COLT NY Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I'd take Christie off. Thought he was one of our better performers against Israel (which isnt saying much) but he's been rotten today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyBlueScot Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 I'm not having it that our players are not good enough. We have enough about us to beat Israel and the Czech republic when they're this depleted. I support Clarke but I cannot believe he's starting McTominay at the back. Not acceptable. Nobody is closing anything down and McLean is a waste of space. Jack got criticised for passing sideways but he closes down. No McGinn or Tierney is a disgrace. Our two best players are6on the pitch.

Definitely a mentality thing. Even players or managers on the up and with a bit of a buzz about them, 10 minutes with the Scotland 'set-up' and anything positive is sucked Right out of them. Steve Clarke unfortunately the latest victim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are so so poor and if that was their full side they would have pumped us. We have nothing going forward, no movement or creativity. They have every chance of scoring again.

If theyve been rested for anyother reason except injury......well in that case clarke can fuck off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudScot Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Kenny McLean is pants. A big pair of smelly dirty pants you’ve worn for 3 days solid and need to stick in the bin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burj_Alba Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 The defensive midfield is non existent, the goal and the Marshall save came from no one closing down their midfielders. this is where you need McTominey or failing that Jack. Is McLean supposed to be playing in this position? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccaughey85 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 This has been terrible viewing, we should be comfortable against a Czech c team. We have to revert back to a 451 and see if that makes any difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mariokempes56 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Fuk 3 at the back. We're being caught out by a C team time and again. Need to get a 4 4 2 sorted in the hope it csn at least instill some confidence. Another question . Why is McLean picked? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 The work ethic is shocking IMO. We concede so many goals by defenders who can't be arsed to close down advancing strikers allowing them to get shots away. In attack we are so fucking slow supporting in attack and closing down their defence it is unreal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
weekevie04 Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Not a hope in hell of us going to the Euros. If he doesn't change this at half-time, he's surely got to go. I backed him, but fuck me, absolute dross against a team chucked together on Saturday night. Fair dues to the Czechs, they look better.

Orraloon Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 These Czech players can't even get into the squad never mind the first team, and yet their technical ability is far superior to ours. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thplinth Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 The Czechs are mentally similar to their immediate neighbours the Germans in that they are usually (mentally) equipped with superb team player skills. Dont ask me why but they are. Scots on the other hand are equipped with the opposite. The Czechs always amount to more than the sum of their parts. Like the Germans. We always amount to less than the sum of our parts. A team of so called 'B raters' with that ingrained mentality against a full national squad with our 'pillow' mentality... that is just putting their B-Team on speed. 5/1 I saw against a home win... how mental is that after this first half.

exile Posted September 7, 2020 Share Posted September 7, 2020 Just noticed, I think we had 60% possession in first half. And 2 shots on target. 0 corners. Something not right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
