Manchester City star John Stones has warned that England’s upcoming quarter-final clash with Sweden is not to be taken lightly, saying their team is full of quality players.

The Three Lions face Sweden on Saturday, a nation who England have often struggled against in the past, and it’s fair to say that the public’s confidence is very high going into the game.

England are the highest ranked team on their side of the route to the final, and many would be foolish enough to think their pathway is easy enough to merit a place in the final without any major stumbling blocks.

However, as Colombia showed on Tuesday, there are no easy games at the World Cup and Sweden are certainly no pushovers. If you fancy checking the odds for England to go the whole way and win the World Cup this summer, there’s plenty of great offers around and more on http://perfectbettingonline.co.uk/.

Stones, who has been a star for England at the tournament so far, has echoed just that – saying that the players are prepared for a tense, tight outing against familiar opponents.

“I think if you say it’s an easy game in the quarter-final of a World Cup then you are pretty stupid to say that. They’ve got a lot of quality,” said Stones via ITV.

“We know what we’re up against. Sometimes these teams can throw you, they can go kind of under the radar, but there is no question they are a good team, they wouldn’t be where they are if they weren’t.”
