WINTER IS COMING Joined: 7 March 2006 Posts: 45,603 User: 88	After the misery and joys of conceding and scoring in the last minutes of the game against Russia & Wales, England play their final group game against Slovakia. A win will guarantee going through as group winners. A draw will also guarantee qualification. Predictions? Vardy & Sturridge surely to start.

Of course with England it's never that simple... Vardy and Sturridge to start please.

I'm a paragon so don't perceive me Joined: 3 February 2011 Posts: 37,420 User: 12,929	I was bringing up parallels to 2010 Group C (English-speaking nation that isn't England tops the group, we play one of the two 'Slovs' in our last match and draw it, putting ourselves in second). Would have been stronger if we were to play runner-up of Group C which could have been Germany, I hadn't memorised the matchups so thought that was it. Group F is decent but it could end up being Portgual if both they and Iceland win. We were actually fairly good tonight - and I say that against my sweepstake team of Slovakia (who I'm incredibly glad are still in with a chance) but no converting.

We controlled the game from start to finish and Slovakia played for the draw, but we only had one/two clear cut chances for all the domination. We weren't patient enough when going through the middle (I don't think the crowd helped) and we had zero width down our left hand side. Shame as he would have got slaughtered, but the game needed Sterling.

It was very reminiscent of United last season at times lol Typical England, they had a golden route to the semi finals potentially but they have well and truly f***ed that up now! If they manage to get past the Round Of 16 then France will be waiting in the quarter final to knock them out. Wales defeat to England has no effect whatsoever on the final positions in the group and I think they have a chance of beating Czech Republic or Albania.
