The Official World Cup 2018 Megathread

[AndyWolves]

That's a very soft free kick

 

[Dublin Drummer Wolf]

So at least 2 more games for England then

 

[nimrod]

Think that’s it. should be favourites in our semi.

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Now it is done. They aren't scoring 2.

Fucking hell. This is amazing.

This is fun- please take this with the tongue in cheek

Here are the star charts for Saturday

Good day for Ashley Young and Raheem Sterling. Sterling may even score (choke)
Another poor day for Kyle Walker- the stars dont like him this week.
Granquist may have an injury?
Pickford needs to beware of slips trips and falls over the next three days, so it may be a slip in the match or a pre game injury? Either way Jordan, check your studs. No Robinson moments either

Prediction is 3 goals, but it was miles out in the last game. Also doesnt say which way which doesnt help.

Runes favour"the celts" but given that Sweden and England could both be described as having viking/ celtic routes I dont know what that means!

Better discipline this match from both sides.

Cyber soothsaying over!

Personally , its coming home.

Young and Sterling have their best games

No issues for walker or Granquist

2 goals not 3
Better discipline
England win
England have now done better than expected ( page 3)
overall the soothsaying not bad then!

This is a very good afternoon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Tredman]

That was easy

 

[YoungWolf]

Fantastic. Best performance overall from this side. Not a bad performance from anyone

[playtheace]

That was easy

Twas like an half decent PL team against a perennial Championship team.
Still think we have the players to play better to be honest, if I'm being picky.

 

[AndyWolves]

An enjoyable afternoon!

 

[Derby Wolf]

Unreal.

I just can't reconcile the current team with that I watched against Slovenia in qualifying. They were devoid of anything

Funny in the aftermath of that game Southgate said we won't become Spain overnight, given it a good go though!

 

[Boozad]

Will enjoy Croatia v Russia even more now, I hope the Russians win.

 

[Boozad]

And I seriously hope Pickford has a dip in form between next Sunday and August 11th!

 

[Parkins left foot]

And I seriously hope Pickford has a dip in form between next Sunday and August 11th!

I'll give him to the 1st August then falls of a cliff (a metaphorical one only as have no wish to cause him real harm)

 

[Paddingtonwolf]

Honestly the way this team plays I think they can give ANYONE a game in the semi-final. Wow.

1990 seems so long ago now, and England are back at the top table at the business end of a tournament. Amazing scenes.

 

[Langers]

Fantastic game management today. Thought we were well drilled and professional against a side who had no spark whatsoever.

Comfortable performance, confident performance and who knows - another test awaits but it's not one we can't pass.

Pickford, Trippier, Maguire all superb.

Cyber the last time England lost a World Cup Quarter final was on a Saturday afternoon. As we play Sweden on Saturday afternoon should I be worried?

No

Me too but either way I hope for goals yellow cards and extra time.
