Croatia was the first decent team they faced and they were through against poor opposition. We'll see how poor they are when France trounce them. I find watching the England team so frustrating as they back pass all the time instead of all out attack. A lot of good soccer playing countries didn't qualify, come the latter part of the tournament the likes of Argentina, Spain, Germany, Portugal were out. England will never have a better chance of winning.

Well deserved too. Croatia put up a good account of themselves in fairness. Well done France!!!

I have to say I don't think England would have stood a chance against either of these two. Right result

Very true Jimmy, I was in my club watching them play a few of their matches and everyone was gasping at the number of times England back passed the ball instead of attacking. No, you're right. They wouldn't have matched any of them teams in the final. Right result.

Interesting that the French and Belgians returned home to wild celebrations, don't know if the Croatians did too, but our team flew unceremoniously back into Birmingham with no celebrations. Fans asked why they could not greet them and the airport reply was "Security"

The only prize they returned with was Kane getting the golden boot.

They're just not putting on side.

Hello ARENA - actually I'm not sure I have one? I love playing the fantasy football game online and with Liverpool's signings I guess I'm quite excited about their prospects. But I don't root for any one team in particular.
Here's what I have drafted so far as my fantasy squad for the season...
On the bench there's Arnautovic, Pickford, Fernandinho and Magure.

The media are certainly giving Man Utd a pasting this season.

Just like everyone else is!
(disclosure: I do not follow football, but they seem not to be doing that well this season.)
