Do not believe lads, do not believe.
Do not believe lads, do not believe.
Here we go then Eric
It's 1000% coming home lads. 50-0 in the final against Brazil. Nothing can possibly go wrong now.
What a fucking save.
Dier the hero.
Fuck me. Fuhuhuhuck me.
It’s coming home, innit.
That was an absolutely shocking peno and Ospina let it through him.
YES come on you beauties.
That’s awful from Ospina
It's coming home!
That was a really weak hand from Ospina.
Ospina went the right way on all penalties.
Each round we advance, Yev's rage intensifies.
That was an actual good shootout.
Ospina went for the right corner for all of them, but he's a bit too short for how good the penalties were.
Decent 'keeper would have saved that.
What race is Kieran Trippier meant to be?
Well then. Rather be knocked out by England - even if its full of cunts like Lingard - than Colombia. Knowing England or Sweden will be in the Semis is pretty
Yes lads, we scraped through! World Cup Runners Up nailed on now
When Lolspina saved that I thought they were done.
Lingard's not a cunt
Fair play to Pickford, that was an epic strong hand.
Thank fuck.
Is someone beating up Ian Wright in the studio?
So who's the favorite from that side now? Croatia? Lol.
This might come as a surprise, but I think we'll play well against Sweden.
These shithouse south American cheating teams are hard to play against. Against Sweden we'll see if England are a half decent team or not.
Sweden is more like against like. Both honest, Protestant nations. We have by far the superior individuals so we have to be favourites.
It's going to be so great & not at all suspicious when Russia win the whole thing.
We need to resolve the Sterling problem, but other than that I can see us doing ok.
It's imperative we start creating chances for Harry Kane though, as was said upthread, there won't be a shitter World Cup haul of 6 goals than his, even Oleg Salenko's. He could have had about 10 by now had we done.
Binning off Sterling should help, and Alli too if it's not fit, which he manifestly isn't.
Is this lad retarded or something?
Right. I'm off to shop lads. Anyone want anything?
It's on its way home ffs!
Was hoping we would get knocked out for the Yev breakdown and so that everything I see or listen to on the World Cup doesn’t start with “first let’s talk about England.” Even when they aren’t due to play for 4 days.
That felt so good.
Kane's going to do his cruciates in the semi and Welbeck's going to net the winner in the final.
I’m happy for you guys.
I’d also like to say, fuck off Yevrah.
Sterling was decent enough today. At least and bringing the ball forward and relieving pressure. He needs to know when to drop it off to someone else. Harry's goal tally has been marvelous because nobody seems to know how to mark him. He doesn't need to get on the end of things. He just needs to be manhandled and then take the spot kick. Still, he links up with the midfield enough it would be nice to see someone return the favour.
I think our corner routine was a bit iffy. If we don't connect with it, we've got two of our back three in the box. They've got the pace to get back but it's rife to be countered. And Alli's knackered, aye.

What a result finishing second in the group has turned out to be, it's hard not to get excited right now.
Sweden stand in the way of England and a place in a world cup semi final. Unbelievable.
We're now 2 for 6 in penalty shootouts in major tournaments. That's only one away from .500 ball. Reversion to the mean.
that Pickford save though
