Beckham: "England will go all the way in the World Cup"
England are going to the World Cup in Qatar without a win in their last six games. This is their worst run of form since 1993.
Even though
Englandhave had a terrible year, former captain
David Beckhamthinks the Three Lions can win it all in Qatar.
The team led by
Gareth Southgate
is going to the World Cup even though they didn't win any of their six Nations League games and got kicked out of the top level of the UEFA competition.
This is the longest time England have gone without a win in almost 30 years. It is also the worst time England have ever been in before a major international tournament. Even though Southgate is under more and more pressure, Beckham still thinks England can win the
World Cup
for the first time since 1966.
"I will always say England. It's going to be difficult but the fact we are now going into a big competition like the World Cup, only playing 25 games in the season, player energy will be up, they won't be injured,"
he said to
Sky Sports
.
"They've not played 60 games in a season, so I think they are going to be ready. We have a big opportunity.
"Gareth Southgate has done an incredible job with the players. The unity, which I think is a big part of it, we saw that in the Euros. My prediction is that, hopefully, England will go all the way, but it is not going to be easy." England's first game is on November 21 against Iran. The United States and Wales are also in England's Group B."
