Scotland v England

Scotland poor defending and poor goalkeeping. Easy for oxlade chamberlain

Get in. I like oxlade-chamberlain. Shame he's never pushed on. None of the arsenal lot have really.
 
Anybody that does it should be booked themselves. Don't know what you'd do with a manager though.
Its another thing, like diving, that's easy to cut out. Only allow the captain to speak to the ref, anyone else does it automatic red card. Would soon cut it out.

That said it should have been a card for that challenge.
 
And again for Scotland. Unbelievable.

I think burge would have got to one of them. Hart slow to move.

Losing 2-1 now. Big mistake not playing Defoe. The best goal-scorer we have.
 
Kane took it well. Poor Scottish clearance just before. How professional players fail to see out a game is beyond me.

Southgate has got to go. Poor tactics, shit football. Players don't look up for it at all.
 
will have a look at the Scottish papers online tomorrow - expect to see headline of Leigh Griffiths attacks Charlie Mulgrew in dressing room!
 
We kept trying to pass it in the net, why can't we shoot outside the box!!
 
Reminded me of the Iceland game. For most of the game we were fine going forward but clueless once we got near the box. The only way they were going to score was from FKs. They were nearly as bad as they were at Wembley during open play. Hopefully Southgate will be watching that over and over again before Tuesday. Could be uncomfortable to say the least.

Yep. Too much fancy Dan, tappy, tappy, flicky, flicky football that consistently didn't work all evening.

Added to that there was a constant lack of creativity from the middle of the park with both Dier and Livermore in defensive roles. Sloppy passing too from the pair and a lot of losing possession.

When Dier first came into the England side I thought we had uncovered a gem, but lately he has been distinctly average and as for Livermore, I simply cannot see an international player in there anywhere.

Rashford had a poor game too.

Draw was a fair result. Scotland didn't threaten at all until those two free kicks. England had enough chances to bury the game (two good saves, clearance off the line, hit the post )

Draw the fairest result.
 
Not as if it is a surprise he gets easily beaten on 30yd free kicks. Wish they'd try an alternative goalie.

Hart's probably the best we've got but hope that two of Butland, Heaton and Forster get a half each on Tuesday.

I don't think you are giving Scotland enough credit.
Every time an English player got the ball they were surrounded by three Scottish players. Scotland pressed really well.
