Rio Ferdinand believes England has the best chance of reaching the Euro 2024 final among all teams.
He views their remaining fixtures as an opportunity to go as far as possible, suggesting that England's side of the draw is easier than the other.
England will face Switzerland in the quarterfinals if they defeat Slovakia in the Round of 16 on Sunday evening.
A win against Switzerland would then pit them against either the Netherlands, Austria, Turkey, or Romania in the semifinals.
