I sure as hell hope England gets a hiding tonight, their antics against Colombia were unbearable, full cheating mode by the match officials to give them an ill deserved win.

I'm no England fan but the Colombians were dirty as hell.
However the hypocrisy by the English football media is unbearable - they make such an ordeal of playacting yet Henderson (who's my club captain no less) goes down like a sniper victim when one of their defenders brushes him with his head.

The wingback formation allows width and attacking prowess but often leaves the defense weak on the wings I hope Sweden exploit and hit 4-5 goals

Hardly any pressing, no prolonged spell in possession, no chances created.
Seems like England are waiting for another flukey set piece goal.

Most likely England will host 2030 WC - it’s Europe’s turn and now not many European countries can host a 48 team WC. Since England hosted, Germany has hosted twice; France, Italy, Spain, Russia once. It’s going to be England or joint hosting by Turkey/Greece; Holland/Denmark/Belgium - most likely England & rightly so.

-
7th July 2018, 21:25 #39
England seem comfortable, Sweden look very short on ideas. England need a second goal early in the latter half however, otherwise Sweden will push them deeper and deeper and create pressure, which is what eventually caused England to unravel against Colombia.
Sterling has looked the liveliest England player in this game, but he screwed up at the end of the half and should have scored.
Ashley Young is having his best game of the tournament so far.

Alli is having his game of the tournament. Finally fulfilling his potential at international level. Dissapointing show from Sweden today. Pickford had the most crucial save of the game, may be WC for England.

Just how I like it
Beyond the first 25/30 min or so the action has improved, but we can't expect them to take too many risks in open play when they just don't have the natural ability of other teams; set pieces are their strengths and the goal is to win by any means necessary even if it is ugly.
If I can look past my hate for Liverpool and cheer on Henderson there you can support England to
Ah, so this is what it feels like

Congrats to all English fans - dominating, impressive performance to win by clear margin against another very good European side. They have really surprised me today - never looked like losing today.
Looks like old enemies might meet again in finals & no new champions😩

Looking forward to the game. Be interested to see who we play.
Would prefer to play Russia but whoever we get it won't be an easy game. Croatia are favourites for this game due to their attacking quality but Russia with home advantage and their spirit, they won't be easy to beat. Croatia should win if they take the lead.

A brilliant win for England making the semifinals!
Sweden's tactics are fine unless they go behind but credit to Harry Maguire for an oustanding header. From then on Sweden were lost until the last 10 mins when they created a few chances.
The best game England have played in this World Cup.

Croatia if they play well are a brilliant team and should win this one.

Read Bayern is interested, but he'll have to be on bench at least for 2 more years, Neuer is only 32. Apart from that who else among big guns - Juve, Dortmund, but their domestic resources are too good to block one foreign spot. Only place I see (as a promotion) is Liverpool, but Everton might not allow him to cross the Stanley Park. May be, if DDG leaves, JoMou might call him.

Poor quality from both sides so far, neither willing to up the pace.
Russia will be happy for penalties again even though they are up against a very good keeper this time.

Don't get the hate for England's campaign. They won when they've had which more than can be said for the big guns in the tournament. It's been a fantastic tournament full of great goals and upsets. Regardless of who you beat a semi final in a major tournament is a very good achievement.
