And the drugs donā€™t forget the drugs. Croatia must have kept a few scooby snacks in reserve from 2018 to give it a lash again this year. Theyā€™re glowing.

Some outstanding pre-tournament predictions by Samuel Etoā€™o here. And not a hint of bias in them. I particularly like how he tries to curry favour with the non-English European coloniser nations by predicting them to be the best of the rest.

He only spent 3 years at Spurs Iā€™d say. Roughly 2008-2011. So he was ā€œdiscoveredā€ at 23ish. I remember first hearing about him being a great talent just before Euro 2008. Croatia played some brilliant football in the group stages before the Turks broke their hearts on pens in the last 8.

he played four full seasons with Spurs.

Oh he did actually. He scored a cracker against Liverpool in the 2011/12 season. 4 years was too long alright.

Harry Redknapp turned him and Bale around

He ran the show in a Euro 08 qualifier vs England. Mclaren was in charge the same night under an umbrella.

I heard on the radio earlier that Ronaldo says his Portuguese international story isnā€™t over yet. Where does it end for him? With Santos dropping him from a squad for the Euros qualifiers?

Iā€™d be very interested to see how his prospective managerial career unfolds.

Guys, Iā€™m gonna save you clicking into this - itā€™s just some Liverpool porn about how good Henderson is at protecting a penalty taker. Yep. You read that right.

Fucking hell.

England woulda won if Hendo hadnā€™t been subbed before the second penalty. Natch.

I believe in you 'Arry. You were born to do this. Be the ball.

Ok Gordon can you fuck off and let me kick the penalty please.

Liverpoool record of winning under Captain Henderson does warrant respect.

A special club

Itā€™s obvious enough why Kane missed. England probably donā€™t even have a specialized throw in coach.

Some Norwegian penalty nerd reckons so, but the usual suspects just go ā€œPaddy Footix this, Paddy Footix thatā€
