Excited to see if Lineker's still wearing his Italy shirt.

Eeeeee he's offside.

Pinto's mint

Italians may need to break into a light jog now.

Costa Rica group winners on the cards ffs

So well deserved.

We're only midway through the round, like. Thread title is premature

It was the fear of the ball for me tonight above all else. You could see Gerrard and Henderson had clearly been asked to sit and shield balls into Suarez' feet, of which there were few, but when we needed an outlet they were rarely seen. Night and day between our approach and Italy's, for instance, and criminal at this level in the centre of your midfield.

Even Haidara was getting touted about in the English press before his move, mind. To Villa IIRC. Again it'll be agent links above all else and the fact he was going for pennies.

Really like the passion. Didn't like the lack of "pelanty" or "high line".

Greece have a height advantage of almost 7cm per player apparently. Will that make any fucking difference? I dinna.

Japan BTTS.

Mr. Tray, I am disgusted.

Major positive about that loss is that there haven't been any puns.

Bosnia?

Not his side Mike, you bumder.

Like the sound of that front six. Shaw is a big hope at LB, other three slots up in the air.

Thanks Frog

Thanks nees

That goal was brilliant. Not sure I've said that enough.

Played well Jags. Well done.

Peasant pizzas.
