Disappointed Sweden are going through. Think they will be a tougher opponent (If we go through).

Man for man yes but Sweden are a very organised outfit and the sort of team who would frustrate us. They aren't a great footballing team but they are very hard to beat and score against.

True, but I still fancy us against them. I would too. IF we go through, it will be a tougher game than people think. Yes, we would take it in a quarter final but they have beat France in qualifying. Japan, Mexico and Switzerland in this tournament and should have done better against Germany (should have had a pen). Hard to score against and well organised.

They also got beat 3-2 by Bulgaria in qualifying and only scored one against Luxembourg.

They are a very defensive outfit so struggle more against teams who will sit back. They want to defend and counter hence better results against better teams. P.S they also beat Italy in the play off match and beat Luxembourg 8-0. The 1-0 you refer to was nearly 2 years ago.

Quite possibly but wouldn't be the cake walk that most people and the bookies will likely suggest. Anyway let's hope it is a problem we have to worry about. Tonight won't be easy but it depends which Colombia turn up too. They are one of my favourite teams to watch on their day, really exciting but they have been hit and miss in this world cup.

Hope you can cope with the pressure - the expectations of the nation on your shoulders!
