I see what you're saying, but moment-to-moment during that game, we were so flat and laborious both in attack and defense and that was present from the first minute. So, it's not surprising whatsoever that the crowd eventually lost patience and the blame for that primarily resides with the management's approach to the game.

 

Mings' interview afterwards also suggested the players just weren't really that motivated and if that's an issue facing Scotland for the first time in how many years in a major competition at Wembley, then that's very strange and suggests complacency in the set-up. 

 


It’s not surprising, sure, I was groaning on my couch after all. But when you’re at the game you’re actively participating in the match, and whether it’s “justified” or not, you’re decreasing the chances of your team winning. And that is a #fact.

yeah, which is why I am really not understadning this rimming of Billy Gilmour. Our midfield is ass, and yeah he can pass five yards pretty well. This always happens.

He was superb considering it was his first start for Scotland. No one is rimming him we are just excited about the prospect of him in a Scotland midfield in the coming years. 
 

Compare the plaudits Gilmour got to the ‘rimming’ Phillips got after the Croatia game. Incomparable but that’s your English media for you. Complete hype and low & behold he was shite against Scotland

Admiring Scotland's organization there. Sterling had only one option to pass and even if he had taken that pass, it is not like the player (Reece James?) had many other options to pass through. Scotland were easily marshalling and marking the players in the center.

It's ironic that someone so racist would name himself Alien. [emoji38]

England, France, Spain, Portugal, Germany all dropping points. At least three of them have had proper stinkers too, so it's not just us. Hopefully we'll feel buoyed by this, take the Scotland game as "we avoided disaster," and overcome the tactical mishaps going into our last game. A good win and it's game on again, but I wouldn't rule out another draw against an opponent that will surely be confident. 

 

Italy looking strongest so far.

Mind you, if we do draw against Czech Republic I can't say I'd fear any one of Spain/Slovakia/Poland/Sweden. As long as it's not another stinking performance, a draw might do very nicely indeed.
