Gary Neville And Micah Richards Agree That England WON'T Win The World Cup In Qatar… But Name The 'Underrated' Player Who Must Be In The Squad

Gary Neville and Micah Richards have played down England's chances of winning the World Cup in Qatar.

Neville and Richards have gone head-to-head in a hilarious new episode of Agree To Disagree, in partnership with Sky Bet.

The pair clashed on a number of topics but were in full agreement when asked if England will win the tournament in Qatar, which gets underway in November.

Richards: "They got the semi-final of the World Cup, they got to the final of the Euros. Is this the time?"

Neville: "I just think France, Germany, Spain. You've got Brazil, Argentina coming into it… Senegal, all these countries that are fantastic."

Richards: "I still think that they're a couple of years away. [But] when the likes of [Jude] Bellingham get in the team…"
