England legend John Terry has expressed strong optimism about the national team’s chances at the FIFA World Cup 2026™, saying the Three Lions possess the quality and depth to finally end their long wait for global glory. Speaking as a SuperSport analyst ahead of their opening match against Croatia on Wednesday, Terry said he believes England arrive at the tournament with one of the strongest squads in world football.
He highlighted Harry Kane as a crucial figure, stressing that England’s success will depend heavily on the captain’s fitness, leadership, and goals. Terry also pointed to the growing belief within the squad and improved connection with fans as key factors driving expectations.
While overall positive, Terry admitted he would have included players such as Harry Maguire, Cole Palmer, and Trent Alexander-Arnold, arguing they could have added extra quality and big-match impact to the squad.
Looking at the wider competition, the former defender named France as the main favourites due to their depth of attacking talent, while also warning that Spain and others remain serious contenders for the trophy.
