Arsene Wenger rates England’s chances of winning EURO 2020

  Arsene Wenger has spoken out on England's chances of winning the EURO 2020. The Three Lions have been placed into Group D with Croatia, Czech Republic, and Scotland. In preparations ahead of the tournament, Gareth Southgate's side celebrated 1-0 victories in both of their friendly games against Austria and Romania. Their first game of the EURO will be against Croatia on June 13. "The English team is for me the team who can most threaten France," Wenger told Sky Sports. "They have top quality players. They are maybe still a bit young some of them but this season with Mason Mount, [Phil] Foden, they have [Jack] Grealish, Declan Rice and of course Harry Kane up front and some experienced players like [Jordan] Henderson. They can compete with France." "They are not the favourites, they are the super favourite," he said of France. "Favourite is not big enough, because when you win the World Cup and then you have in your team, [N’Golo] Kante, [Paul] Pogba, [Karim] Benzema, [Antoine] Griezmann, [Kingsley] Coman, [Olivier] Giroud, I forget half of them… [Ousmane] Dembele. "You will have on the bench 11 players who would play basically in any other national team. "So you cannot refuse the fact that you are world champion and it’s a team which has not peaked. "It’s a team that’s still going up, because they’re all young these guys. Apart from two or three, the core of the team is very young."   source - Metro /Join us on Telegram!/ Follow us on Twitter!
