I struggle to get excited about Scotland these days. Maybe it is because we really dont have anybody playing with top European club sides. Scotland international standard seems to be being on the bench for an Engkish Championship side. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least half of the team were regular EPL players , one in the Champions League, two still in the latter stages of the Europa League. Unlike a Steve Clarke side we don't play as a team though, Israel looked the more fluid team playing in a shape they were used to. We have some good players, but no outstanding players, playing in goal, central defence, and striker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watch it and try to enjoy it. But I get bored with it and was pleased when Fraser scored last night. But not a patch on watching Killie, and its certainly not the Steve Clarke performances we seen at rugby park 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I take it you haven't watched a Scotland game for a while, we've got a Champions league winner as our captain, numerous players playing regular football in the Premiership and one of the best young talents in Billy Gilmour (Chelsea) wasn't even in the squad, I would suggest we have the most talent now than for a few years and it was very much like a Steve Clarke performance, poor first half then finish the game strongly 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

World cup qualifiers over already IMO. Hate to think what will happen at the Euros. A bit negative but cant see any improvement from previous years.

The last two games away to Israel we were beaten but last night was a draw which if we had taken our chances in the second half probably should have been a win. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also equalled our longest unbeaten run as well. To even try and say we haven't improved is errant nonsense. The question of whether we're good enough to not embarrass ourselves in said major tournament is an entirely separate question. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Killiepies Posted March 29, 2021 Report Share Posted March 29, 2021 We have plenty of decent players.Champion league winner,numerous player who have been involved in or are involved in the knockout stages of European competitions.No Scotland team has ever qualified for the knockout stages of the World Cup or the Euros.Every other home nation has managed that at some point.Qualifying seem as good as it gets and that is now a rarity 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrangodog Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 Will be interesting to see how Wales get on against our first Euro 2021 opponents, Czech Republic tonight. CR looked pretty good against Belgium and probably should have beaten them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonbon19 Posted March 30, 2021 Report Share Posted March 30, 2021 Wales got that little bit of luck tonight which makes all the difference in international matches ,plus a truly international class player . 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
