    England V Croatia

    A tuff game, Croatia look good.

    Looks like we have a full squad apart from Hargreaves.

    2-1 England id guess. Both goals to Owen.

    Predictions?:D

    Gonna be a tough one with lots of nails disappearing in pubs and homes up and down the country. Think we can pull it off and win 3-1

    Good play going forward but shockingly bad at the back. No 1 has any confidence in James. He got alot of cheers for the saves he made but half of those saves he only had to make cos he'd fucked up earlier on. At defensive set pieces we are a shambles. Going forward we still cant keep hold of the ball well enough, Beckham is one of the worst culprits of giving the ball away cheaply. The few times we did pass the ball around Scholes scored and Rooney got his first.

    On the bright side qwe are through and I think we have every chance of beating Portugal, especially with Rooney in the form he is and Lampard playing brilliantly as well. Only worry is they well have the extra man with the support like we did in 96

    Gary neville is the worst for that, stands there staring at the ground. They need to take a leaf out of the England rugby team before the France world cup semi final

    what are you on?

    Cambell is most pundits defender of the torn.

    Set piece defending is shocking but the defending in general was good.

    agreed - cambell was excellent again. the croats were all lanky fellas which gave them such an advantage in the corners and free kicks

    slightly changed my words there so i don't sound like i'm repeating pikes effort....

    Its not just set pieces, any ball played into the box when there is more than 2 attackers and everybody shits themselves. Agree that Campbell has been excellent when hes been facing an attacker and they are running at him

    Totally agree! I think we're a bit vulnerable at the back. John terry looks nervous. Gerrard was awesome last night (again). I honestly don't think many of the team are playing to their potential. I think other teams should be scared of us in case everyone hits top form for three games!
