You obviously rate both Hamren and this Sweden team a lot higher than me, Chris. I find nothing special about either. Hamren is a great coach by Scandinavian standards, but he's nothing more than decent by European ones imo. The Swedish team is also just decent, except for Zlatan of course.
They obviously have a shot to get through to the quarter-finals, with a subpar England and a overrated France as the biggest threats to their success at the group stage of the tournament, and I really hope the Swedes get through to the next stage, along with England, but I think they will just miss out, sadly. Hope they can prove me wrong though.

In defence of both teams, they were both attrocious at the last WC and neither team wanted to get beat and maybe go home again to a dissapointed country. In England we are not expecting anything from this team. What we want is a team that tries and doesn't leave embarrassed like last time. If we get through the group stage I think that is all we would like.
Also yes we played defensively, but on the few times we had a chance to do anything a French player cynically brought down the player and the referee ignored it. He was happy (like a lot of referees are) to give yellow cards for mistimed challenges. which for some reason referees think are more serious that a deliberate tread on the ankles or pull or shove just at the time a player is making a break. It ruins good games.
Boring maybe for a neutral but not me. In fact all the games have been good in some way so far.

^It seems to me that the Swedes have been a little cocky lately, talking about medals and even gold. I hope they don’t bring that attitude with them to the field.

I can. I can also see how they will have problems with Ukraine later this evening. What I can't see is how Sweden will get through to the next round.

Atrocious match. It seems England want to be the new Italy, doing absolutely nothing with the ball. France is not even close to being a good team either. Horrendous.
