The last great world cup imo. I was 19 and spent the first 2 weeks of it on holiday in Turkey.

Kinda the one that got away if you ask me.
England could and should have done better in '98. Felt the Manager, formation and players just had the right balance... but oh well.

We played a flexible 4-4-2/3-5-2 iirc... Adams and Campbell, with Ince protecting/dropping back. Neville, Le Socks running the flanks. Midfield of Anderton and Beckham flanking Scholes, with Shearer and Owen up front.

So many "if only's" from that Argentina game. Simeone should have been carded for battering Beckham, but Becks was still young and stupid. Campbell scored if not for Shearer's elbow... sigh.
