What Does “It’s Coming Home” Mean?

It’s a mantra that’s gathered steam over the course of the 2018 World Cup, but what does it’s coming home mean? Beginning with Harry Kane’s last-ditch winner against Tunisia, gathering steam in the five-goal first half against Panama, working into a crescendo following the breaking of the dreaded penalty shootout curse against Colombia and reaching a fever pitch following a 2-0 win over world-beaters Sweden, football's now well and truly coming home.

England Has Finally Found A Way To Win — By Being Boring AF

In the early ’90s, pre-Wengerian Arsenal earned a reputation for playing a brand of football that was effective but far from entertaining, resulting in chants of “Boring, Boring Arsenal.” It was a refrain that easily could have been repeated throughout the Three Lions’ campaign in Russia, including at the England vs Sweden match on Saturday in Samara, Russia.

World Cup Predictions For England-Sweden and Russia-Croatia

The White Walkers from Sweden will meet the Three Lions from England. Can England keep this run going while having only scored one decent goal in the run of play? Or will the Swedes squeeze the life out of them? Then we go to Russia vs Croatia. Talk about impropable runs. Russia will try to bounce the heavily favored Croatians and keep Putin happy. WHAT WILL HAPPEN? WE DON'T KNOW, BUT WE'LL DAMN WELL TRY TO PREDICT IT.

Gareth Southgate And England Are Ready For Sweden

After England broke its penalty curse against Colombia, coach Gareth Southgate and the Three Lions are rejuvenated with a new hope. Though England goes against Sweden on Saturday at the Samara Stadium in Russia, there is a question that begs itself to be echoed in the ears of all who cheer for England: 

The Stars Are Aligning For An England World Cup Victory

Historians call the Swinging Sixties the decade that shook Britain. England and its commonwealth had only just begun a greater recovery period after a post-WWII world, the nation’s youth was a rejuvenated generation of a high-spirited character and British rock was redefining music in a way never before seen in history. 

All the conditions were met for a recently Blitzkrieged nation to thrive once again — and the very same stars were aligned in the world of the beautiful game. 

Jordan Pickford’s Water Bottle Helped England Get Past Colombia

Jordan Pickford is the man of the hour. An incredible save during normal time (that funnily enough was not replayed on the live broadcast) and stopping Carlos Bacca’s penalty helped seal the Three Lions passage into a quarterfinal matchup against Sweden.

Why This England Side Is The One To Bring It Home

It’s coming home. At least that’s what just about every English person is saying right now. Laugh at them if you want, but based off how this England side is playing right now, it might actually be coming home.

Many fans would associate England with being one of the most underwhelming sides on the international stage. In terms of World Cup performance, England made the quarterfinals in 2006, followed that up with a Round of 16 finish in 2010 and then in 2014, they failed to make it out of the group stage.
