Pickford looks a really good and confident keeper

If he was Spanish and had he been named De Gay, he'd be rated as the best GK in the world tbh

FFS Kane.

Feel like we are going to regret not getting a 2nd as Modric hasn't been in the game and you know he eventually will.

Yet again a semi could be decided by a set piece... although there are quite many chances in this game and generally both teams attack so thats much better to watch.

Calma

It's a typical Balkan team choking in a big game. Nothing to see here

Its coming home

by Sina Wed Jul 11, 2018 3:51 pm

Desperate for Sterling to score
Too much pressure on him

Kane da fraud would score those vs Arsenal ffs

Easy Croatia win , someone wrote....
England is deserving and they have to regret for being only 1-0
Appreciated England 1st half. Played really as squad. You can't say same for Croatia. Here you notice really the great Southgate job made so far. It wasn't just because of Colombia or Sweden

Think he might, his pace looks like it's causing them problems.

Hasn't really been on show so far because other teams have defended deeper.

You can't blame me for being concerned tbf.

croatia are
1. having huge problems with englands pace.
2. their fullbacks have tons of space but have horrible end product
3. modric/rakitic are playing way too deep. it's allowing england to dominate their midfield.

bad coaching all around

by farfan Wed Jul 11, 2018 3:55 pm

Why is Modric playing that deep? ridiculous decision to play him there.
