Had to endure McCoist and Souness totally bias pre match pap about how they can match us man for man man. We should fear them etc etc.

55 mins in and it's the normal men against boys when it comes to it! As always Scotland good on paper.....

This Scotland team would be mid table in the Championship at best.

Of course they are going to be biased, they are both jocks. Half time both were fair and said England have been the better side


6 play in the premier league, 3 in the championship


Yet, they could be the first side to qualify for the euros. In a group with Spain. They’ve done well enough

Harry Maguire is having quite a time at the minute.

He did ok at Hull, not bad at Leicester and got a very surprising move to Man Utd on massive money and now well down the pecking order, he's usually always played well enough for England though. If the errors he makes at club level are mirrored when he's in an England shirt, he won't be for long.

[Bonnyman]

He isn't technically good enough,we have some proper players though and Kyle Walker just gets better what a career he has had

Bellingham wow just wow,potential world player of year one day

The way he's playing and scoring for fun in La Liga it could be this season. Now Messi has gone to the US retirement home and CR7 has chased the cash the only players that could possibly compete are Mbappe & Haaland.

Yep, he’s some player that lad. And only 20.


He’s gonna be the man that takes the crown from Messi

[spireitetoo]

Sorry mate bias is fair enough but some degree of reality needs to come into the guff...

Worth every penny...

[DOUGLAS JARDINE]

Bellingham could do for us one day what Zidane did for France

Truly world elite level

[The Earl of Chesterfield]

Our northern neighbours have enjoyed some truly amazing results recently, but McCoist was right to say they're still two or three levels below England.

Thought we were in control for eighty out of ninety minutes in fact, much of which we spent in second gear.

Hell - the only attempt on target they enjoyed was Maguire's og.

Bellingham can be owt he wants. Stunning talent.

Southgate has simply got to turn this embarrassment of riches into a trophy...

[Benno Spire]

Fair play to Southgate bringing on Maguire to give the Scots a chance

[StaffsSpireite]

To be fair to Souness post match he is raving about Bellingham and the England team and says they really should win a trophy with this squad.

Lacks the tactical nouse.


Would be nice to see him make in game changes that improved things or countered opponents tactics but not seen evidence of that yet.



In spite of not because of

[Bonnyman]

I actually think it's a good Scotland side and they beat a few past england teams
