World Cup Semi-Final | Croatia v England

[Nigels Tackle]

For some reason I'm finding myself angry with all these glory hunting celebrities given us their 'Selfie', telling us all 'it's coming home'. Twats should shut the fuck up!

Anyway, still a little nervous and can't call it either way. They are strong through the middle and attack the ball well. Their defence is decent and they all pull together in the same direction, no individual glory; a little us. They like to defend deep and will rely on Rakatic and Gail Tyldsley to break quickly or to pass those balls out to either the wife or direct upfront.

We know our game and I hope we play to our strengths again. Southgate will have focused the team and will have been methodical with his set-up and tactics. We have a great chance and even if we don't make it, they've done us proud.

Come on England!!!

me too. far too many bandwagon jumpers...

Who the fuck gave ITV the coverage??


I've watched virtually every game of the tournament in my back garden courtesy of FS1 or TSN, but due to delay on Saturday night neighbours cheering goals as they went and my stream was a good minute behind!

Fuck got to put up with Hoddle inane wittering

[CTID Hants]

Great goal. What a ball that nearly was from Pickford to Sterling. Ederson esque

[PrezIke]

Not sure why the keeper didn't go full stretch. Odd one even if he thought it was over...too risky, even if want to avoid conceding a corner against England.

Something tells me that was part of the reasoning.

Fucking annoying bastards, you can tell the majority have never been to a match in their lives and just getting some Z Lister time.

However, it's got the country in a furore so let them enjoy it

[PrezIke]

Of course I am supporting for my brothers from the ol' mother

[Mase]

Wow England getting absolutely everything

[zuricity]

yellow card that ! Lovren

[Beefymcfc]

Interesting, no mention of a terrible miss from Kane, even though he was offside just like Raheem.

He's killing them at the moment, they don't like it, do they.

[bigblue]

Pickford looks like a grown up version of the kid from This is England

[Beefymcfc]

Why doesn't Lingard like passing to Sterling?

[bigblue]

linguard needs to play Raheem in there you greedy fuck

[PrezIke]

Another great ball there from Pickford against the high press.

I think Sterling's movement was not as good when Lingard was looking for him, perhaps, but Lingard also so much less dangerous running with the ball.

Raheems having a good day
