Nevermind what I said about England being favourites then.

England always do better when expectation is low as fuck (like at the last world cup)

Bookies making us favourites probably cursed our national side.

Embarrassing performance though from these players. Ultimately, the blame lies with the manager who I think has always been tactically out of his depth at this level - but I think started to believe his hype after fluking his way to a semi final. But holy shit, that was abject.

Foden, Kane, Sterling - hang your fucking heads in shame. And that midfield, utter crap.

Well, this was no doubt a poor result for us. But credit to Scotland, they played very well and were arguably the better side on the night. We will really have to up our game now for England's last game of the group against the Czechs.

Scots would have won if they had a better attacker. Someone like Robbie Keane etc 

Why would you want a guy from Australia to play for your team? Like its not even the top sport down under, must be really shit if he had to come to Scotland to play football.

Honestly so bad, imagine that against Italy or Portugal. Get mullered.

Persisting with Kane when he’s clearly unfit, all he done was walked, got tackled and misplaced passes. Yet he’s kept on until the final quarter of the game.

Foden subbed off even though Sterling was poor? Get Sancho on as well.

Rice not urgent enough with the ball and only passed sideways, Phillips too high up the pitch to affect the game. Wing backs barely attacked the game, Mount poor too.

Grealish wasn’t great, difficult to come into a game like that and effect it but all he done was draw free kicks.

Of course we all knew this team is not a favourite to win the competition but to see us shoot ourselves in the foot against a Scotland side that couldn’t score a goal for love nor money is bad.

Shit from Southgate, he has five subs and more than a few deserved to be withdrawn there. 

Foden and Kane weren't great but let's not sit here and defend Sterling, Mount and the two holding players. 

I'd have taken off Kane for Calvert Lewin, Sterling for Rashford and Foden for Sancho. Also Mount for Grealish. 

Piss poor. Clearly we have a manager playing favourite players even though they aren't in form. 

We will go out first knockout.

Can bash England all you want but that was a disciplined performance from Scotland. 

And? Disciplined or not, England should be able to get past Scotland.
