Poor game, England played at too slow a tempo. Scotland celebrated at the end but they’ll be out after the next game against Croatia

Good times to be a Welsh fan 😄

ain't that the truth

There’s no doubt in my mind, with the rub of the green England have the players to win these Euro’s, unfortunately for them, they have a manager that won’t get them anywhere near it. Taking Foden off and leaving Stirling on. What’s that about? Fair play to Scotland, they were superb!

England have about as much chance of winning it as someone like the the Netherlands.

I'd put them below Belgium, Spain, Germany, Italy, Portugal and France in the runnings.

I'm basing that on how they play as a team, not on the fact they have some individuals who can have moments of brilliance.

That’s why I said ‘with the rub of the green.’ 👍🏻
I agree with you on where England are.

It must be frustrating to support England. They have all those talented attacking players, but Southgate sets them up to play with the handbrake on.

Re: FT: ENGLAND 0 - 0 SCOTLAND.

Thank god the FA's golden boy Southgate is managing that group of players. They'll never win anything with him in charge the blokes clueless

England's players always seem overwhelmed by the fact that they are playing for England.

The performace tonight proved that Southgate is useless.

England should be on the attack from the start. They were never on the attack. They didn't even try.

Quite pathetic.

Maybe everything about England and its players are vastly overrated?

Re: FT: ENGLAND 0 - 0 SCOTLAND.

What amuses me on here. There was a thread a while back on Peter Shilton, and how whilst he admires Maradona's ability, he could never forgive his cheating. Shilton got it really tight in that thread, whilst we have plenty of posters who still can’t seem to forgive Joe Jordan. Hypocrisy at it’s best.
I’m no big Jock supporter, but i’d take them to **** England any day of the week!

Re: FT: ENGLAND 0 - 0 SCOTLAND.

I watch very few England games because they often coincide with us playing and so, the opening half an hour or so against a tepid Croatia apart, I've been quite surprised at how slow, unimaginative and dull they've been. They seem to have gone backwards since the last World Cup where they were pretty good but a bit lucky to go as far as they did - I don't like saying it, but they do have a lot of attacking talent, yet Southgate seems to have forgotten this and there is a caution to their game which means they aren't as good as they could be.
Scotland on the other hand, have been impressive up until they get into the final third. They take me back to when Welsh fans (like me!) used to say before the 2016 tournament that they'd be happy if we scored a goal - Scotland certainly don't look one of the worst eight teams in the tournament, but you have to wonder whether they have a goal in them.

Re: FT: ENGLAND 0 - 0 SCOTLAND.

I think England may bounce-back. Opening games can be a bit nervy and last night was a bit of a one-off for them. I think they’ll probably improve into the tournament but will need to let the shackles off.

Scotland’s team is pretty solid imo. If Adams can get his eye in I think they have a decent chance v Croatia.

Re: FT: ENGLAND 0 - 0 SCOTLAND.

I can see Kane turning things around and bagging a few goals.

England should play Grealish instead of Rice or Phillips.
