I may be in the minority here but I want Columbia to win as they have one of our own in the squad. Club over country every time in my mind

I don't. I want England to progress as far as possible, and I'd be very happy if Jose doesn't get on the pitch to be honest - would rather he didn't get injured pre-season. Oh, and FFS it's COLOMBIA.

How is wanting Colombia to win 'club over country' anyway ? What you want is 'another country over my country' which is a bit odd really.

What’s it called? Cumbernauld
We just need to keep our eyes on this game and not allow how the draw has opened up to get ahead of ourselves


Come on England �������������� ��������������������

We can't really know that can we?

We don't but frankly I think I'd almost rather he starts as he's clearly not fit. Didn't train at all last night.

I know FIFA rankings are generally not worth the paper they are written on, but these are what we potentially face:

England (12)

Colombia (16)

Switzerland (6) or Sweden (24)

Croatia (20) or Russia (70)

You're team Colombia because you're a sweaty.

Nah that's not true. I would rather England get to the semi final and get knocked out there as opposed to this round. That's a true Scotsman coz there would be even more tears. I jest..................Don't want England to win it but I like to see them do well.

I'm definitely ''Team Colombia'' because of Izquierdo and the fact that I have a bet on them.

If I had to choose we get knocked out tonight or in the semi-final, I'd choose the latter. We don't expect to win anyway, and at least getting to the semi is progress for the team.

I'm definitely ''Team Colombia'' because of Izquierdo
He hasn't even played the last two games.
and the fact that I have a bet on them.
How much are we talking here? Not enough for you to even notice I'm sure.
