If England actually win the World Cup, there will be no point booking any English pundits for analysis until the 2022 World Cup comes around.
The remainder of July will be a write-off for English supporters if Gareth Soutgate masterminds a historic triumph in Russia. Analysts will do their best to remain professional but nobody will be blamed for losing their shit if England go the whole way.

We're all accustomed to seeing Wright on ITV throughout the World Cup but he was enlisted to give his take on England's clash with Sweden to American broadcaster FOX on Saturday, when itchy feet got the best of him.

We can't say we blame him, to be fair.
