lubo_blaha Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 4 minutes ago, DAFC. said: Yep. That's exactly what I said. If that was a Norway or Sweden, they'd have won it. We have some weird fetish with throwing away results. Is that the same Norway who couldn’t score against Kazakhstan? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gaz Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 1 minute ago, DrewDon said: It was another good - occasionally very good - performance, I thought, like against Poland. But we probably needed it to be almost flawless to win. It just feels like every individual error is being punished for Scotland at the moment - and at least four if not all five of the goals conceded this week have been more individual than collective. Dykes, Gilmour and Hanley all outstanding, with basically every other player at a good to very good level. Pretty much my take on it as well. I don't think anyone expected Scotland to be at the highest tier of an international competition. We are by far and away the weakest side at this level. To have any chance of winning games we need to be near enough perfect. And we're not good enough for that. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Father Ted Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 14 minutes ago, KirkieRR said: Lessons of tonight: we don't have good strikers but we're much better attacking than defending. Dykes is good at what he does. Adams is relentless but after that it drops off a cliff. Neither are prolific but if they can play in midfielders we have a chance. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 (edited) 5 minutes ago, Scosha said: I honestly think we need a restart, emptying Clarke and getting someone else. Aye, there’s individual errors, but those individuals are still being given starts after making game changing errors. There is no fear of being dropped, Clarke picks his favourites and it’ll never change. We’ve played well at times, but at club level a manager would’ve been emptied for this run of games without a win. Not going to debate the part, about having "favourites" etc, even though I disagree, because it's been well discussed on here. However, would a club manager really be sacked for a run of eight games without a win? Derek McInnes has gone seven domestic games without a win and is nowhere near it for us.

DAFC. Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 (edited) 6 minutes ago, craigkillie said: The Norway that lost to us from 1-0 up with 5 minutes to go? Or the Sweden in League C? I'm throwing arbitrary names out that have players at a similar, or probably better, level than ours. Being in League A means f*ck all. England are still miles better than us but are in League B. Or does that not fit the narrative? Edited September 8 by DAFC. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is it not something like one win in fifteen, and that a labored victory against Gibraltar? We're serial losers now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eez-eh Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 8 minutes ago, HuttonDressedAsLahm said: That’s not the clever riposte you think it is. Germany game was the last where goals that didn’t come from unforced errors. Before that it was probably Georgia away; maybe Norway at home. Every other goal has been some sort of self-inflicted error. If you analyse every single goal enough you’ll find a self-inflicted error in it. Morgan getting skinned, Hanley being out of position, McKenna losing his man at the winning goal are all errors but none of them are absolute howlers that have you sitting there in disbelief. It’s just poor defending all round but we’re at the stage where people are desperate to pinpoint individuals. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkoRaj Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Really disappointing goal to lose at the end but you couldn't have argued if any one of about 5 clear chances had gone in before that. Definitely positives to take from both games. I think we can aim to get something from all of our remaining games. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DukDukGoose Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 Clarke has won me over a bit with the past two games. Certainly wasn't as cowardly as the Euros and he can hardly be blamed for individual errors. My main issue is we'll play like the past two games, somehow reach the World Cup then shite it again. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theroadlesstravelled Posted September 8 Share Posted September 8 (edited) A real back to the wall, battling performance from Scotland. The best we've played as a team in a long time but we realistically should have been on the end of a heavy pumping. To be fair to CR7, he still knows where the net is at 39.
