Sorry England didn’t get to final but they managed to do something no other team has done and that was bring the country together no matter what sport you follow. They still play on Saturday so I hope we all carry on cheering them on to win! JoM

°

well done england you have played with honour, you brought a broken country together. No need for any shame you have done us proud come home heroes – hold your heads high, England salutes you. Challenger

°

england well done! rest up n look forward to next world cup! god save our queen n bless our team! jaynexx

°

southgate did us proud but at the end of the day the smallest team in the comp had a very profession­al game plan and executed it perfectly, they bullied us till we lost the plot, then played good old fashioned football and hung in there until right at the death wallop! Experience always tells. robtin

congrats to russia they were great hosts for world-cup. Redrobo

There are plenty of positives we can take from England’s world cup exit. We won’t have to witness the embarrassi­ng spectacle of Gareth Southgate being awarded a knighthood just for jumping up and down on the touch line wearing a waistcoat, people will hopefully accept that Kane is a good player but nowhere near world class, and best of all, we won’t have to see our team humiliated by France in the final.

What happened to Harry Lane these last 2 matches. He looks as if he didn’t want to be there. Ambled around with no results. Well done Pickford and well done Gareth Southgate for getting us this far. Caz

°

Here we go excuse time, kane was carrying an injury, pickford wasnt on his game, their an inexperien­ced young side, Blah Blah waffle Blah the only honest man I heard after the game was Gareth Southgate – gracious in defeat no excuses from him.

England had the opportunit­y to win World Cup when Brazil, Argentina & Germany were knocked out but we never took it. We are just not good enough. SCOUSE

°

Sadly it turned out that Kane wasn’t Able after all. The Bible

°

England v Croatia reason we lost Luka Modric class. Few of our lot poor eg Delli Ali and Kane and defence except keeper. Asymmetric­al

°

england were rubbish croatia were even worse and yet won. England style of play has never changed nor will it. big ben. donny

°

Looks like another 52 years until we win World Cup. Havn’t had a decent team or manager since 1966. Get Antonio Conte. MONKEYBOY

°

wot did our goaly shout wen croatia scored? Am sure he said F *?¥ SAKE. Kev in wigan

°

I reckon Pickford is going to have attitude problems when he gets back to the premier league. Bob fife

°

Maguire, Pickford, Trippier Proper Footballer­s. D. Ali wouldn’t get in our Pub Team. Jz

°

Gareth Southgate boasts he’s a leader, only thing he’s ever lead is England out of Euro 96 with a missed penalty! MOOCH fi Methil

°

what a beautiful morning it is, sun is shining and England soon on the plane home. Well played Croatia! Unlucky England hahahahaha­haha.

°

How can England say they are proud and showed the big guy’s, ffs Southgate fixed it so they wouldn’t meet any “big guys” and still fell to the first decent team they played!!! FIFE DAVY

°

Even Gareth Southgate’s playing to lose or “gamesmansh­ip” to fix an easy draw couldn’t see England through against a team just in the top 20 most! funky

°

Flood warnings have been issued across England as the whole of Scotland pishes themselves laughing. FUNKY LEVEN

°

All things considered England got to the semis because our goalkeeper was the best player Koppite Jon

°

i suggest all these bitter scots who are celebratin­g england’s loss should now focus on whether any of their teams can get past the qualifying rounds of next season’s Champions/ Europa Leagues. judy b

Thank you DAILY STAR, for not calling our footballer­s heroes. They’re not, they’re merely footballer­s. Hero’s save lives. PAT THE CAT

°

after losing to Croatia, I take it the England football squad will only b eligible for an MBE and not a Victoria Cross? Lily the pink

°

england think it’s all over, it is now.

So football is not coming home, it never was. Side over-hyped from the word go. TC calling

It’s coming home, it’s coming home. My sofa from S.C.S. Steve Rhyl
