Play for a win

Think you are overlooking our defence

Play any sort of expansive game and the likes of Rashford, Vardy, Walcott and Sterling will roast us

We have very little pace - they have plenty

And as for high tempo - they are capable as the match at Parkhead showed - we are not

What we'll do is sit in, try and be compact and keep it tight. Unfortunately we've a complete absence of tactical nous so will leave our centre backs exposed 1 vs 1 at some point and we'll lose a goal, probably inside 20 minutes. 

Then we'll keep playing the same way until the same happens and we lose another. Then we'll open up a bit and attack half arsedly, without pressing properly when we don't have the ball, and lose another couple 

England 4-0 Scotland. 

Strachan - GTF.

I understand what your saying about our tactics and think you are right but not sure England have 4 goals in them . Only 2 v Malta and very late goal v Slovakia . Also agree about Strachan   win ,lose or draw

My worry is they are gonna give someone a gubbing at some point and it ends up being us on Friday. As Ally says above, they have pace all over the front positions, well bar Kane, and I dread the thought of Hanley getting caught the wrong side of any of their fast forwards. Which considering he turns like an oil tanker is a certainty at some point.

Aye didnt think Fletcher would come out with that even if he privately thought it.  No matter what McGee/strachan or whoever comes out with in the press im pretty sure morale must be pretty low amongst the squad because of last month.  Its a 100 % must win game and if they just prodominantly sit back from the off and hardly get up the park it will be another slap in the face.

this is an average championship team against a top four premiership team and its away from home in a derby, we are going to get pumped, as said england are due to give someone a pumping and there is more than a good chance its going to be us. 

Depressing person.

In a group of only 10 games and almost half already played after the england game, when the f+ck does a game become must win

This is exactly what will happen
