World Cup 2018 | 11th July | SF: Croatia vs England Match Thread, KO 19:00 (BST)

[Don Karleone]

The winning goal.

Must be more pissed than I thought then. It wouldn't have gone to extra time without him, I know that much.

 

[Trevor Morley's Tache]

Do you not think Englands hoof ball over the top tactics had something to do with Kane's poor performance?

No.

 

[Pam]

Why do pundits say Pickford is good with his feet. All I see is him leathering the ball as far as possible with his left foot with no direction.

Mystifying.

 

[PannickAtTheDisco]

Think you are confusing two issues! And your comment about being pleased is pretty pathetic. I take it you are Jock with more than a few chips on the shoulder with that kind is attitude.

Nope, just a blue looking out for his own and with his priorities straight

 

[abu13]

I cant decide which camp in in at the moment.
Camp 1:
We did better than expected with a young squad still learning but lacking flair or.
Camp 2:
Fucked up. Again against the first decent team we played

 

[93.01]

Rashford and Lingard are shit. You can quote me on that.

Can't believe I'm gonna say this but lads there not shit, there just ridiculously overhyped. The criticism is to severe there above average young pros playing amongst world class players at club level.

 

[tommo74]

No mate we haven’t had a better England ‘team’ as results have shown, we’ve had better individuals and that’s why we haven’t even got close before this year.
I’m not daft at all, I watch and see something which hopefully will come to fruition. There’s plenty to improve on but I’m confident we’re moving in the right direction finally.

Do you not remember 1990 then?

 

[G-Star Medium Rare]

Shit, this means Ingerland play Belgium for 3rd place on Saturday. I hope none of the City players get picked for either team ( well maybe Delph for the last 10 minutes!)

 

[Sky Blue]

he has been quite good with his feet. a lot of the time there were no passes on though.

Disagree. Maybe I have been spoilt with Ederson though.

 

[The Light Was Yellow Sir]

Just checked the BBC “Rate the Players” app, and noticed that Jesse Lingard and Jordan Henderson were given higher ratings than Raheem Sterling. Obviously.

Does that not just demonstrate there are more rags and dippers than anyone else? On that basis, it can’t really be a surprise? The real surprise is that he’s scored higher than Rashford, although that probably won’t be true when all the piss heads get home and start voting!
