Next time around those who played yesterday will be the same age as the Argentina side are now.
So they'll have grown in experience and hopefully physicality.
And of course others will emerge in the meantime.
England did get muscled off the ball yesterday.
As others have in previous tournaments.
So it might be something to consider when selecting in future.

I have to say, they got further than I thought.

@BluntSm0ker Yes I’m pleased with them overall. Lots of big teams embarrassed themselves early on - Germany, Brazil, Portugal - so I'm satisfied we’ve played well.

They didn't have a terrible tournament.
The likes of Brazil, Germany, Portugal and the Netherlands did. All four are great powers who did worse than they should with the talent available.
England is ranked fourth by FIFA and got to the semi. It's a solid par, or maybe even a birdie given that Mexico in the Azteca was such a tough assignment.
And yet...
Frustrations linger. England rarely looked convincing, even against weaker opposition. In addition, the manner of the defeat to Argentina is also a blemish given that they are a similar standard to us and we took the lead.
Spain and France are the best two teams and England fans had no eight to expect to win the contest because of that..The most frustrating defeat though is when you fail knowing that you could have done more.

Yes they did. It just seems a shame that they ran out of belief.
