Latest England News - Allardyce Claims Narrow Win On Debut
England were nothing short of a disgrace as they limped out of Euro 2016 with a whimper and as a result it is all change at the top. Roy Hodgson resigned in the aftermath of another failure and Sam Allardyce is the new man in the hot seat and the latest to try and bring success back to the Three Lions.
The former Bolton, Newcastle and Sunderland Gaffer has finally got his chance in the big job but it won't be easy for him with qualifying for the 2018 World Cup set to get underway.
Allardyce will be looking to hit the ground running with the England Fixtures coming thick and fast as always but more than just qualifying for a major tournament, he will need to prove his team can cut it when they arrive on the big stage.

World Cup 2018 Odds
Defending champions Germany are the favourites to retain their trophy in the latest World Cup 2018 Odds. Joachim Low's men hoisted their fourth golden globe in Brazil, and will now be gunning to draw level with the Samba Kings (5 trophies) in four years time.
Meanwhile the usual candidates are in the mix for glory, including Brazil, Argentina and Spain. Alternatively Belgium and Colombia, who both impressed in Brazil, are definitely worth keeping an eye on, whereas England are further back in the betting.
