    That's alright we might get a look at their penalties.

    Croatia are far more superior in penalties.

    Croatia are far more superior in penalties.

    But what about with a crocked goalkeeper?

    Oh shit. Make no mistake about it - there's no way Putin will let England beat Russia. No way. Fingers crossed for the Croats on pens

    70th in the world playing like 7th

    Those rankings are bollocks though. I reckon the Goodwin Sands are probably about 20th...

    The Russians do look full of running though still. I’ll admit that.

    If Russia wins the fire alarms will be going off all night long in England's Hotel the night before the game.
  • We need Croatia to win


    Putin will 100% influence the England game

    This could be fascinating penalty shootout, both teams are physically spent other than the subs

    Doesnt help the fact that Russia are 70th by the fact they havent played any Qualifiers and have only played in Euro 2016 and the Confeds Cup

    Playing friendlies whilst Croatia have played competitive Qualifiers will certainly have damaged their ranking

    I don't rate their chances on penalties with a partially crocked keeper.

    Nothing to suggest that in this game though.

    But definately a doubt unfortunately

    I’ve said it already - you don’t want to be playing Russia in their own country with Putin looking on and FIFA in his back pocket.

    Ref goes to VAR - turns round to his lino...... “well I don’t know if it’s a pen, but the bloke who answered the call said as long as we play on my wife and kids will be ok”

    Russia have astonishingly beaten their record - 148KM covered in the 120 minutes just four days after covering 147KM. With a 39 year old playing every minute of it.


    Astounding and dare I say it... unbelievable.
