Ex- England star Teddy Sheringham has claimed the only way the Three Lions can regard the Qatar World Cup as a success is if they return home as champions.
Gareth Southgate's side have impressed for the most part during their three group stage contests against Iran, USA and Wales respectively, but the jury is still out as to whether England are currently performing like a side that could go all the way.
With the stern test of Africa Cup of Nations holders Senegal awaiting them in the round of 16, everyone associated with the Three Lions knows they will have to be at their very best to avoid an underwhelming exit earlier than many expected.
