Croatia have been horseshite for the past two games, I think England will beat them. The hope is that either France / Belgium are more than strong enough to beat them.
Rocket, you'll hear no arguing from me re: the English mentality, needing to feel like they're top, the empire etc. It's definitely still there. I can only speak for my friends / family, but there isn't any of that and they're all in shock. It's very prominent amongst particular working classes, probably depending on location. The Ikea thing was absolutely embarrassing, as was the climbing of a first response ambulance unit
