Wardy's Wagers: World Cup Betting Tips for England

England's World Cup Prospects

What would an English football fan do if England won the World Cup? Stop playing FIFA and go to bed. Though maybe, just maybe this could be the year it's finally coming home. Let's hope that with a German boss the side will at least be prepared for penalties. In the past, England's fortunes have too often been scuppered from the spot with efforts as poor as the one taken by Diana Ross at the opening ceremony of the 1994 World Cup.

Eberehi Eze seemed to take inspiration from the soul diva with his almost identical spot kick miss for Arsenal in the Champions League final. There was no penalty attempt at this opening ceremony at the Azteca in Mexico City, but Shakira put on a brilliant show.

Tournament Issues

The tournament has already been hit with problems after South Korea played Czech Republic in front of hundreds of empty seats. Though if England have to play in front of a half empty stadium, then at least the Man City players will feel at home. Drink prices at stadiums have also been an issue, with fans moaning that local US beer on offer for £13.50 a pint. Which is scandalous for what you get. Why is American beer like making love in a canoe? It's f***ing close to water.

There will be plenty of more controversy ahead, but I don't think it will concern Thomas Tuchel's side. I expect them to breeze through the group stages with three easy wins.
