00:00Let's first speak about England. England, in my opinion, will be one of the favourites of the World Cup.

00:06I still believe in Europe, personally, by trying to be as objective as possible, that France is a super favour.

00:15Just for one reason, the country has more world-class strikers than any other country in the world.

00:23And by having four knockout stages, to have such a bench and such a quality on the bench will make a difference.

00:32France has been in the last two finals, so they know they can be there and they have the quality of the players.

00:39And I, of course, think Spain and the South American. Let's not forget.

00:48Argentina are defending champions.

00:50You know, until now, the World Cup winner has always been South American or European.
