I maybe underestimating the impact but surely the near week off is enough to recover no? I don't think that impacts the game too much.

They played Sat so thats been three days rest before todays game? Not a lot at all and hopefully its enough for a fair contest. Hopefully not another cautious game where one tries to score a goal and protect it, or even just wait for ET and pens, although its common in these stages...

Gonna be interesting to watch where Croatia should be better in midfield but overall England should be better in attack, cant wait Very Happy

Obviously Unique skipped that essential International history class where quite a few of the former colonies actually took quite a liking for things UK which includes supporting their teams. But it's ok, not everyone is cut out for things like school and education.

FOOTBALL IS COMING HOME.

by Jay29 Wed Jul 11, 2018 5:58 pm

Teams:

Pickford; Walker, Stones, Maguire; Trippier, Lingard, Henderson, Alli, Young; Sterling, Kane

Subasic; Vrsaljko, Vida, Lovren, Strinic; Modric, Brozovic, Rakitic; Perisic, Mandzukic, Rebic

England unchanged as expected. Croatia bringing in Brozovic for Kramaric to beef up their midfield and allow Modric and Rakitic to do more damage.

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed Jul 11, 2018 6:01 pm

Inter legend Brozovic playing :facepalm:

Been a good run, we don't stand a chance now sadly Sad

Most people considered Colombia the favourite (inb4 poll) and this thread definitely considers Croatia the favourite.

Not saying they are wrong but we definitely haven't been the favourites.

No. Just no.

You can say no all you want but the posts in that thread says otherwise.

I liked the cocky Great leader much better than the depressing realist one.

I haven't been cocky at all lol, I've been saying all along Croatia could very easily win.

I was just saying that I believed people were underrating some of our players and overrating some Croatian players.

I never said we'd definitely win or they are trash or anything like that.

It is standard GL to ignore that to suit their narratives though hmm

That's what they did, They came and told their colonies for 200 years how Britain is greatest and better than everyone. Now they cry about immigration from their ex colonies lmfao same for France.

Anyways, it's coming home.

Henderson ran 2kms extra compared to everyone last game @CBarca @Firenze

Also rg isn't it 5 days now for the site main page. I'd change it to avoid GL gods wrath.

Best midfielder in the world tbh, utter disrespectful from Klopp to think about replacing him with some Ligue UNEEE fraud imo.

That doesn't mean you make a Harry Maguire rendition of Will Griggs is on fire ffs. My ears are still bleeding from it.

to the members of GL. The game's afoot; follow your colonial leaders into battle: and upon this charge, cry--God for sir Harry kane! England and Saint George!
cheers

by Great Leader Sprucenuce Wed Jul 11, 2018 6:38 pm

If Kane scores in a win we need to forget about Saint George and have Saint Harry instead.

Two of the biggest reasons to cheer against England tonight

UK is no longer anyone's boss unless it's Scotland but yeah, wouldn't mind an England win. Don't mind I really also wanna see Modric in the final. This actually works out for me come to think of it.

England win, lads like Mole, Firenze, RG, Jay get to see their country in a final for the first time in their respective lives. Croatia win and Modric gets to one up the class of 98 in France.

National Centre of Domestic Violence report that domestic violence in England increases by 26% when England play in the world cup. The number increases even further when they lose.

"If England get beaten, so will she"
