England is ranked in top 5 by FIFA, ahead of both Germany and Italy. They are 1 of only 3 teams yet to concede a goal.

Only a fool would underestimate them.
They also only scored 2 goals in 3 games. They're 5th place favorites to win the Euros right now. Don't pay attention to the stats but how they played and they haven't convinced at all in all 3 games. They got outplayed by Scotland too.

To call the current 5th, and pre-tourney favorite to win outright a “terrible team” is silly.

England could get knocked out in round of 16, but they are a formidable opponent who should not be underestimated by anyone.

Imagine relying on "odds" to say how good a team is.

Anyone can win the Euros as Greece and Denmark have shown in the past but odds are indicative of a general consensus on what people who bet money on the game think. If England didn't have such a massive following they'd have even lower odds. They have managed to disappoint every single tournament I've ever watched them play.

Terrible for England's talent level obviously. Compare them to Italy who don't have any stars but have managed to play outstanding attacking football, unlike most Italian teams of the past. Anyways let's see how England fare in the Round of 16.

It' all mental I think, we've never fared too well against England yet somehow against Germany we've always played very well.
