Man of Honour
Appalling performance yesterday; we (Scotland) looked like we could have taken another 30 shots on goal and still not scored.
Very disapointting but not all that surprising.

Henderson out, Ramsdale in.

Guess that means Pickford's definitely the keeper for the rest of the tournament.

Every man and his dog knows Henderson is not really injured. Pickford will be number one for this tournament but for the world cup I expect Henderson to be number one if he gets number 1 status at United.

Czech Republic are a good side and can quite easily win this group and beat England..
England team vs Scotland, what do we reckon Angles? Over 5 days since the Croatia game so players should be fairly well rested. Key talking point seems to be whether Trippier gets replaced with a LB, he has a tendency to (understandably) cut inside a fair bit which could slow our attacks at times.
Personally I'd like to see Trippier replace walker at RB and bring in Shaw.
I reckon he might start Grealish against Scotland, just to try and keep legs a bit fresher but then again, he probably won't want to drop Sterling. Does Grealish ever play on the right/middle for Villa? Could drop Foden.
Hopefully Kane is okay and up for it on Friday!

They are ranked 40th, they are not a great side and it would be a massive shock if they did.
No. They could win, of course this is football and anything can happen but it would be a shock.
Saying the Czech Republic can EASILY win the group and beat England is quite frankly stupid. It’s not very likely that they’ll do either.

I was expecting Scotland to beat Czech Republic, they’re weren’t that great a side and we had home advantage to some degree, but at the end of day you can have all the chances in the world but it counts for nothing if you don’t put them away.
Croatia looked ordinary as well, so I would be disappointed to not take at least a point from them.

Schick/a decent striker was the only difference between the two sides yesterday but I can't see either causing England any trouble.
Because he isn't a good manager, his 'success' at the world cup was very very lucky, we got a very easy route to the semi and everytime we played anyone worth anything we lost (twice to Belgium and once to Croatia), his squad and team selections are baffling and then when you see the comments of "I'll only pick players on form not name" he completely ignores that (yes I know every manager says it but still), I'm looking forward to Englands collapse and him losing his job in the aftermath.
It does doesn't itGoodness, you make it sound as though he ran off with your missus!
Honestly I was talking to my Welsh cousins the other day (was at a funeral so obviously football was the talk instead of what we were attending) and I said it's so disappointing that when the Premier League has progressive managers with Pep, Bielsa and Klopp that the FA went for a younger Fat Sam with archaic tactics.
Caporegime
The FA basically gave him the England job as counselling for his penalty miss all those years ago because they felt sorry for him. I'm also looking forward to an early exit and his demise although an early exit for all teams with Liverpool players would be nice.

Well France just went big sam mode as well. Is Deschamps also trash....
