striker

Ok, after reading the posts above and #50 I feel better. He's young and hopefully just came up against good competition. We could certainly use a top CB. Frankly Yoshida is the only guy I really trust back there.

The fact he didn't get into any WC matches worries me a little. Why not? Its not like Denmark has all PL CB's.

Have to believe that back to back 120 minute matches in 1 week, and then playing again in 4 days, will take its toll on Croatia.

PK's should not be taken for granted

Wow

Russia after 120 minutes and penalties would be great for us.

Lukuku for me, over either Neymar or Griezmann

Sterling is like the England squad version of Long

Ah, FF would have had it for sure

I like Maguire, maybe we can trade Stephens for him straight up.

The good news is that Sweden don't look capable of doing much in the attack

Sterling really isn't good.

Hopefully Sweden will now try to do more, or anything. since they are behind

Maradona apologized today to FIFA, again. Its like a weekly thing with this moron.

Belgium vs France Croatia vs England Belgium vs England England 15 - 0

The first goal against FF looked like a perfect shot, not sure anyone would have had it. The second definitely looks like hid fault, very slow to react. In fact a defender (forget which one) could have headed it away but let it go assuming it was a save

Colombia should be expelled from FIFA, or whatever the proper organization is. What a bunch of thugs

Wow, I never realized Vestergaard was 2m (6ft 6in) tall.

When he ran around the field in his jock strap after the Man City match.

Go Danes, no suck it back and advance 1-0

Me too. Shaqiri has shown he can play in the PL and on a national stage. To me anyway, the jury is still out on Elyounoussi. Sure he'll be on the squad, but he could be another ok rotational guy. Fine, but not a Tadic replacement. Shaqiri clearly is a Tadic replacement, if not better.

We're going to the semifinals at least!

Interesting on Targett. He wants Fulham and Fulham want him, but it looks like we are digging in our heels.

Carrillo not going either. No big surprise, neither player even made it to the bench for the final run in.

All that matters is first getting out of groups, and then making the final. Anything else is useless. We achieved the group stage, and I really like our bracket after the loss. I'm happy. I'd be bummed if we don't get to the semifinals. In fact I could see both England and Belgium in the final 4.
