    Just seen this as well, love seeing stuff like this at football. The Dutch fans seem absolutely class.

    Edit: nevermind

    England will win 2-0. The Dutch are a good side, definitely better than anything have played yet, but England have excellent players and it fees like are improving after a slow start to the tournament.

    If they can, England need to turn van Dijk as he is mustard when facing the opposition, not so good when forced to chase back i m o.
    Problem is when the oppo have the ball (both for Liverpool and Netherlands) he rarely gets further forward than 30 metres (old money yards) from his goal, so there will be a need for quick passing from the back to catch him as far upfield as possible .. argue against myself here, quick passing and England so far is a bit of an oxymoron and Kane is not the quickest. Best perhaps to play Foden as central as possible .. I REALLY hope that Shaw is fit enough to start, Trippier is a very good right back, but a liability in attack on the left

    Not surprising, Dortmund’s only an hours drive from the Dutch border, would be like England playing a semi-final in Cardiff!

    I'm hyped, was blasting addicts to victory on the drive home from work (adjusted the lyrics) 

    We hear the battle cry (oh, oh, oh-oh)
    Tonight's do-or-die (oh, oh, oh-oh)
    We fightin', you will see (oh, oh, oh-oh)
    England to victory (oh, oh, oh-oh)
    We're in a hurry, in Germany now
    On a mission, gonna tear it down
    Eyes among you, all the adrenaline
    And determined for a clean sheet win
    We will win
    We will win
    A clean sheet win
    We will win!

    I’m in bits (as usual).
    Wish I was with my Bruv. He’s watching it in my favourite bar in Greece.
    Which is usually full of Dutch 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇳🇱🤣🤣💙

    This is why I hate fantasy football, ruining the run up. Can’t decide on captain tonight, gonna go Kane I think

    Nerves kicking in. I've seen most of the England games in a British pub in the neighbouring town, but it gets flooded with Dutch, so I'm hunting around for a pub to watch it in tonight.

    Southgates missus must know what Gareth has every evening he comes in for his tea. Cheese on toast every evening of the week. No sauce.

    Wonder if he will start glitching if we go 1-0 down on 20. Will he put the subs on then?

    Feel like we've at least shown something when we've made the subs. What have we shown with the starting eleven?

    To be fair, I think you’re good with that comment regardless of tonight’s game

    Quite amusing dont you think, seeing that pre-tournament; Southgate was heavily slated for not getting his substitutes right.

    Just get the job done!!

    Always got to believe we'll get the result we need, whether thats over 90mins, 120mins or even penalties.

    End of the day, Football is 11 v 11 (Ideally, unless someone is stupid), and anything can ultimately happen!!
