    He has been poor, yes his pace turns teams and pushes teams back and this is useful but when you need him to make the right decision or get his first touch right or score he gets it wrong and at some point that may cost you big time. If anyone is watching him and thinks he's doing well then they need to lay off the smack.

    He's a threat until it comes to the crucial moment he will then **** up the assist or shot.

    I would play Rashford over Sterling any day of the week.
    Sterling gets to play for an awesome club side and that has given a false impression of his abilities imo.
    Rashford is twice the player Sterling is.

    I'm a man utd and tbh I wouldn't

    Rashford is way overhyped and hasn't made the transition from youth player to first teamer yet. In terms of decision making.

    Most frustrating player at utd after fellaini and his fouling

    He does my head in tbh mate. Head down and run. But still young and has the attributes.

    The crosses of St George are flying all around me... Gareth Southgate, the whole of England is with you.

    Starting to brick it now. Getting close to the game and the reality that we could be in a World Cup final is drawing nearer. Cannot wait for this, whatever the lads do they will come back as heroes, but they have a chance tonight to make legends of themselves (I nicked that one from Gary Lineker)

    COME ON ENGLAND !!!!!

    Got a nice ounce just for the occasion

    Their last 2 games have gone to penalties...I don't think their ageing team will be able to live with us over the 90

    2-0 to us

    I hope you're right mate <ok>
    Croatia also have some injury doubts and like you say, they are an ageing team who hopefully will be knackered after about 75 mins.

    Rashford over Sterling for me. But I think Southgate will start with Sterling.

    I really can't see Southgate changing anythng unless someone is struggling with a knock ... Rashford and Vardy shouldl relish getting on against (hopefully) already half knackered Croats if needed <ok>

    I don't think the starting line up needs changing.

    As you say, throw them on with 30/20 to go and not 3 minutes into injury time.

    Reckon our pace can destroy them
