England when they play in major championships.

The European championships, just completed, have confirmed that England are a poor side with very little to offer on a European, let alone a world, stage. Their players lack basic technical skills and demonstrate very little in the way of team awareness. In contrast, Spain have it all; their utter destruction of Italy in tonight's final match was astonishing. The brilliance of some of the Spanish play could only be marvelled at and the final scoreline - 4-0 - was a true representation of the difference between the 2 teams.

Compared with Spain, England really are no where.
