Really pleased Argentina won and Messi was brilliant, and I’ve seen Pele at his peak and he would be one of the first to congratulate Messi as one of the greats. The hatred for the Argies comes from the Falklands conflict, get over it, that’s one we won. I have been to Argentina a number of times since the conflict and have never experienced any anti British animosity. A wonderful country and really friendly people, unless you’re at a River Plate v Boca Juniors match.

FA don’t like winners. Alf was a winner, Cloughie was a winner and they wouldn’t have him, and I think Venables would have been a winner given the opportunity to continue after 96. They like yes men.

Yes you’re right and guess which league gives most of these Johnny foreigners the opportunity to play at a higher level at the detriment to our own young players! But money talks and we all go back to supporting our beloved premiership teams and have no regard for the long term effect on our national team. You can’t have it both ways.

What?

I hope the fans of all the Premiership teams remember how Loris threw the ball at the England fans at the final whistle, no class, unlike Giroud who was class at the end.

I would have bet my house on Harry. Such is life.

What did I say?

The worry for me is Griezmann is pulling all the stings here. Put some pressure on him and draw a foul, he’s on a yellow. The other worry is Giroud, he always seems he’s never in the game and suddenly pops one in.

He’s Brasilian

I wouldn’t be too sure about that.

I’m glad Brazil went out as I don’t like Naymar but I do like Messi. Personal choice.

Tugay is God for me. But I've never seen Modric's invisible friend yet, I'm sure he must have one somewhere.

As the Brazilian commentator might be saying: Agora Em Do BrasiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiL

He was immense especially given his age. I’ve got to say if we can’t win this I would not be disappointed if Croatia win, other than playing us in the final.

Naymar no balls. What a wimp not taking an early penalty. Superstar my arse. Croatia are going to take some beating.

Why does Michael Oliver not let Croatia kick off while they are having their carnival with all the bench.

Neymar gets pulled back by the arm and goes down clutching his shin. Get a grip you marred arse.

Another so called big gun out and yet another selection of fairy penalties from Spain, just like Japan. Shearer said last night “ What’s happened to picking your spot and just blasting it.” He obviously meant the way he took them but didn’t say that. I hope our boys have learned a lesson from watching Japan and Spain with their terrible penalty shoot outs. Over to you Gareth.

Agree and many goal celebrations these days are like watching a panto or circus act.

I just cannot believe how some professional footballers are so poor at taking penalties. No conviction to them, just put your laces through it.

We were poor for the first 40 mins as were France. Both kicked on after scoring their first goal, and I think it’s going to be very close in the next game. Who scores first could be crucial . Whoever wins could be the eventual WC winner.

Henderson and Rice may as well not be there
