Hopefully fuck all, as the winner of this will be England’s opponents in the QF, assuming the English beat Senegal.

Jug eared linekar already asking how they think the France Engerlund game will be.

 

impartial my arse. 
 

what a Fuckwit 

[Ten Caat]

Always hilarious to see Lineker's face in the immediate aftermath of a Guffy elimination.

[The Gee Man]

Game over

[aberdeen1970]

Wow, some penalty decision there 

[Ramandu]

Only saw the last 20 mins of that, but France are the most enjoyable team to watch for me. No desire to hold possession, just rapid attacks by good players.

Mbappe > Messi

[Ke1t]

This French team could win the whole shebang.

Winning a near 25 year old Ricky Martin single would be scant reward imo

Well let's hope they win the quarter final at least.

Very good and great you mean?

[maryhilldon]

Maradona is the greatest anyway. No argument.

I’m guessing @Ramandu was probably meaning that Mbappe right now is a better player than the current version of Messi.

Well, if Micah Richards and Pat Bonner can get a gig as pundits , no reason you can’t too. Similar levels of insight.
