    You are all self Taff :emoticon-0100-smile

    I really fancy Belgium now but I have France in the office sweep. I have already won the 'worst team' sweep as I had Panama so maybe a double is on the cards. I think the winner will come from Belgium/France

    You're full of it tonight! Great win for Belgium and the new tournament favourites, if they weren't before it all started.

    GRAHAM POTTER knows there isn’t much love for England in south Wales, but the new Swansea boss is still backing Gareth Southgate’s men in today’s World Cup quarter-final – so long as the Three Lions don’t underestimate their opposition. - Express

    Loving the usual overconfidence hyped up englund media . Followed by the vicious condemnation and misery if they lose !

    England beat Tunisia (with a very late goal) and Panama (worst team).
    They lost to Belgium
    They drew with Colombia.

    Why are they being hyped ? Belgium have won all 5 of their games.

    It’s because they are building momentum

    “a gentle burn, start slowly and reach boiling point for the Final.

    Belgium have peaked too soon”

    Well that’s what the English press would have you believe .,,,

    I am going to have a punt on a Sweden win and Olsson to score. I just hope on hope that they turn Ingerland over, just cant see it happening though I have a horrible feeling they are going all they way. Think I will have a punt on them winning it, that way they are bound to be knocked out

    Sweden are going to be tough but if England score first then its game over imo.

    True, England have not beaten a decent team and also true, they've not played that well against the teams they should have easily beaten (on paper). Still, they've done a job and are in the quarter finals but Sweden wont be a push over, their Viking mentality will make sure of that, so to beat them England will have to raise their game.

    Ben over the bridge for much of this month football, basically since the world cup started, and football is all anyone is talking about. England will not have a better chance to getting to the final but no one truly expects them to win it. They've got dreams and hope but the expectation is the next game and that they'll beat Sweden in a scrappy tense game. There's so much excitement in the air you can feel it just by walking around.

    I think Belgium and France are far better teams than England and one will win the cup but, the French do have a history of bottling big games. England have made it this far without playing well and they'll have to improve if they want to play Belgium (got a sneaky feeling) but I can't see them winning it.

    Sweden are too nervous, they need to relax and play, letting England have too much ball, and they have now paid the price, free header in the box, big mistake, Sweden have got to come out of their shell now...... <ok>

    Can’t see England losing now. Sweden look a poor side.
