Gary nev got it bang on there’s no point trying to avoid anyone
If we are going to win the World Cup (I don’t think we will ) then you just go out to win every game
I think ze Germans will take some amount of positives from that amazing end to the game and win the World Cup because they just know how to win when it matters
We have done what was needed we have beaten the two banana skin teams one with ease the other I typical England nervy fashion
I think we will beat Belgium then its all in winner stays on and we will come up short
But it will be a real experience for the young lions and my prediction will be we will win the Euros in two yrs time
Least the likes of Morocco / Saudi Arabia / Panama have made a decent effort - Feels like Poland have just been going through the motions since getting to the World Cup
Depends; if Japan win 1-0 yet Senegal win 2-0 then the losers of England v Belgium will face Senegal.
If Colombia and Japan win their games then Japan will top the Group meaning the losers of our gane will face Japan
Thanks to their impressive win today; Senegal v Colombia can end in a draw with both advancing if Japan lose to Poland - Means the winners of our game will face Colombia
Only way second place in our Group can face Colombia is if they win and Japan dont
Am so loving this WC. I really didn't feel anything in the build up. Thought it was gonna be poor. Loads of trouble, crap pitches, and basically disorganised. I had the same feeling before 2012 Olympics and that in the end won me over massively. I think we all get more cynical as we get older and after the awful 2010 tournament and Brazil 2014 fizzling out after a promising start (I'm talking as a whole and not just from an England perspective) Russia 2018 is simply fantastic. 2/3 through the group games that's 32 games and we haven't had a 0-0 yet, I know it will get more cagey in the knockout stages but even so it's been so exciting up to now with so many late goals. I wanted Germany to go out but then when Kroos scored the winner I realised I didn't really, I want Germany, Brazil and Argentina etc in the knockout stages, just don't want to play them! Having sneared and belittled Southgate for years I really do appreciate what he has done with the whole England set up. I felt this way weeks ago and meant to post it but didn't. So you may think I'm jumping on the bandwagon but he has been brilliant. We look more of a team than we have done since 1998. I admit I applauded the appointment of Allardyce but where do you think we'd be if we had stuck with him? We needed an injection of youth, both on and off the pitch and so far so good. What has really excited me is that we, or the UK, are bidding for 2030 and word has it that we will be successful, on the downside I'll be 65!
I'm loving this WC thanks to the time difference between China and Russia being only five hours. I've so far watched 12 live games. That's a lot for me. Usually I only get to watch no more than 5 in every major tournament. At my office we were talking about China hosting the WC but our football team has been so poor in the past decade it probably won't happen even when I reach retirement!

That didn't stop Qatar...
I'm sure it won't be long until we get a Chinese World Cup. Probably 2034 after Uruguay-Argentina in 2030!

Or if they hear that Poland are winning against the Japanese then they could play out a draw and both go through.
Winner of G plays Runner Up of H
Winner of H plays Runner Up of G
So if Japan win H, they will play the loser of England v Belgium.
So both England and Belgium will be trying to lose the game
If Colombia and Japan win their games then Japan will top the Group meaning the losers of our gane will face Japan
