    Simple aye? Keep firing the ball in to the box, have guys there, or arriving at pace. It only has to work once.

    Dolazi kući!!!

    And after seeing their president, I hope the cup is dolazi kući right between the president's bosoms.

    holy crap. THAT is the Croat prez? What could possibly ever go wrong in a country where THAT is your leader. "In these times of trouble let us turn to the bosom of Dear Mother for solace and calming sustenance. Oh yes boobs. There aint no need for fussin and fightin

    If she's not, and Google has deceived my good chum who sent this on to me, she bloody well should be.

    @smudge its Ice Ts missus, who get confused for the Croatian president. But it sounds like the president is a goer in any case!

    Two undefeated teams in the final so no complaints from me.

    France will be at short odds to win.

    The main problem is that England can only operate with pinging long balls and doing everything in fast mode. They don't seem able to move up the field by passing and moving which Croatia is rather good at. Once Croatia realised that if you press the defenders it ends up with a Pickford long ball then they started to dominate possession.

    And Harry seemed to be playing deep most of game. Sure Sterling's pace bothered Croatia at times but he can't hold the ball up and bring other players in.

    Yep, England don't have a midifeld who are comfortable on the ball. A player like Wilshere would have been handy.

    @KiwiMurph Kane was really disappointing. This was the game he needed to step and finish some chances, but as you say he played way too deep and was basically anonymous the whole match.

    Just realised Croatia only has 4 million people. How awesome would it be if they pulled this off?

    If does Croatia does win the WC then Modric has a very good chance of breaking the Messi-Ronaldo stranglehold on the Ballon d'Or.

    At least lukaku has de broyne and hazard to provide the service. England have no one to create anything. That's what he has to find.

    I was cheering for Croatia because their President is pretty hot for her age and its a bloody small country. That's how much I know or care about soccer.
