    He's got the last four European winners of the world cup on his side of the draw. A total genius

    Although 2 of the 3 from Italy, Spain & Germany will already be out by the time England would have to face them.

    If England play as they did during the group stages then they may find this a harder draw than Portugal, who would have given them far more space and chances.

    Well done Iceland. Tiny like us and started their rise at a similar time so hard not to like them.

    Tiny, yes. Though the population of Iceland is similar to the population of Cardiff rather than the whole of Wales.

    Good to see some smaller countries doing well.

    As so many results have shown the form book has gone out of the window , so far, in this tournament.
    However,with it now becoming a knock out format maybe we will see a change in approach from the contestants.
    It's certainly been interesting and enjoyable so far but now it becomes cut throat.

    All the English pundits and media are in dreamland.... acting as if they have got to the quarter finals already.

    If Iceland defend as they have done, and break as they have done, and England huff and puff as they have done, and Roy shows his mastery in team selection as he has done..... there might just be one almighty embarrassment on the cards on Monday!

    Good luck Gunnar and Iceland.

    Iceland finished above the Dutch in qualifying. They finished above Austria and Portugal (both top 10 in FIFA rankings) in their group. Still they get no respect from some in the English media.

    Danny Mills on Radio Five Live already has England in the quarter finals and said England have yet to play anyone decent. He seems to forget who topped the group. Tosser.

    England conceded 2 goals in 3 games where the opposition barely attacked.

    Iceland "basically just defend" Rio Ferdinand said. Iceland scored 4 goals in the tournament so far. One more than England.

    Can't see it. The limited sides will continue to park the bus and hope to get lucky up the other end.

    Who can blame them, you can't go toe to toe, it's just suicide

    England gamestyle is far better suited to Portugal or a bigger Country.
