Why we wont win tournaments - the dynamics of the side are wrong - where are the goals in the team? I know we scored 2 but thi sis Scotland. We will qualify, but it shows you how we struggle to break teams down in tournaments. And how the manager doesn't understand that you need more goals on the pitch and you need more options when things are not working. Rooney's quality means he has to play or be an option at least but Southgate is just a mundane boring manager. I have always said he should not have been given the job until after quaifying.
Seems the way Sothgates England play, get I. Front, look totally comfortable, miss a number of decent chances, concede late. not conceded late in every one of his games, but have definitely risked it in every one
Craig Gordon is an awful goalkeeper. If they had anyone else in goal they would have won that.
This all day. That was the worst standard of goalkeeping in an international match I've ever seen.
Marshall or McGregor would be much better options.
To be honest even with a better 'keeper Scotland are a million miles off of having a team that can qualify, Tiernay is the only half decent player IMO.
Should a keeper really be getting beaten from that far out , twice, when the the free kicks lacked any real height or speed. Id like to think there's at least a few English keepers out there who'd save both. Funnily enough I don't rate Griffiths but thought he was Scotland's best player today. Hassled all game which is key against our awful back four.
