I thought Trippier was having a decent tournament, definite starter for me. Could have possibly done slightly better with the attempted goal line clearance last night, but other than that he's been good.

hes been for me our best player. he can't help it thats hes not tall either aha.

stones, trippier, maguire, pickford and kane have been fantastic. the two centre backs in particular - everything is coming through them. its going to be a mad one on saturday in town.

not the end of the world though. If England make the semis that gives a fair amount of credibility back to the English national side, a big step forward if you will. most sides would of struggled with Colombia tonight because they were there to be physical, and they also have a bit of quality when willing to show it. Right direction for England and by the next world cup there could be some quality young midfielders to add to the likes of lane and sterling

And one young quality midfielder may be Phil Foden. :-)

What happens if it turns out Sweden can defend corners well and without fouling people?

 

[Bert Trautmanns Helemet]

England are odds on (17/20) to win in 90 minutes which is ridiculously short odds.
The bet has to be to lay them not to win and hope we win in extra time or pens.
