The way Scotland's talent is spread out is extremely non-optimal for a small nation. The ideal setup seems to be having a decent spread of average, hard-working players, and then one or two quality creative or attacking players. If you have no glaring weak spots, and can produce one or two moments of quality per game, you can do reasonably well. Scotland have two elite left backs, several fairly good box-to-box midfielders, two promising but injured right backs, and a couple of decent centre backs. The rest of the squad is pretty much terrible. We are stacked in a couple of positions, but they are positions that don't really win games.

Good to hear

Yeah I thought that was a penalty before for Scotland. Shame for them. Perpetual pain of just not having quite enough quality to compete at this level. Also feel like the quality they do produce is either in defence or out and out goalscorers. Lack of creativity really limits how you can hurt other teams at this level. Support was top notch though.

OH LOOK AT THAT THE STRIKER STRIKES. I'm going to be asking for Fullkrug to start the game until judgement day.

Out of all the times I've seen Vargas for Switzerland, he's seemingly done nothing in any game. Finally scores and it's offside. The wait goes on.

What's the stadium like @Tommy ?
