The World Cup 2018

[Phoenix07]

Croatia

Lovren

Loving Croatia. Beating England in 2007 3-2 at Wembley, denying them a spot at Euro 2008, and now ending their World Cup dreams.

England's coming home, they're coming. England's coming home.

Gutted for the team but ****ing LOL at the Ingerlund cunts.

[Charly]

****ing bland... I am not even upset.

The only player in the squad I would take to Liverpool is the keeper. I thought he looked solid. Not as sure about his distribution though.

Would have loved Trent playing a world cup final but I had reached saturation point of English media/commentator and fan drivel. They got lucky with the draw but were going to find a better team at some point.

Lovren in the World Cup Final

Was a colossus tonight took an unreasonable battering from Neville at Half time.

[Norbs]

Croatia were better than us without being particularly good themselves. They know how to manage a game though and we were shattered in the end. Well done England, did a lot better than I thought and overachieved at this tournament, despite a general lack of talent. Let's get the lads back and into the squad again ready for next season.

If Lovren wasn't playing for us already, we'd be crying out to sign him.

Absolute colossus.

The squad list is and was ****ing awful. Worst I can ever remember. Based on that, they did as well as could be expected, but were never going to be a good side.

So Harry Kane Big game player?

[Mr Darko]

Shouldn't have taken off Henderson - at least he keeps his unbeaten record as he was subbed before the goal

[Fredo]

Harry Bane is so overrated. Was anonymous all game.

[Leyton388]

I blame Sterling the T Rex running cunt.

Shouldn't have started Kane. The plan was the play over the Croatia midfield and it worked well first half, but depire Kane being on the field. He was totally unsuited to the strategy. Making him captain was an obvious error at the time and proved to be so. Southgate's rinse and repeat team selection, that was only just working against lesser sides, wasn't brave enough.
