Eriksson," I don't want to come home after three games, that would be sad. "

England is involved in the most interesting Group, with Argentina, Sweden, Nigeria.
A very difficult one, because only two teams qualify for the second round.

"I don't want to come home after three games, that would be sad. But Argentina, Nigeria and Sweden (England's group opponents) will be saying the same thing of course."

"We can be a dark horse, who knows? But we must try to survive after the first three games. "

"We have a very young squad and we have some older players, like David Seaman and Teddy Sheringham, which should be the fathers of the team. "

"Some of the players have a complete lack of experience on the stage where we are going but I think they deserve to be there, and when you look at the squad I tried to take the best players I could find in this country. "
