Perry celebrates England's victory
England competitive captain Daniel Perry is happy his national side have nearly secured their place in next year's EuroCup 12 finals, after a comfortable 3-1 win in Bosnia-Hercegovina on Friday, after Austria and Wales could only draw 0-0.
England have won all their qualifiers so far, sitting on top of Group A with 28 points, and will secure qualification if they beat Austria on Tuesday, and Perry, 30, believes the defending European and World champions will be difficult to stop.
"Great stuff," said London Town defender Perry. "There's no stopping us. Everyone will find it tough.
"All the lads done well, especially CraiCo, and the manager's got the best out of us and it's just brilliant when you win with ease.
"Now we can look forward to the match against Austria at the Vodafone on Tuesday without any problems."
However, England do have one problem. Perry's team-mate, midfielder Garry Stratford limped off after 23 minutes with a sprained ankle, but England coach Marco Garibaldi said: "It is only a niggle.
"I'll give him a couple of days off, but he will be fit for the game against Austria."
On man-of-the-match Craig CraiCo, Perry said: "CraiCo's such a massive player for us. He's gotten better since he left London United for Spain (at Madrid Magic) and he's the absolute backbone of the England team.
"You saw him set up the goal for Macca (John Macdonald), as well as score the goal in the opening minute. He, for me, is still the greatest footballer in the world."
Striker Edward Redwood was happy to break his England duck - he hadn't scored since the Home Nations Championship against Wales in June, his longest wait without an England goal.
"I'm happy to be back in this sort of form after a torrid past few months," stated the Monsters striker, 25. "It's important we keep this going; we could be unstoppable in Russia next year. "
