World Cup 2018 | 24th June | England vs Panama Match Thread, KO 13:00 (BST)

Against Belgium? Probably if the other groups go the way I expect - Senegal/Japan probably follwed by Mexico or Switzerland in the QF sounds great.
The good news is by the time we play our final game we will know what is the best root to progress. We're top of the group by yellow cards at the moment.

Nice !

Not arsed pal to be honest just pointing out it was panamas first ever goal at the world cup and Tunisia ; people need to calm down

Disrespectful bastard. Don't you know it's coming home?

In all seriousness, we do look good. Although the opposition has been lacklustre thus far.

Tougher challenges ahead but I don't think England could be much happier with the way the tournament has gone so far.

Don't have a problem with people enjoying the moment either. No point being miserable and reigning it in until you're knocked out.

Honestly pal in my 50's now seen it all before I was this giddy about England in my teens:)

I think we should give this England side a break. We have played lots of poor sides over the years in the finals of tournaments but never been five up at halftime.

Be happy if we get our players back injury free tbh.

We have a chance but I'm not getting my hopes up just yet.

The same fans who are bleating about how well England have done, will be the same ones unfairly ripping individuals and the team apart if we dare lose to fairly decent opposition. Perspective helps cushion the blow of what inevitably will come.

Anybody can win 6-1 against third rate, shit opponents.
Ask Fergie.....

Chris (dave) Smalling has been coaching the Panamanian defenders how to defend corners.

A nation of moaners, desperate to scapegoat individuals, and backed by a media for whom devastation sells papers. Enjoying a good win, without getting carried away, is surely allowed?

Great post
