Croatia and Belgium have impressed, wouldn't be surprised if they do better than my bracket says.

Occult - 5
Qwerty - 7
Rubbers - 6
Goofle- 5
Eric- 7

Cheers Trolls :cool:

Am a bit nervous just hope the team gives their all.

England have achieved 'par' and it's not been boring that's all I can ask for.

Can somebody explain to me why? He does nothing.

Maybe today will be his breakthrough game...

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 07:23 AM

he has a positive reputation and benefited from playing on the best passing team in the premier league. same thing as Jesus tbh. hard to not score goals with that midfield.

we’re seeing now how raw Jesus still is (didnt score a goal at all this tournament) and how Sterling hasn’t came nearly as far as people are giving him credit for.

leaving Rashers and Vardy both on the bench in favor of playing him is the only thing I would criticize Southgate for so far.

grindy 07-07-2018 07:25 AM

Raw Jesus would be a good band name.

Cuthbert 07-07-2018 07:42 AM

Quite hyped here lads. Been drinking tea all morning with Jerusalem on repeat. Got some pop music on now. Playlist almost went to ABBA but I clicked just in time.

Come on England.

My pre match ritual Trolls.

Tea and Jerusalem.

Trollheart 07-07-2018 08:13 AM

Just wondering, do you stand for the national anthem, Fluff?

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 08:15 AM

dele is looking so poor :(

not sure what is happening with him

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 08:20 AM

No, I don't like the song (we don't actually have a national anthem we just use GSTQ as it's the national anthem of the UK). But even if I liked the song I wouldn't anyway. Chairs are comfortable.

England's anthem should be Jerusalem I think.

Always thought this would be a good contender:

Trollheart 07-07-2018 08:30 AM

Oh what a goal! Maguire puts England ahead! :tramp:

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 08:31 AM

very well done

Cuthbert 07-07-2018 08:33 AM

:cool:

Come on lads.

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 08:44 AM

offside or not that is absolutely dreadful finishing by sterling

messi lingard holding it down in mid though :cool:

Trollheart 07-07-2018 08:45 AM

Should be three up by now. :yikes:

Cuthbert 07-07-2018 08:46 AM

What the hell is wrong with Sterling?

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 08:47 AM

shame because he’s making nice runs, just totally ****ing useless when it comes to finishing. truly embarrassing from a professional.

He's been devalued. :D
They need him off in the second half. He's spurning chances and England can't afford to keep doing that. Should be at least two to the good by now.

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 09:03 AM

one of my coworkers emailed me asking for a link to the game :D

i should be sponsored by soccer streams

Cuthbert 07-07-2018 09:05 AM

Need the second goal, really don't want to go to the last ten minutes at 1-0.

Come on Sir Harry.

Trollheart 07-07-2018 09:15 AM

And there's the second. Ya needed that.

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 09:16 AM

messi lingard >>>>>>

what a ball

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 09:17 AM

if england can continue to play like they have been this half it will be coming home

Cuthbert 07-07-2018 09:17 AM

I can't believe this.

England battering them.

This is top notch stuff.

Trollheart 07-07-2018 09:19 AM

Gr8 save by Pickford! :clap: Stopped the Swedes getting back into it at a crucial time.
#ItsComingHome

Trollheart 07-07-2018 09:34 AM

What's the chant (to the tune of EWF's "September")?

Trollheart 07-07-2018 09:52 AM

Well done England. A deserved victory. Sweden were ****.

Akai 07-07-2018 09:53 AM

Domination throughout, top form today.

Couldn't be more proud of the lads in red.

Ol’ Qwerty Bastard 07-07-2018 09:53 AM

‘grats lads.

Mourinho better be dialing up his phone to enquire on Trippier ASAP.

Cuthbert 07-07-2018 09:55 AM

Well done to our team.

They've been superb.

We play again on Wednesday in the SEMI FINAL OF THE WORLD CUP.
