This is mad! Couldn't happen today without massive multi game suspensions, huge amounts paid as a fine.

Ooo er. Horrible moment for Tomiyasu just now. Lucky to get away with it.


He was pushed, ever so slightly, by the Croatian player. And because of his stance at that time, he got off balance and failed to connect squarely with the ball.

Sounds okay to me. Just glad that he has finished his involvement there and should return fit.

It wasn’t just me then ! Don’t get me started !

I found likewise. You are the most successful World Cup team ever and you are over celebrating like mad whilst you are pounding a plucky emerging country who has played with great heart in the tournament.

Neymar doing a crying celebration when he scored.

I mean the over celebrating for the paqueta goal was absurd. Even after about 4 minutes of dancing and you thought they stopped he fell to his knees and prayed skywards and you just thought “give me a break” then when you saw their manager dancing I just thought right I hope they absolutely get pounded by Mbappe in the final

Agree with all of this, except I hope the Argies do them in the semi. That would really piss them off.

I didn't know this. Or rather think about it, now that I saw this.

Webb, Hurst, Hudson, Venables,Ball and Marsh. Only one I am not sure of is the cigar smoker -
looks like Terry Neill?

Magnificent player - the over-used word icon can be used in his case.

Reading this nonsense from wenger makes me sad. The one person who was supposed to not be for sale and whose morals were unquestionable and is now trotting out this fifa propaganda (not to mention suggesting the World Cup should be every 2 years)

It's Terry Mancini. And he's the only one who looks at all comfortable to me in this strangely fascinating picture.

Thought Hurst was Roger Daltrey at first glance which is a resemblance I'd never noticed before and possibly doesn't really exist. No idea why Webb, Hurst and Venables are standing on chairs, nor why Alan Ball is lounging on the floor like that, though I'd rather he wasn't.

Noteworthy that even back then Venables was so bent that his arms didn't fold properly.

Portugal with 5 lucky goals, lucky domination of possession and several lucky beautiful passages of play against the Swiss. Nothing to fear here…

It's nauseating how it was still somehow all about Ronaldo. Morocco must be desperately hoping that he is selected.

I don't know this but I seem to recall that the board were seriously considering getting Venables to manage us after Rioch. Again, I don't know for sure and am open to being corrected about it but if so, how well would we have likely done (or rather how badly) under him? Total supposition of course.

L to R:

Brian Talbot, don't know, Tommy Caton(??), John Devine, PEELY, Graham Rix, Kenny Sansom, David O'Leary, Paul Davis

I think 2nd from left is Brian McDermott. 3rd left is not Tommy Caton - he didn't arrive until 1984. Picture is 1981.

Imagine living in the home to the lower left?! What surprised me the most when I visited Highbury was just how close to the stadium the homes were.

I see Raheem Sterling is to re-join the England squad, now that his personal problems - all of which have been detailed and discussed in the media - have been resolved.

I'm by no means social media savvy, nor have I searched the media particularly deeply, but I have seen no trace whatever of an explanation, nor even any comment on Ben White's absence. Does anyone find that strange?

Yes. It seems very odd indeed.

In fact it is surprising in today’s climate that it is possible to keep things under wraps like that.

I did see a suggestion that he is a gay man and being threatened in some way of a public 'outing'. Absolutely unsubstantiated and probably complete bs.

Looks like she could cause a few personal problems.

Might solve a few too.

Alex Ferguson playing for Rangers against Arsenal in 1967. Surreal.

Looks like we have a goalkeeper who can stop penalties. Hein stopped 4 penalty kicks from going in. We scored 2 Marqui and Smith (not Emile Smith Rowe I think).

Just seen a clip of the penalties. Truly dreadful all round.
