To be fair I don’t mind it, Scotland were woeful but these teams need to have a go and those smaller teams get a chance to do that in the expanded format. Part of their problem is how hard it is to switch from negative to positive tactics. Awful past the halfway line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UpTheVilla26 Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 No side with Ralston in it should be anywhere near the next round of this tournament. I think they've been lucky to have got 1 point out the 3 games. Best wishes to Varga, hopefully he's OK and it's not as bad as it initially looked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have been a penalty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HongKongVillan Posted June 23 VT Supporter Share Posted June 23 For the players they have which isn't great in depth, I'm just disappointed they way clarke insisted with 5 at the back in all three matches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theboyangel Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 Dreadful tourno for Scotland, the only team that have made England look exciting to watch. I don't know whats happened to Robertson but his form this season has gone rapidly downhill. As for Che Adams, he looked more of a competition winner than the Hungarian No.9 competition winner! Absolutely dreadful performance. Gutted for McGinn but also relieved he can get a deserved rest and didn't pick up an injury. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zatman Posted June 23 Share Posted June 23 4 minutes ago, MaVilla said: how does a squad with Tierney, Roberston, McTominay, McGinn, Adams etc, play like a sunday league side? granted they will never be world beaters, but their squad also isnt as bad as their performances tbh. Tierney got injured but Che Adams is hopeless Scotland issue was they have awful centre backs when Grant Hanley is the star defender. One plays in Copenhagen and other in Gerrardball and was probably convinced is better than Mings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looked like the most blatant penalty you’ll ever see, but I’d be happy to watch any evidence to the contrary. I doubt they'll include it in the highlight videos seeing as it wasn't even reviewed (?) Armstrong to me looked like if he just ran normally in a straight line then it's an all dayer but looks at his body shape, he skips jumps twists never once has control of his own body let alone the ball, he's all over the shop, he jumps in to the defender looking for contact, twists completely unnaturally while also looking like his trying to hook an arm There's obviously contact but Armstrong at no point looks right in what he's doing 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
