Fucking change the record.

Didn't you just say a few days ago that I'm "often right".

Or they can just keep it to themselves.

Look. People are allowed to have a fucking opinion! Just because you don't agree with it doesn't make it garbage.

He 100% would have (I think). My optimism is gone.

Well, if they didn't do that, I would ask serious questions.

They could've swapped sides during the match for all we know, thus, being touch tight.

https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/billy-gilmour-positive-test-sends-24364081 Robertson and McGinn played table tennis with him. It'll just sum up our luck if all three have to self isolate. Fuck sake!

It's a major kick in the teeth. No one in the squad can do what Gilmour can do, to the level he can do it at. There's a reason 100% of the people here wanted him to start all three group matches.

When's the most recent time we played Croatia? Serbia? Penalties. I'm so disappointed. To go out this way is... absolutely gutting.

I think he'll just do what Fleck did. He'll be sequestered to him room for 10 days.

It isn't. McGregor and x might be decent players, but Gilmour is the only who demands and wants to take the ball in tight spaces and from the defence. That was the big difference from both matches. We're fucked.

Could watch this all day.

This Is cruel. If Gilmour is out, we're out. Simple as that.

Another issue was the referee. He was brilliant.

Good man. I'll be watching it either tonight or tomorrow night. I did the same after the Czech match, so maybe it's a good omen.

That's a good point. The one thing that Gilmour gives us is composure. So it gives us the option to mix it up. Look at Spain. All fabulous talents, but all their players pretty much do the same thing. The balance we had in midfield vs England was the key to winning the midfield battle.

Dykes was brilliant in the air against England. Won 9 headers (seemed like more than that), if Adams and McGinn can feed of the flick one, I think we have a chance. If not, as you say, get Fraser or even Nisbet on.

Ryan Christie linked to Nice and Monaco. John McGinn with Liverpool.

lol Well, he is still only 21. He did score 10 in 16 at U21 level so you never know.

Very true. And the amount of shots we had blocked against the Czechs (do they even count?) Was insane Totally. He learned from brilliant coaches (Mourinho, Dalglish... and Gullit and Zola, to a lesser extent) so it's no surprise that he outwitted Southgate. lol. I'll predict the first XI after Clarke names it. 😛

I actually meant teenagers/early 20s. But it's a good point. McBurnie, Adams, etc, are all at good age. That's probably a saving grace, that our current four striker will be together for a good few years, hopefully long enough to strike up a bond.

Since scoring is a big issue, where are the new generation of strikers going to come from? Kyle Joseph - Swansea Ewan Urain - Athletico Bilbao Fraser Hornby - Reims
