The English tabloid press seems to know nothing about football and panders to narratives (i.e cheating foreigners). They also believe that to be patriotic is to overrate the squad. One of them reported on Messi's 8 goals in 3 games as "Rooney might face competition for his place a best player in the world at this years world cup".

Something bugs me about International competitions and England.
