By Laboured Go To PostJust searched it. People who brought up Croatian tiredness before the game: Luka Modric, Zlatko Dalic and Diego Forlan.Still Ingurlanders were going on about "easy side of the draw", eventually that over confidence was going to catch up to them.
Also found one betting article in The Sun which I'm sure is what Modric had read and is referring to lol.
So, like I said, stupid cunt.
It was easier though. Let's be clear here: if we'd have come up against Brazil we would not have made it to the semis.

Croatia have been pretty lucky this tournament.
Runs out against France though. Will be happy for Pogba as he's been very good this tournament.
Player of the tournament? Mbappe, Modric or Kante for me.

By HasphatsAnts Go To PostYou need luck to win knockout tournaments, i thought everybody knew this but apparently not.
I'm totally ok with my team cheaping its way through easy opponents for as long as possible. United have won plenty of trophies off the back of this.
By FermentedFungi Go To PostModric learned from that last world cup defeat to Mexico in group stage. Stay humble 😎
That guy should have stayed humble himself could have had a chance at being world champion. Now he looks like a brat.
Youll be alright England.
By bud Go To Postalways thought cavalo was an insulti would never insult the biggest Arsenal #ITK m8
for a long time i was thinking "pele is such a nice lad how is he throwing around these insults so casually on an almost daily basis"
then i learned that it means horse
By Laboured Go To PostFeels weird we'll still be playing on Saturday. Hopefully Kane can confirm the golden boot at least. Doubt we'll beat Belgium tho.You think Kane will even play? With how little he's run in the knockout stages he must be carrying an injury.
By Plasma Go To PostYou think Kane will even play? With how little he's run in the knockout stages he must be carrying an injury.Time to unleash Dat Guy.
By Xpike Go To Postit's hilarious how England and Belgium met twice and both times it was a meaningless matchthird spot is not meaningless.
anyone that says this deserves a spanking.
By Plasma Go To PostYou think Kane will even play? With how little he's run in the knockout stages he must be carrying an injury.Think he will. At least to cement top scorer.
Southgate will acquiesce.
By Freewheelin Go To PostHas Welbeck even had a minute in this World Cup so far?His running would have been great at least in the later stages once Sterling was off and once Alli became a statue.
Have to hope Southgate will try and learn from this.
By Plasma Go To PostPunishment for not reaching the final.Good post. I'd like this if it were a tweet.
I assume Belgium and England will make pretty wholesale changes but a lot of the big names will still start. I think there's zero chance Kane doesn't. He is obsessed with padding his stats so I'd be shocked if he missed out on a chance to get more goals.
Think that's a bit harsh on Henderson, he was clearly told to hit it early into the channels, tbh he should barely have to look as soon as he shapes to hit it, sterling and Co will have been told to be on their bike.
Sure he could have calmed and controlled the game but probably thought that's not what I was told to do

Would be completely different if Kane scored his chance/passed to Sterling.
The 2nd miss was so bad. Morata-esque

Considering the fact that people constantly say “Harry Kane is England’s only world class player” he sure did a bang-up job living up to the title over the tournament.
By Killer7 Go To PostWould be completely different if Kane scored his chance/passed to Sterling.Again, it wouldn't have counted either way.

By batong Go To PostAgain, it wouldn't have counted either way.It would have. He was onside, regardless of what the lino said, VAR would have allowed it.
By JesalR Go To PostIt would have. He was onside, regardless of what the lino said, VAR would have allowed it.He raised his flag because the ball left the field of play not for the offside surely, unless I am misremembering.
By Eternity Go To PostHe raised his flag because the ball left the field of play not for the offside surely, unless I am misremembering.Then it still would have counted if Kane had squared the original and let Sterling score

No it was confirmed for offside but Jes is correct.
Think that's a legit sitter, the proximity to the touchline is pretty meaningless that close to goal
Why he's smashed it as hard and low as he can is beyond me
Can tell from the descriptions of the Second Captains podcasts I've yet to catch up with that Ken is doing to do my head in. Must be how it feels to be a Mourinho fan.

Can't see it being a great signing, but should be what we need which is backup to Salah and Mane. Bit concerned about Firmino's backup, thankfully he never gets injured.
By batong Go To Postthird spot is not meaningless.Someone’s never watched Talledega Nights
anyone that says this deserves a spanking.
By JesalR Go To PostIt would have. He was onside, regardless of what the lino said, VAR would have allowed it.you are telling me Martins is lying?
By Laboured Go To Post🤦🏽♂️
By Laboured Go To PostHe’s injured.Excuses. If Morata or Higuain did it you wouldn't extend them this courtesy.
