Sweden vs England (QF) - 15:00 - 07/07/2018

[FabricLiveBaby!]

England are rattled IMO.

 

[Lord Camomile]

He's a bt like Forrest Gump in an England shirt sometimes . He just keeps running...

Man after my own heart

 

[The39thStep]

England are rattled IMO.

By what?

 

[Lord Camomile]

Almost close there

Excellent, we're getting close to being close. Only a matter of time now, boys!

 

[QueenOfGoths]

Why are they not putting it in the box?

 

[campanula]

are they allergic to the goal

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

By what?

The prospect of losing.

 

[blairsh]

Christ.

 

[campanula]

O ffs

 

[Lord Camomile]

Again, he had two or three or options and didn't know what to do. C'mon, lad, pick it up.

 

[Mr.Bishie]

There’s more creativity under my toe nails.

 

[The39thStep]

The prospect of losing.

Both sides will be cautious , big stake game.

 

[ddraig]

Cmmmmmmon Sweden!!

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

None of these goal attempts scream "commitment" do they.

Bit like watching them try and score with a slightly deflated balloon.

 

[imposs1904]

Sweden are super dull but maddeningly effective. Boringball

Yep, that's the name of the game.

 

[Lord Camomile]

I understand being cautious, but when you're on the edge of the box, do something!

 

[The39thStep]

There’s more creativity under my toe nails.

Perhaps how's the time for a quick manicure.Personal hygiene might be unfashionable in some circles but it still counts for something in my book

 

[ska invita]

I think this is much better than the game against Colombia... Lots of moves and space on goal, good possession, pressing and dispossessing . Feeling very hopeful

 

[FabricLiveBaby!]

Both sides will be cautious , big stake game.

There's caution, and there's dread.

It's like they're allergic to running or something

 

[campanula]

dele alli get a grip

 

[imposs1904]

Both sides will be cautious , big stake game.

the winner takes it all

 

[Spymaster]

There’s more creativity under my toe nails.

Talking about stuff under people's toenails, here's Thragon ...

Cmmmmmmon Sweden!!

You took your time.

 

[DexterTCN]

My daughter just told me that apparently the ref is a multi-millionaire. Owns some supermarkets.

That's how interesting this game is so far.

 

[campanula]

sweden have not been scintillating

 

[The39thStep]

Dele Alli is a bit of an enigma isn't he? I think he's superb for Spurs but I think he's been very mediocre in this World Cup.

 

[J Ed]

Sweden deserve to lose just because of how boring they are.

 

[campanula]

high press (where is it?)

 

[smmudge]

No, which is unusual, because the fonts have generally been amongst the highlights of this tournament.


And, no, that isn't sarcasm, I do actually mean it.

I've found pretty much all the fonts really hard to read (and I'm not dyslexic, I can only imagine it must be much worse if you're dyslexic).

 

[Lord Camomile]

Last game they wouldn't pass to Young (which they are doing now), this game they won't pass to Lingard.

 

[imposs1904]

Dele Alli is a bit of an enigma isn't he? I think he's superb for Spurs but I think he's been very mediocre in this World Cup.

It's not just for England. He really hasn't had a good second half of the season.
