phr0nesis:They haven't met any good team bar Belgium. They were the worst team to get out of their group. They were average and very lucky against Tunisia. Croatia will beat them mark my words. 3 Likes |

Same way they said Liverpool will win the champions league based on some history(coincidence) and guess what they lost.. Same way the English team will lost to Croatia. Overrated bunch of players 3 Likes |

Unfortunately for the optimists here,I don't believe in omen or thunder striking at the same place twice. Based on team strenght and intelligence it will Croatia vs Belgium/France in the Finals. Engand have reached their bus stop if you were to honestly ask me. 4 Likes |

I reject this prediction! England are going home without the world cup. 1966 is not 2018, and 52 yrs in between them. Grand finale in 2018 is Belgium vs Croatia and Belgium w'll carry the day, my oracle says this. 3 Likes |

GoldenCircle: Why would you support your formal colonial masters, after what our forebears suffered from them. I still don't know why I hate seeing England in the tournament. France still have provisions for their formal colonies and all francophone, but England yeye master |

I don't care whosoever wins the cup, in fact if Biafra or Amazonia wins or Chad ko kan aye... But England no way. For England to win it I'll rather love to see the country that didn't participate at all in the world Cup to lift the cup 3 Likes |

I hinted it to my son though I wasn't aware of these statistics. My premise (but may be wrong): It's all about 666. Just as 1966 was a 666 year so is 2018. Total number of goals was 6 (4+2). Will it be so in 2018? I am convinced there's is indeed a god of soccer, subsidiary of the god of entertainment and pleasure. The god of soccer determines who wins what. Didn't the English start football? It's their time to be honoured by the god of soccer again! Isn't it? Time will tell. I am not a seer o! footballflaver: |

They have been the luckiest so far. The only time they played a strong and sound team was when they played Belgium. If they had played Japan.....they would have left the tournament by now. I don't want them to win the World Cup, I don't want kane to win the golden boot as well. 6 goals with 4 scored from penalties.......... .That's ridiculous. 3 Likes |

At this point, any team can win the cup. They have all paid their dues. I sure would root for Belgium winning but this is football....anything can happen! |

This is how inferior teams win medals.. They meet little oppositions on their way up and when they finally meet the big shots, They scale through either by Miracle or sheer brilliance.. We should not write England off yet. They've been persistent so far.. I'm supporting Ngolo Kante's Team though.. My love for his efficiency knows no bounds.. |

Nope, you are wrong! Compare what happened in world cup to what would likely happen in wc. They played Germany then, hosted it but now on a foreign ground(a foreign ground she has diplomatic issue with). Let's see how politics play in football! |

How's england going to win the world cup with belgium there...and u havent mentioned France and Croatia. How's england going to withstand the likes of Hazard,lukaku and felani harrasing their 18 box? Abeg lets put sentiments aside. What happened in 1966 is not going to happen in 2018. Its either France or Belgium thats going to win the worldcup. God cant save the queen this time. 2 Likes |
