Stones was a lucky boy, even that idiot hoddle agreed. If neymar had gone down like Henderson did after that "headbutt" the English media would have slaughtered neyamr for it. Listening to pundits and commentary for England matches is like watching a match on Celtic or rangers tv, they see things that aren't actually happening. It's comedy gold. I don't even think England were that good, Colombia showed how relatively average stones and Maguire are when they went at them. A team with a decent front line will tear that defence apart. Who are “that good” though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thais could go poorly.could be worst team ever to win the World Cup. Sweden - average but some how manage to get through qualifiers and a playoff against Europe's top sides. They got through a 1st round which contained the holders and they just neat the team ranked 5th in the world. Not bad for average Croatia - bottlers. Really? Based on what? No team has played brilliant in all 4 games so far but Croatia looked brilliant again Argentina and also have some great talent. Croatia is a country we jocks should look on with envy. Same population but less history yet they're in the world cup quarter finals. Russia - arguably one of the poorest sides in it but some how their passion and drive has got them to the quarter finals. England - just won their first penalty shoot.out in a world cup and have had an easier route to this stage than any other side. I Iinclude their qualifying group in this too. They haven't been tested whilst the others above have had some big tests. England definitely have a chance of winning this tournament, only and idiot would argue against that however their route isn't easy just because some of the teams in it are not the traditional big guns.

I think they had better players 10 - 15 years ago than they do now but this England side looks more of a team; solid and hard to beat. I agree with this. Engla d have learned their lesson, play as a team instead of a collection of egos and individuals. As for us, we were outplayed that day at hampden. We don't have the talent or the team to compete at that level yet and I don't think enough of our lot have the passion to succeed in a Scotland shirt.

The whole tournament has been the same. It’s all been about England. There’s a bogging obsession here with all things English. From the royal mob to “Oh you like saaaaccer?
