I'm hoping age will be on our side, we have a team that have played less regular season football and less tournament football (Croatia looked dead on their feet during the last few minutes of last night).
If we can keep a high tempo we will break them down, it'll be close though.

I'm not putting my predicted score in here, superstition and all that, we are going well so far.

Resting our players for the game v Belgium may turn out to be a benefit, I think Croatia have played their better players most of the time and their last 2 matches have gone to extra time.
Alli was quite poor especially the first half, we will need somebody stronger like RLC to combat that midfield

As I’ve said before it’s all done and dusted .
My mate in London has a corgi and he gets it cut in a dog groomers In Victoria , he was In there in Maywearing his Stoke shirt when a elderly lady came in with a load of corgis . She said to him is that a football shirt he said yes as she said do you know Garth Southgan he said no and she said you should he is going to be a knight in the New Years honours list I’ve just it signed Agreed with Vlad this morning we’d win the World Cup to shut that loud mouthed yank up , bald said you bring the 6 footers ans sort out oaods of corners and penalties For you.
He said can you kill gravity crocodiles she said young man some things are just too much even for the queen , so I gave that job to a bloke called Tony scholes , like my eldest he’s fucking clueless and fucked it up .
And fir the doubters How do yiu ive known since before a ball was kicked England will indeed destroy Croatia .

Croatia looked ok incisive in small parts against Russia but overall they didnt dominate the game at all.
Apart from Modric they dont have such a great team.
England win in normal time
ITS COMING HOME

I must be the only person on the planet who thinks England still haven't played well this tournament. During a world cup you have to step up like Belgium did V Brazil. Hopefully we can do this V Croatia. I still think we are carrying a few players and they should be replaced. Okay he scored but Dele has been awful all world cup and Linguard as well doing nothing. Midfield is where this game will be won and lost. Your comment about lingaard suggests to me you are not watching the games properly. Try to pay more attention!

Can't have Ali in the team again Know he scored, but that was all about Lingard's sublime cross He was a complete passenger - in fact, worse, with some shockingly bad passing and poor judgement Midfield will be key too, as that's Croatia's strength with Rakitic, Modric and Perisic We have Henderson - who has been fantastic - as has Lingard - but he is not tenacious. Dier is not great, but will at least defend. RFC has the talent to do the job next to Henderston, but its asking a huge amount of the lad.

Consolation is that the Croatian players are thicker than our players. Apparently two of their players have made a video mocking Russia and voicing support for Ukraine. Way to get the Russian fans on your side on Wednesday fellas. If it's true, whilst they might not support us, expect a howling tirade of anti Croat abuse from the Russians in the crowd.

I used to think Modric was crap but he's been outstanding this WC, skill,craft,speed and stamina, not bad for a little 'un.

There is no blue on the England flag. In fact, the only blue on the England strip should be the lions in the badge - nothing else. Actually, our first kit should be red top and white shorts, and the second strip the reverse of that. And don't get me started on the visibilty, or lack thereof, of the star above the badge on these shirts. Whoever thought it a good idea to have a white star on a white shirt and a red star on a red shirt deserves a fucking beating.

Midfield is where this game will be won and lost. You don't have to play well. You just have to play well enough - not necessarily even better than your opponents - and hope that you have a bit of luck. Look at Portugal in Euro 2016. I will raise you Greece in the euros
