Ten mins into #ENGSWI and it's probably fair to say England have been a bit brighter than in recent games. They haven't lulled me to sleep just yet, at least.

England just won on penalties and I think I can hear four horsemen outside the door.

Right then. England in a semi final. What could possibly go wrong??

I hate VAR.

England, with their commanding 1-1 lead sit in a low block with a solid six at the back. Confidence.

I am fairly sure that the only sense in which football is 'coming home' is that it has bought a retirement spot on the Costa del Sol.
