Inverted 1,776 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 There are 4 subs still to make and there are multiple game changers on the bench, Clarke needs to have some balls here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lucas 3,827 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Weirdly, if Scotland do bag and give themselves at least a good 10mins to find another, you wouldn't back against them. They are finding openings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inverted 1,776 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 The Czechs are quite shit which is the most frustrating thing. They just have a good striker who has decided he's winning today. And we started with an eleven where exactly nobody has any nose for goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil 1,179 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 The Adams decision has ultimately been bad, he's shown more in the 20 minutes he's been on than any other attacking Scotland player. He should have started. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a rare occurrence to even get the opportunity, let alone execute it to how Schick did it with that much power and swerve. I think you're hugely underrating it.

Danny 2,206 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 If Scotland get back into this then it’s an exciting game to watch, if they don’t then their tournaments over as quickly as it started. Win win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverted 1,776 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 McGregor has come on to continue his season-long form of spraying shite backpasses around, killing the game completely, while Champions League winner Billy Gilmour sits on the bench. Nice one, Stevie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is actually my point. Messi's header would lose out to this goal in most goal of the tournament polls simply because seeing a long ball going is aesthetically more good looking than a header without going in technicalities of it.

Inverted 1,776 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 Really, just get Clarke to fuck after this tournament. The Adams sub was a small mercy but everything else has been a disaster. You've got 5 subs, in an emergency situation, at home, against a side which is on the ropes. Rather than bring on our best talents and using the energy of the crowd to try and do something special, in a historic game for this generation, he sticks to his old favourites Fraser and McGregor who are both bang out of form. With a day like today, you can lose, fair enough. But just completely killing any hope or enjoyment is unforgivable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inverted 1,776 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 I can forgive a manager like Southgate or Loew making uninspiring choices, because they're under pressure to go deep into tournaments and will get slated for risks that don't pay off. But all anyone wanted of Clarke was a bit of enjoyment and excitement, and he's honestly did his damnedest to take that away from us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem is that Clarke is the kinda personality that will settle for being able say "we made enough chances to win" in hindsight, rather than doing everything he can during the game to try and create as many chances as possible. Some people will watch a chance being missed and think "ah well" and some will think "ok, where's the next chance coming from?". Clarke is the former.

ScoRoss 800 Posted June 14, 2021 Share Posted June 14, 2021 We need to clone McTominay. He's needed in defence and midfield. Kinda expect him to be forced back into defence for the remaining games. I just can't figure out Jack Hendry. His confidence is completely up and down throughout an entire match, and almost always at the wrong time.
