90 + 2 minutes of my life I won't get back. Not only was it lethargy personified, I had to endure the unfunny McCoist & Dixon double act. Can't beat a team that has a strike force of a Southampton substitute and a QPR journeyman. Fuck off England.

For all the slabbering of being in the top tier...Tierney had Sterling in his pocket all night.

Can't beat a team that has a strike force of a Southampton substitute and a QPR journeyman. Fuck off England. Admit it PU. McGinn and Billy Gilmour bossed that midfield tonight. Kane substituted in humiliation. Another toothless display The problem with Scotland is that their strikeforce is utterly hopeless. Dykes always seems to hit the wall....

Was Kane playing? I thought we started with ten men to give you a chance.

Rewatching the game...begs the question.
Are England in danger of going out at the first hurdle?

Gareth is a nice man but is he a good managerš¤ Exactly right He's not He's had an easy ride from the media but his limitations were there for all to see Well done Scotland - great performance from Adams, Gilmour, Tierney and co England were held at bay far too easily Kane looks totally knackered England have so much young exciting talent who do it week in week out in the Prem and Europe - a better manager would be getting far more out of them They've all but qualified but it ain't coming home

Funny how Gareth's 'lack of managerial skills' weren't pointed out before the tournament!
I think he's a good enough manager. It's the players who aren't doing it.
Kane looks unfit and disinterested but it's early days yet.
The real star was McGinn. This is what Celtic are missing.He was tenacious and tough and the well groomed England boys couldn't handle it.
Still, if Stones' header went in it could have been a different story as David Marshall had nothing to do all night.

Shockingly apathetic display by England. There is zero game plan in our performances. Gareth seems to just think that having superior players and passing it around non stop will suddenly make chances appear, the "be patient" approach taken beyond all meaning. The number of square or back passes was frankly embarrassing and I am not sure Scotland will get a better chance of getting a win than they did last night. Everyone in the country apart from Southgate thought that Grealish should have started and when he was finally bought on who was taken off? Foden was was magnificent in the amount of ground he covered trying to make something happen. Hope Scotland qualify but I would worry about the quality of finishing were I a supporter. A France or Belgium would have got half a dozen past us last night.

Yes. Agree with everything you've posted there Doug
Rogue, I mentioned Southgate's limitations on this discussion before the tournament (see first page of the discussion). I have never been convinced by him. Too conservative and one dimensional
England should have beaten Croatia in the semi in Russia - they'd still most likely have lost to France in the final but Croatia were there for the taking, especially with England going one up
As also said, I'm not fussed about the national team but it does frustrate me watching a team who have so much talent not being well managed
With five subs Southgate has so much leaway. I'd like to have seen Sancho and Saka come on too. Kane should have come off much earlier, arguably he should not even have played given he looked like he was running through treacle.
