England in the semi's then

I think when the dust settles this is the best result for England. Forget all the nonsense about this being an open world cup etc. Yes Italy and holland did not participate, Germany have gone home but there are at least 4 teams better than England

Brazil
Belgium
Spain
France


Im willing to bet my house all these teams will beat England in a knock out game any day hence coming second will not harm Englands chances.


England will have enough to beat Colombia, wont be easy but should get through. That sets up a quarter final meeting with the swiss or sweden who they should beat. It gets interesting at semifinal stage where they could meet any one of Spain or Croatia.

Best result all round.If they somehow lose to Colombia though

England could certainly lose to Colombia - in fact in one off games every match in the last 16 is competitive - but that doesn't change the fact that for England a match against Colombia with potentially another match against Sweden or Switzerland to get to the semi-final of the World Cup is a fantastic opportunity

Uruguay , Croatia , Portugal are better than England.

'Culumbia' know how to make good chico though and turn a country into a flucking warzone. Can't fault them for that.

After that I suppose most people will say anyone can win it but thats nonsense in my opinion.Its like Liverpool vs Real madrid in the CL final. You marvel at Liverpools run and give them a chance but you kinda know Real are way better than them and will eventually win.

I hope they prove me wrong as I would like a different winner but I wouldnt be surprised if the winner comes from the half they have avoided. If Belgium beat Brazil then surely that will give their world cup campaign the legs to go all the way.

I think the semi final line up will be

Brazil vs Argentina
England vs Spain

I know south american teams dont normally win the world cup in europe but this Brazil team is balanced from goal keeper to the attackers and they have a player in Neymar who can make the difference on a difficult day

Brazil are not a good team, but they could win it.

Can't get over the arrogance of England fans. Columbia will be a tough game, don't be surprised to see us go home.

Lol people seem to forget we lost to Iceland 2 years ago. Hate arrogant posts like this.

The best we can say is that there are much scarier teams left in the competition that we could meet in the next two rounds than Colombia, Sweden and Switzerland. Play each of them ten times and sometimes England would win. Reaching the semis is not unthinkable. Colombia will be a tough game if they turn up.

I think with a bit of luck England can reach final of World Cup or do one better and go on to win it.I still think there might be a new winner of World Cup like Croatia or Belgium or even Mexico with a lot of luck.Personally I want England to win but if not possible,I would prefer a surprise and a new team to win World Cup this time like Sweden or Croatia or even Belgium.Out of these three nations,I would prefer to see Sweden win if possible.

Or maybe the old horse, Uruguay to win their 3rd
