Sir Geoff Hurst is right. More than half a century on we are still talking about that 1966 triumph and dreaming of the next one.
Geoff tells us today we may not have to dream much longer. He says the time could be now and the England squad has the skill and the talent to take the trophy.
But he tells us something else. That it is not just the desire to win and Gareth Southgate’s leadership that is driving our players on. It is because they know that if ever the nation needed a boost it is now.
