May have to revise my original scoreline because this could be a lot more than 2-1. No reason why England can't score 3 or 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2018 Why didnt Kane make any attempt to get back onside after that pass went straight to Sterling? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was expecting Sterling to have a crack at it but with his confidence it's no surprise he opted for the pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 11, 2018 We need another before half time. We've had the lions share but we need an end product. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It'll be interesting to see what happens if Croatia go in at half-time only 1-0 down. They've not really done much in the first half. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'd like to see them get rid of the ball quicker around the box. It's only a matter of time before Pickford or a defender gets caught out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

All it takes is one corner or one freekick and Croatia are back in it. Still think they'll close this game out in the second half and there are some good options on the bench. One thing though, they've got to stop all these risky back passes. Don't like them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2018 I think I've worked out the difference between this tournament and previous ones. That damn band has gone. That stupid fucking brass band playing the exact same tune for 90 mins, droning on and on, sowing nervousness and misery. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They instilled confidence and there's no way that they would ever make one miserable! Such a pleasant sound. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted July 11, 2018 I have heard the drones of The Great Escape at times during this tournament so I think the band are still there, they've just thankfully been drowned out most of the time. England need to get another, they can't rue those missed chances and let Croatia get back into it. Sterling should get in behind more in the second half so England should have more opportunities but I think they definitely need to put another one away.

I think they'll get another at around the hour mark. Croatia have started the second half well, though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2018 This is getting a bit like wanting Brazil to go out because of Neymar. I now want Croatia out because of Lovren Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted July 11, 2018 A bit of a lull in this second half. Croatia seem to have more of the ball with England looking to get them on the break...ish. Croatia just look knackered. I think those extra times are taking their toll. Plus, there's no real pace in their side. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
