Town this heavyweight types who have been swaggering around offering to do battle with Gentle Willie Pastrano, there is no need to emigrate.

The They Can Bring

World Cup Home

By TOM FINNEY

London.

I think 1958 is going to be one of the most memorable years in the history of football. This is the year when I think the world will be acclaiming England as world champions. Yes, if we get the run of the ball, I honestly believe England have the players to win the World Cup.

This is the year when bold new plana are envisaged-a New Deal for the players; perhaps a percentage of transfer fees for them; rewards for the one-club man in the way of extra benefits, And, above all, 1968 will, I think, provide for us a host of glittering new stars. I think we saw signs of that in the closing months of 1957.
