Guess Croatia will be in their same kit as tonight seeing that their home version will clash with both of ours
Which I think we can all agree with a shame because their home kit is lovely
I fear this is where it ends for England. I think Croatia have one big performance left in them, and I don't think England are good enough to stifle them in midfield. But I think it could be an entertaining, open game.
Disagree - think that Croatia have done their dash, and will be even more fatigued after yesterday.
Thought that we would beat Sweden comfortably, and we did, and think that we will deal with the Croatians in a similar manner.
Outside of when that Knobhead McClaren was in charge, we have a good record against them, and once more set-plays are going to be vital for us.
If we did make the final, then we would be big underdogs against either side, so we can play pressure off.
I honestly don't see anything that doesn't make us big favourites against Croatia.
Slight favourites yes, but big favourites no way. They're a good side, and it's a world cup semi final. Certainly not going to be as comfortable as yesterday. They also have 2 of the worlds best midfielders
They have a very similar trait to us in this World Cup
I reckon we can beat Belgium easier than the French dogs
We shouldn’t fear either. By that point we would be in the Final in what would be the most surreal outcome that none of us expected. We would have nothing to lose at that point
Belgium are full of prem players so we’d know all about them. France have a few prem players but many of them can have off days and on days where they’re absolutely unstoppable (pogba, giroud) and a couple of great players our players wouldn’t have come up against (griesmann and mbappe).
No team has really stood out in this tournament. Some have had great individual games or had great individual player performances, but no-one has been consistently good or looked unbeatable. For example Belgium and France look strong, and are clear favourites out of who's left. But theyhave also rode their luck. Belgium were excellent against Brazil, but still needed a lot of luck which went their way.
Do I expect us to beat Crotia? No. Do I think we can? Yes, most definitely. Do I think We'll win the World Cup? No. Do I think we can win it? Yes, most definitely.
They might have Modric but Croatia have Lovren at the back.
Kane has destroyed him when he was at Southampton and at Liverpool. Lovren will be shitting himself and having nightmares as he doesn't have Van Dijk alongside him to coach him through.
Croatia really impressed ne when they demolished Argentina and at that point, I thought they were the team to beat. Since then, they haven’t been entirely convinvincing so we’re in with a chance. They’re a group of talented individuals who play for some of the finest clubs in Europe. But their heartbeat is Modric. Stop him and I think we’ll do it #ComeOnEngland
If you’d have said to me this time 3 weeks ago we’d be in the semi finals, I’d have had a hard time getting my head around it. Cannot believe we’re here
Watched the Croatia game last night. We can beat them, they can beat us. They haven’t been as free flowing since they dismantled the argies. They’ve needed pens to get through both their knockout games.
This is a huge week. Might be the biggest week of my life, ever
Croatia, knackered lot, no worries. Then Belgium or France shit themselves/lose the plott on big occasion, England have one more tragedy in them, I reckon it's going in with Blatter and Platini

Definitely prefer to play Belgium.
Gotta get past the Croats though.
Before this tournament I would have put at least 5 of their players into our side. Going to be very close and I wouldn’t be surprised if we are beaten
We will beat Croatia 3-1
I want us the play Belgium in the final
Do I expect us to beat Crotia? No.
Do I think we can? Yes, most definitely.

that’s the bottom line cos NLA said so

England to win comfortably.
Didn’t know he was that good!
