Yes but at least england sit on one knee for some reason and fuss about armbands.

Also keep bellend kane and other favourites in the team and boring southgate as manager and don't expect much else......

A simply awful performance from a manager who seems to leave his better players out of the team.

Re: Season 22-23

On the plus side it’s the first and may well be the only game at this World Cup to have registered not one single yellow card. Either a tribute to the fair play of both teams or possibly a lack of real commitment?

Pretty sure he retired, and wasnt known for his patience.

Watching the FA Cup on BBC atm, Alvechurch scored a fantastic free kick not long ago.

He has retired from the pitch but I believe he now has an important role ‘upstairs’.

No yellow or red cards was not good for my free bet builder.

Re: Season 22-23

Impressive win for England, after an indifferent start to the match.

Lets see if we can shine against the French on Saturday.

Re: Season 22-23

Given the French are World Champions all the pressure is on them rather then England.

A Quarter Final spot was the minimum for England so any further is a bonus.

Re: Season 22-23

I think it would have been expected England would get out of the group and probably the 2nd round. If we'd come 2nd we would have probably played Netherlands and then Argentina still which would have worked out similar to Senegal and France.


In terms of expected progress I suppose the only thing you can look at is the FIFA world rankings (those in bold are still in it)
1 Brazil
2 Belgium
3 Argentina
4 France
5 England

6 Italy
7 Spain
8 Netherlands
9 Portugal
10 Denmark
11 Germany
12 Croatia
13 Mexico
14 Uruguay
15 Switzerland
16 USA
17 Colombia
18 Senegal
19 Wales
20 IR Iran
21 Serbia
22 Morocco
23 Peru
24 Japan
25 Sweden
26 Poland
27 Ukraine
28 Korea Republic

Guess here you could make the reasonable assumption the higher ranked team is the favourite. So far we haven't played anyone above us in the rankings but both possible opponents (depending on group progress not the other match) would have been above us. So QF is expected progress here.


Also goes to show how much of an upset it was for Belgium to go out in the groups and of course Italy not to qualify at all.

Re: Season 22-23

None of the other top teams have played anyone above them. England are the only team in the last 8 to play four teams from the top 20.��

Also Argentina, Brazil, France, Spain and Portugal have all lost one game to teams outside the top 20 already.

Just trying to look for positives.

Re: Season 22-23

Japan clearly need to practice penalties.
