If you want to talk about history of choking, the team that everyone thinks is going to win, SPAIN, are the greatest chokers the World Cup has ever known. But the same theory goes, I think they have a team that is an order of magnitude stronger than England.
If England were to go up against Spain at some point, I have little doubt that the tandem of Villa and Torres being fed by Iniesta and Xabi would tear England's midfield and defence into tiny bits.

Spain's choking reputation doesn't really last when it's been so recently disproven. They carried that monkey on their backs for a long time, but it's pretty much been shaken now. The same can't be said for the Dutch or English.
