Anyone would think you’d never watched DeZerbi ball

You would like to say yes, but up against a team who have so far won all their games, it is a tough ask.

the Germans could of easily beat Spain, France didn’t turn up against Spain , and after they scored didn’t create many chances
as usual building Spain up to be a Brazil of the 70s , they are a good team but not unbeatable

Different game
And yet somehow the massively inferior Spain squad has 19 CL wins and 6 EL trophies in it while the English superstars only managed to pick up 6 CL wins for their clubs. Strange.

Damn right it's strange. Just look at the players and the squads. I agree though, it's easy to cherry pick statistics to back whatever bias you choose, part of the reason club stats are largely meaningless when considering internationals.
Not the same side as a decade ago, rather be playing them than France or Germany.
If England turn up, they win, just hoping we don't bottle it.

It doesn’t come home until they win a World Cup. Today is just a bit bigger than the nations league.

If we win I’m going to go mental.
Agree. Victory won’t put another star on the shirt but it will still be bloody marvellous to lift a trophy. A big ask , but people are bigging this Spain team up too much. I’ve seen matches where they could easily have conceded two or three (Croatia. Georgia and Germany).

In some ways I’d prefer us to be wonderfully entertaining and go down fighting than reduce it to a bore fest and win.

I wouldn't.
I don't care if its the most turgid performance of all time, if that guarantees we lift trophy where do I sign?

Wait until @One Teddy Maybank sees this post
He likes nothing better than a defensive masterclass with a breakaway goal to win. I don’t think this England team are capable of that though.
