World Cup 2018

I'm sure, but in a totally different era of football, I can never say he was definitely better than say, Zidane for example. I can only say that I witnessed Zidane and he was incredible. Comparing players of different eras is a whole other kettle of fish anyway. The game was completely different 50 years ago.

Imo and being around to see both I'd say much better than Zidane. For me the most talented footballers ever have been George Best, Pale and Messi closely followed by Renaldo

Lovren could be a big player for England tonight.

Golf club packed. Pubs packed.Not a person on the street and it's almost like Christmas Day with how quiet everything is. The build up is on and let's hope they go out today, play with freedom and belief and come off heroes

 

[Dando]

That’ll do

 

[Imurg]

Boom!

 

[Kellfire]

Yeeeaaaaaaaa!

 

[Slime]

Oooh, Kane misses a really good chance.

 

[USER1999]

Oooh, Kane misses a really good chance.

Burn him!

 

[pendodave]

We've missed a few good chances to counter with our choices or execution. Hope we don't regret it...

They look dangerous down their right

 

[Beezerk]

Burn him!

Get Vardy on.

Ps holy crap.

 

[pendodave]

And again...

 

[HomerJSimpson]

Couple of good chances gone begging now. We need another goal but creating plenty. They are hating our pace going forward

 

[Pin-seeker]

Alli played very well that half.

 

[Fish]

Lovren is a nasty piece of work, very unlikeable. Comes across as a right gobshite as well, he should be on a yellow already but I’d love to see him get a red 😜

 

[Kellfire]

The back three are taking too many chances but overall comfortable. The midfield stars in Croatia are being kept quiet.

 

[shortgame]

When was the last time we had an England team who looked so organised, competent, confident, dangerous and enterprising?

Italia 90?

 

[Lord Tyrion]

Vardy and Rashford must be busting to get on. Their defence lacks pace and is there to be taken.

1996 under El Tel.

 

[Kellfire]

God these centre backs would take years off your life. DEFEND!
