as a team yes. hence why they beat England at Euro 2016

Ireland a better team than Italy? Wales a better team than Belgium? France a better team than Germany? Portugal better than France? 

Don't think any of the above, including Iceland over England, are true IMO.

I wouldn't call Iceland a better team.  But I would say they have a better team spirit.  More of a togetherness.  They're more OF a team.  They're playing to a level far greater than the sum of their own parts, where England are not.  England is still a collection of egotistical individuals.  England would beat Iceland probably 7 times out of 10, but looking at both sides on paper, that should really be 10 times out of 10.  England need to look at why that's not the case.

So where I'd meet @Zatman & @kurtsimonw in the middle is by saying that Iceland are doing a whole lot more with what's at their disposal at the moment than England are with what's at theirs.
