The Official World Cup Russia 2018 General Thread on 10:12 - Jul 4 by KGriz16 | Won a bit of money on it too last night with that prediction. I'm not sure, depends, I just think England are so good going forward they've got plenty of attacking midfielders who're technically brilliant and athletic. They can go all the way if they wanted, and the 5 at the back system is really working for them. 1-0 England maybe, 1-1. It's hard to call. I can't see Sweden troubling them though because England have those three at the back and Sweden's strikers aren't up to much. What's your call? I do think England will go through again though. |
Fair call they didn’t create much. I reckon if you switched the keepers, Sweden would have won. Pickford would have saved both England goals if he was up the other end. Can’t see England getting past Croatia. Assuming Croatia beats Russia. | |

I don't think Welsh fans can complain about international sides fielding players from other nations who chose to switch because they aren't good enough to hold down a regular place at their birth team. | |

No, but you do know the difference between this Fernandes playing for Russia and some of Wales's squad don't you? | |

That Fernandes chose to play for a side who will actually qualify regularly for major tournaments? | |

Well he could have stayed Brazilian for that. You've obviously missed the point. | |

Why would they stay an extra day? They could save a fortune on one night's hotel stay - or even two nights if they left late on Saturday. Maybe they could ask for a late checkout on Saturday. | | | |

When the 4th placed team picks up £16.5m in prize money I don’t think that they are going to worry much about paying for 1 extra night in a hotel. I wouldn’t mind guessing that they will probably be spectators at the final. | | | |
The Official World Cup Russia 2018 General Thread on 14:22 - Jul 13 with 3203 views | Insolent_Minx | When Wales got to the semi-finals of the Euro Championships 2 years ago the media here didn't give them anything like the spotlight their progress deserved. Perhaps what you did back then was a bigger achievement than what the English just participated in, but the media here will always get carried away or lose rationality when it comes to the national squad making progress or picking up a few wins etc. For everyone else, you CAN now enjoy the final in peace. | | | |

England's rugby squad is dominated by Kiwis, Aussies, Boks & South Sea Islanders...there's barely any room left for an "Englishman"...from a population of 50 odd million too. No future for "English" rugby youngsters, bit like those young footballers that can't get near a Premier League first team. [Post edited 14 Jul 2018 14:39]
