Semifinals: Croatia vs England

[Papa Shango]

Would Perisic command a bigger fee than any of our midfielders? I honestly don’t think so.

Not that it matters but he would probably fetch more than Henderson, Dier and Lingard for starters.

The Everton of international football. You know they’re not good enough to win it, yet they still manage to disappoint you when they don’t.

LOL!
I've been saying that for years. It's the only way the rest of the country can feel how it's like to support Everton!

Modric and Rakitic would be definite upgrades in midfield. Not sure Hendo is any better than Brozovic either. Midfield ran the show for the Croats.

Only after the first half.

Pickford has to shoulder significant blame for that loss. He's too short and always uses the wrong hand. I am sure if he goes off to a 'big 6' club, these limitations will no longer be relevant factors.
Also, if Bainesy can find time in his busy back-stabbing schedule, you'd like to think he might get a look in at LB at the Euros (which, let's face it, is the real World Cup).

 

[GwladysBlue]

Coleman cost £60k and Yannick Bolasie cost £30m. Valuation is a bit irrelevant

Not if we’re comparing them as they are.

 

[NilSatisOptimum]

Enjoyed the experience of being in a semi final again, with young side all is good. We can only play who is in front of us. And very disrespectful to Sweden and Colombia, to suggest they are poor teams, some of the club's these players earn their living suggests otherwise, and to mock them as easy, that's where the true snide arrogance lives.

No chance.

God help Everton after Sams tactics thenlol

Beautiful Marco will cure us.

So you’d take Jordan Horrendouson over Ivan Ratikic because he’d cost more....

Sound

 

[mmmmsnouts]

Gareth Southgate didn’t do any better than Mike Bassett, total fraud

 

[Lickle eric]

Well done croatia.you deserved to win tonight.
Well done England for a decent world cup and well done Gareth for restoring a bit of pride.

 

[Walken]

Is right keano lad, stick it to the beauts

 

[davek]

You could argue Croatia will suffer at the hands of France they are a good aging team, France will be too quick for them imo!

They'll batter Croatia. Been saying all WC that Framce are a level above all other teams here.

 

[croatian blues]

Didnt Utd try and buy him for like 50 mil last summer[/QUOTE
If Perisic was born as a english, he would cost 80 milions. It's pure economy - market dictate ever

 

[ToffeeTim]

Never in my life did i think I'd be disappointed after England getting knocked out of a WC. But here I am.

Funny old game.
