Former Germany international, Jurgen Klinsmann has tipped England to win the World Cup in Qatar after their performance at the 2018 edition and Euro 2020.
The Three Lions remain one of the favourites considering the squad they have and the progress they have made under Gareth Southgate, but there are so many other countries who can beat them to win the competition.
Klinsmann was at Tottenham for one season and he was a fans’ favourite to most in the Premier League. He would be on punditry duty during the competition and insists England can do great things.
The former USA coach said via Matchplug:
‘If I look at England, the squad knows it is strong. It has proved it over many years. There is a progression in place.
‘They played a fantastic tournament in Russia. Then they played a fantastic Euros but didn’t win it, unfortunately. So now if you are a player or manager with England, your expectation is: ‘We have to go to Qatar and win this thing’.
‘The same thing exists with Germany, Brazil, Argentina and Spain. They go to World Cups to win. England are in that company now.’
