    I must be in the minority but I'd be happy enough to see England win it out.

    Preference would be Belgium but I wouldn't begrudge England if they managed it.

    I felt the same until I had to put up with every prick in Manchester singing “footballs coming home” outside my window, it’s been a long 3 weeks

    Have a feeling Croatia are going to need an early goal or 2 against England, they looked totally out on their feet at the end..

    Shaping up for a lukaku hatrick in the final against England and 2 assists from fellaini.

    At this rate jayo i need lukaku to get 6-7 goals in the next two games for my Top Scorer bet to come in.

    Why what's your top score bet? He only 2 off Kane Lukaku biggest disadvantage is he don't take penalties.

    Jesse Lingard's game by numbers vs. Sweden:

    most take-ons completed (4)
    most shots (4)
    1 aerial duel won
    1 tackle won
    1 key pass
    1 assist


    A certain poster said he was "rubbish". It's amazing how bias can cloud a person's vision.;)

    I see 2 of the rags are linking us with making a 35mill bid for Lozano


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 18,640 ✭✭✭✭RobbingBandit


    Feel bad for Rashford hasn't really gotten a look in yet hopefully more of a role in the semi final

    Lukaku outright top scorer 15/1 at the start.
    Yeah but id fancy Kane to get 1 or 2 vs Croatia than Lukaku to do the same against France.
    Lukaku has been my striker of the tournament so far, and i say that not being biased. Although if i said it to the lads it would sound like it cause im a UTD man.
    His overall play throughtout thw tournament though has been superb. As much as Hazard hasnt playee him in at times, Lukaku and de Bruyne link up has been excellent

    I genuinely would not swap him for any striker in world football right now, not only is he doing just as well as anybody you can name, I actually think that he is about to explode over the next few seasons. He is 25 now, we are about to see him hit his prime and he is going to be a real weapon for United.

    He acts like the captain of that team. Its great to see after each match he starts the big huddle making sure all the players are there for the after match talk. He's a future captain 100%, thing is, i've no doubt he'd strive in that responsability for us.
