You lot are getting carried away with this coming home business. One game at a time. We've failed to beat Sweden in the past.
The stars are aligning ala Leicester. Southgate is a legend in the making and we've just actually won a penalty shootout at a World Cup. Cheer up ffs, it's coming home.

If you can’t get carried away in a World Cup, there’s no point in even watching football. This is what it’s all about!
Did you really just try and justify it by themcleaning up a few drink bottles and leaving a thank you note. Probably best we don’t get into a debate on this one I sense we won’t agree with each other’s opinions.
I’m due to be on the motorway to Liverpool when that quarter final kicks off. And what I really mean by that is that I’ll be pulling over and finding the nearest northern town and setting up camp in their pub until that game is finished. THEN, I will finish the journey.
The fans had infinitely more to do with clearing up drink bottles than they did with Japan's actions in WWII, for which none of them were alive (and in most cases, not even their parents would have been at age of majority).
Russia, Sweden, England, Croatia. One of those four teams is going to play in the World Cup Final. No apologies for my excitement. It’s ****ing exciting.
I'm off to Bulgaria today, and attending my mate's wedding in Plovdiv on Saturday. I told him I'll be disappearing for a couple of hours during the reception, but that I'll be back in the evening to celebrate. In response to this, he's put me on a table with all the bride's best friends to tempt me into staying. They're all air stewardesses. Bulgarian air stewardesses. Bloody good move by him. The bastard.
A couple of drinks, and you should be able to persuade them that watching the game is a vital part of your mate's nuptials. See it as a challenge.
