Sterling seems to have stumbled into an odd situation where the Mail thinks he is Mugabe and the Guardian thinks he is Martin Luther King.
In reality of course he's just another footballer; often good, sometimes not.

He puts the Mug in Mugabe.
He was bobbins against Colombia, but a lot less bobbins than either Dele 'square root of fuck all' Alli or Messi Lingard.
If Alli isn't fit, and he doesn't look fit, then Loftus-Cheek should be the only change for Sweden.
It really feels like you're missing that player that will make passes that cut the defence so you are short of "stuck" in attacking from the wings.
Rashford > Sterling.
Vardy > Sterling
Injured Alli > Sterling
Just crept up on me that either Russia, Croatia, Sweden or England will be in the World Cup final.
Brazil-Belgium is on at 2am for me here in Taiwan. I don't think I'm going to be able to manage that and still be functional at the conference tomorrow...
I love this experience. It happens (to a lesser extent) in the tennis every now and then. When you get down to eight, or even sixteen players, and the whole draw completely wipes out on one side.Originally Posted by SincereTheRebel
And now it’s happening in an actual sport.
Russia to win the whole thing with a referee/VAR error in the final just to set the world aflame.
He really isn't. He's much better brought on as a sub, and that way you have him taking a penalty if needed and not Raheem (the horror).
With the way Sterling has been playing in the competition, England would be better off playing a random fan in his place.
If Rashford had been anything other than abysmal against Belgium he would have taken Sterlings place.
sterling was proper rubz in 2016 as well
2016 he was too nervous and just cut back and played simple passes, this time he's just holding onto the ball too long and trying to do too much. would love a proper direct left-footer playing there.
I’d be happy with an actual footballer, rather than an ‘athlete’.
Man up.
Anything's possible on 3 hours sleep. Not sustainable, but just crash the night after.
Sleep before, wake up at 2am, watch dee match, go back to sleep for a couple hours, profit!
If you ever wanted to watch a retard instruct an Oxbridge professor - there it is.
Was just an idea.
You sound insecure.
@bruhnaldo might have hit the nail on the head. I think the trick is that, whatever happens, I'm only watching two of the QFs. Doing that will definitely wipe me out early on the day after.
With all due respect to the participants though, it's harder to imagine England-Sweden being a stone-cold classic for the neutral.
It's the World Cup. It only happens every four years. You'll only see like 20 more of them in your lifetime. Get some adderall off some of your students or something.
It's also a weekend. What sort of conference runs on a weekend (unless you're organizing or something).
That's a very optimistic life expectancy you're giving him there.
Within his lifetime it'll probably go to every year and 128 teams.
I'm sure Ital's a healthy guy.
I imagine him as a big old fat bloke with a beard and glasses. Soz Ital mate.
You've got him living well into his hundreds. All the quinoa and smoothies in the world aren't getting a maths lecturer into triple figures.
We have one. He wasn't called up.
Who are you referencing? Wilshere? Lallana?
Jack Grealish, I'd imagine.
We’ve avoided Ross Barkley out shitting Sterling, that’s the main thing.
Btw I'm pretty proud of myself for being like a regular person by using 'who' instead of 'whom'.
*Her
Yeah, why people still confuse Ital for a bloke is beyond me.
We all know girls can't do maths.
Wait, women post here?
Only ItalAussie and Mantralux. Both ends of the spectrum, like.

Epilogue: I watched every QF other than Croatia-Russia. Which it seems was probably the best actual game. Figures.
Also, I'm quite fit and healthy for what it's worth.
