England v Sweden - 8pm KO

MagicMarker

England XI: Hart, Johnson, Terry, Lescott, Cole, Milner, Gerrard (c), Parker, Young, Welbeck, Carroll.

Sweden XI: Isaaksson, Grandqvist, Mellberg, J Olsson, M Olsson, Larsson, Svensson, Kallstrom, Elm, Ibrahimovic

I predict a bore draw.

eagle eye

England have two up top and Ibra is playing for Sweden and you predict a bore draw

England to win 2 or 3 - 1 imo.

Come on England!

kryogen

I would go with a Swedish win, 2-1, but if England play to win they should really trouble them, starting with Carroll is a negative overall I feel, since he is playing it is vital they get him good service because the Swedes are conceding a lot of headed goals. 6 of the last 9 goals against them I think?

If England lose the midfield battle they are fcuked.

bookie basher

will be interesting to see if england will take the game to sweden, i think they wont have the creativity to break sweden down and there will be alot of aimless hoofs from terry,lescott,gerrard up to carroll

I predict that France will win the group, and that the winner of England v Ukraine will join them.

TheEscapist

Hoping for a draw, more than 9 England corners, 3 yellow cards and an Ibra goal.

Oh and a good game of football. :pac:

Why are you speaking in the third person (and shouldn't you be getting ready)?

cson

It's a pretty rock solid back 5 they have England.

Skid

I hope England get a win tonight. it hasn't been a good tournament for the English speaking countries.

kryogen

Some good PR that, putting JT between Welbeck and Lescott

kryogen

Mellbergs beard is majestic

He got nothing on Alonso

kryogen

I expect a better Swedish performance, they should be getting more comfortable with the system and having Elmander back will help Ibra

I actually think Alonsos is a disgrace

Heart wants an English win, wallet wants anything but

So do I, the money is on Sweden and on France to win the group so obviously it would be the best result for me

MagicMarker

Carroll commits two fouls in 80 seconds.

kryogen

Nice dive Scott

IvySlayer

Lol Parker :pac:

Washington Irving

Some nice forward passing from England there

kryogen

Some shot!

IvySlayer

J. Marston

A little dramatic from Parker there.

Washington Irving

Nice try

ollie1

What a save

kryogen

I think I see what kind of game this will be

kryogen

I'd rather Wilhelmson then Larsson, maybe for the next game?

C'mon the Anglophones !!

EDIT: The Dutch have been particularly poor

J. Marston

We don't need to see up the kids nose.

kryogen

Swedes still don't look comfortable with the system, still, Ibra is a boss

MagicMarker

Don't think Young has touched the ball yet.

markie29

andy carroll has started the game well.
