Totally agree. England losing today would be a blessing in disguise. It would accelerate the re-building of the squad in time for EURO '18 and beyond.
Being out of the top flight for 7 years did Saints the world of good in the long run and the same would be true for England if they missed the next World Cup.
I do like agreeing with you on stuff like this Hypo. Much better than the "my opinion is better than yours, ner, ner, ner, ner, ner, ner" bickering mentality of some on here.
