Who are "these sides"? England, France then maybe Croatia and Portugal look the best European sides at the moment but Spain are in transition and we've beaten them already, Germany have just sacked their manager, The Netherlands and Belgium blow hot and cold, Russia are banned, etc. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he not say he'd play Bellingham deeper and Maddison behind Kane? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Both of them were fantastic players in their prime. What the f**k are you on about? 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoBNob Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 I don't think I've ever seen us this far off England, not a shot on target is abysmal. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiGi Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 England have played near their peak and Scotland have thrown in a stinker. It happens but I don't think the gap between the teams is as wide as this game makes it look. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best learning it now before the final few qualifiers. Reveal hidden contents Yes I'm delusional I reckon Georgia losing tonight might be enough for us tbh. Only Norway can catch us now, and they'd need to beat a Spanish side that have score 13 in their last 2 games, and might need the win to have a chance to top the group, to have any chance at doing so. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's room between "qualifying is our silverware" and being as good as England are at the moment. Getting out of a finals group where 3 from 4 can is our silverware 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Saintee Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 We might qualify and qualify well but we're a long way from ever getting near the business end of tournaments. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t really say that though. He said Maddison is much better as a ‘10’ and Bellingham should still be playing in a deeper role he refereed to it being an ‘8’ in modern terms. still absolute nonsense from him though.

Ludo*1 Posted September 12, 2023 Share Posted September 12, 2023 The facts are, England are Scotland's OF equivalent. We, the diddies, need them to be off their game and we need to be at our very, very best with absolutely no one off it. Tonight was the standard OF win against the diddies. The resources they have dwarves ours and it'll never be a level playing field. It's certainly not a disgrace even if it feels like the ultimate kick in the stones. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, he said he'd have both in the team and that Southgate frustrates him because he seems to put the 'handbrake' on England but that Maddison would have started for him if only one tonight. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
