[QUOTE="Triniquint, post: 153116"] England haven't been 'defending' the world cup for the past 4 years, they began their defence of it on Sept 8th with their first game against the USA, in this 2007 tournament which they started off badly, but are now not doing so badly and, by extention, defending it not badly so far. Of course England may not make the final, but I haven't seen anything from France to suggest they are automatically going to stroll into the final - nor SAfrica for that matter. if England go out against France, I think they'll have done a reasonable job defending the cup. Given SAfrica's performances, and two games against PI teams which they only won by luck and the skin of their teeth, they're not a foregone conclusion to win it either. Personally, if England don't win again, I'd like to see Argentina win it. [/QUOTE]
