  • Just had my second nervous shit wank of the day!

    Come on England, let's do this.

    Woke up with absolute nerves of steel this morning. You know when you just get that funny feeling of pure confidence when you just know...? Only ever had it a few times, last one was Portsmouth away last season.

    Don't think I've ever felt it as an England fan before in tournament footy til now. That's not taking Sweden lightly or anything I know they are decent, but I just know it we are going to win this football match.

    I am not comfortable with this level of optimism.

    I'm going for a pre match nerves jog. My prediction is 3-0 to Sweden with a Marcus Berg hattrick.
  • Can someone please confirm that it is a 15:00 BST kick-off

    yeah that's 100% the kick off time
  • Going to be tight, 1-0 either way, or pens. Of course, we're on a roll now with shootouts.

    Good piece in today's Grau:

    You still in grove park mate.
  • Fire alarm went off at the Sweden hotel this morning...

    That seems to happen all the time before a big football match to one of the teams. Blatantly an England fan on the wind up

    Yes, I feel worryingly confident too
  • Heading down to The park now, absolutely bricking it.

    Should be a good crowd of Brits out tonight.

    The Park?

    England team is unchanged from the Colombia match.
  • Slightly surprised as Dele has looked slightly off the pace this tournament after that early knock

    Would have liked to have seen RLC come in for a seemingly not fully fit Alli - he just looks off the pace and RLC is full of power and energy
  • Oxlaide Chamberlain in Alli's role would be absolutely perfect. Shame.

    Got goosebumps, felt chills on such a boiling day.

    Bragging now...
  • Hope Alli and Sterling don't keep falling over this time.
  • Good luck England.
    You have 50/50 chance of being in the semi finals of a World Cup.
    Some players have to show more quality.
    Southgate seems to be very loyal, I hope it's paid back with interest.
