No vault icon...fire the mods.

Was just thinking that as I read the post!

I'm actually torn on this game now. If I could choose then I'd like England to get to the final and lose to a Richarlison hattrick.

Look at the possible games ahead: France, Spain and Brazil.

FFS, you'd have to be daft as a brush to think that a team that contains Harry Maguire and Jordan Henderson are getting through that minefield.

If -IF- they can find a way past France, I would expect them to do the same against Spain as tails will be well up.

…then reality bites against Brazil.

You may yet get your wish, David.

England has elite players, Foden plays for the best English side in its era, the boy Kane is a World Class scorer of goals, the boy Jude looks a generational talent, sure France, Spain and Brazil have a lot going for them, but you are talking about the greatest nation on Earth, a small country that ruled the entire world, the very mention of the word England sends shockwaves around the world, from Rio to gay Paris.

We are England and we reject the ability to suffer defeat.

When Hendo lifts up the Jules Rimet, I want you to feel colonised.

I suspect this may be a tad OTT but, patriotism aside, your footballing points are valid.

I just wish I didn't have a picture in my mind of a long-eared Maguire giving rides on Blackpool beach

France are superior and will see off the Crusaders. Spain will pass England off the pitch. Their movement is light years ahead of those donkeys. Brazil...well...let's not go there. That would probably be too embarrassing even for me to laugh at.

Imagine Southgate doing "The Pigeon" lol

Good to see that all the human rights problems in Qatar have been sorted since England's win over Senegal.

His overarching point was correct, however.

FIFA are corrupt. Qatar is a cess pit. But the western critics are hypocrites.

Looks alright Qatar. I think I might live there.

Where do you stop with these 'protests'? Will it be ok if someone protests at the deaths and ill health (diptheria) in UK detention centres?

Let's play balll!!!!

Good one David.

Obviously Neymar is their best player but Richarlison is the beating heart of that Brazil side. Top player, top fella!

So despite France seeing off the Crusaders, just in case they actually don't you say Spain will out pass them. Its Goals that count, not passes completed. Then when England have been thoroughly out-passed you'll be too embarrassed to laugh at England should they reach the final of the World Cup, regardless of the result.

You sir are a proper whopper!

I think France would probably beat Crusaders

Although in fairness, they are flying high at the minute, up to second in the Irish league

I thought he was talking about the defunct North Wales rugby league team

Guess who'll have the last laugh on saturday when England get pumped by Les Bleu?

I still cant fathom this btw: Evertonians supporting England.

The embarrassment of it.

You need to ease up on your hatred for everything and sundry. Its Football supporters supporting their countries. Should Everton players retire from playing for their country?

England have reached the last 8 and there is no shame going out to the current holders of the World Cup if indeed that is the outcome.

Near enough similar squad were a pen away from winning the Euro’s 18 months ago, not exactly out the realm of possibility
