I guess this is why Roy is staying, couldnt ask for an easier group really

Group E
England, Switzerland, Slovenia, Estonia, Lithuania, San Marino

Plenty of opportunities to give the youngsters a good chance I reckon, could be a big two years of change for the national team.

True looks easy but they could be seriously embarrassed if they qualify

Thanks to UEFA messing around the format, even a mediocre England team should be able to qualify from that group.

Looks like another easy qualifying campaign before being humbled in the finals by superior teams.

At least we should make it out of the group stage.

Should they though, guessing the finals will be 6 groups of x4.

England may not be in top 12 rated euro countries by then to be in the top two seeds

With 4 out of 6 3rd placed teams making it through to the knockout stage, we'd have to play pretty badly to miss out.

England should only have Germany, Italy and France to worry about.

As we have seen countless times, qualifying wins massively inflate and over emphasis England as a team. We still can't beat a top draw team when it counts.

Thanks to UEFA messing around the format even Scotland have a decent chance of qualifying. They have the mighty Gibraltar in their group.
