Barcelona and France star Thierry Henry says only a lack of self-belief will stop England from winning the World Cup next year.

Henry told The Sun: "I've always said you guys have one of the best teams in the world.

"Just look at John Terry, Ashley Cole, Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard, Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand.

"They do it day-in, day-out in the league, in the Champions League, whenever they play. You have the players and you have a good team.

"Gerrard would have a shout to play in any team in the world.

"Lampard the same, Rooney the same, Terry the same, Ferdinand too.

"I could go through the whole squad and you have six or seven really top-class players."
