I’m on a flight that takes off during the 80th minute of the game. It’ll be the longest hour of my life

I really never thought this would happen again, in my lifetime, and yet here we are !
It's almost the opposite to the 1990 Semi Final - Didn't expect to beat the Germans, but knew the Finalist ahead, were certainly beatable. I think tonight's game is 50/50 but if we do make it, we will be 2nd favourites against the French. But just to get to the Final would be fantastic !! Fingers crossed |

I am not sure we are as strong a favourite as the UK bookmakers have us but we'll never have a better chance of making a world cup final and what an event sunday would be for everyone! We'd most likely be a huge underdog with the midfield quality France have but what the hell.. A world cup final in my lifetime!
The key for me is really how good we are defensively? I worry we have a one man midfield in Henderson and that we will always concede very decent chances against sides with quality players. We are vulnerable for sure. It's a hard game to call today. Very little would surprise me. I could picture a tight game or a game where one of the sides sticks away it's early chances and ends up with a cakewalk. |

And proud
Be boring if everyone supported the same team. You've beaten no one, had a blessed run and now you'll get pantsed by a team that can actually play football. 4-0 to the Croatian Clubbers. |

Having said that, wouldn't be surprised if they get through to the final. |

Fingers crossed Lingard and Alli are up to it and we can get at them early.

Just hope we give a good account of ourselves and play like we did on Saturday. |

Tonight will be the first where the opposition will look to have a go at us. It could work even further in our favour or exploit us immensely. I'd love to see Sterling, Lingard and Alli have a bit more space to do damage in the final third instead of facing narrow compact sides. Kane seems to be coming deeper as well, I still think he has some big performances to come too.

First time for me (during this WC) tonight out in a pub for an England game. Normally avoid due to excessive people, 8 million long at the bar and I piss every 15 mins when on the sauce......but f--k it, it's not every day you get to a WC semi.
