The Goal of the Tournament showreel for this year's WC will be stunning. So many bangers. Nacho, Quaresma and Pavard were the most satisfying for me, But Lingard's was joyous, as was Stones' 2nd v Panama.
Such mental fortitude there. To pick ourselves up after a couple of real sickeners (last min goal, missing a pen first) shows SUCH a strength.
First time in YEARS I can say I’m genuinely proud of this England team.
England back to full strength as expected, same team that faced Tunisia.
Meanwhile according to BBC Sport James Rodriguez hasn’t even been named in the squad! Pleased that Izquierdo isn’t starting.
Tight game so a loss wouldn’t be a disgrace, but as everyone else is saying just really want England to play without fear, and play the high tempo stuff that suits this set of players.
Cmon lads.
We really don't.
Colombia are a lightyears better side.
Switzerland are 7th in the World and whilst that's a bit high, clearly not even close to footballing minnows, which was how Iceland were seen coming into Euro 2016.
Sweden beat Holland, Italy and Mexico to get to this point.
And...
Barry Glendenning has had a massive sense-of-humour bypass over the whole "it's coming home" thing. It's clearly for the vast majority a very tongue in cheek attitude, based on seeing so many years of failure.
