Yes, it seems odd to say ‘we just won 2-0, but these players were a waste of space, so we should change it up for the next game.’

You hear it after every Derby match, regardless of result. People always trying to pick out the "weak link".

In a few years time it's going to turn out that all these Russians are on drugs just like all their other sportsmen. 

They're going to win this tournament ?

There's something a bit poetic about facing Croatia. 

Croatia, for me, are the villains of the epitome of England's lackluster recent history, winning the game that meant we failed to qualify for Euro 2008.

It would really symbolise to me England finally leaving that behind them, should they win. 

EDIT: Thanks Hants

2008 - that was our failure.

Carson threw one over his own shoulder.

Are there any other weirdos out there like me who always adopt Croatia as their 2nd team every tournament, cos of Igor & Asa?

Nope. Me too. 

Went to watch them play at Euro96 for that very reason & have always had a soft spot for them since.

Unpopular opinion: We're getting away with it, and no one wants to admit it. 

Basically, you can't stand to see us being successful and want to see the negative side to our best world cup performance in 28 years.

Not me. I lose all interest once England are out. I only wish that they could ALL lose.

Me too. I also have a soft spot for them because I remember going to that club in Prague that's got 5 floors. I spent ages trying to figure out which floor had the best atmosphere before settling on the stairwell with all the Hajduk Split fans that were in town.
