Scott The Scottish Player - Pivotal

Does Scotland keeping England to 0-0 say more about him or England?

ETH is hardly likely to come out and say he wanted to get rid but he’s stuck with the useless stump for another window.

probably hanging from a rope. as we all would be having to watch mourinho's shite football for six years.

Fletcher was miles better

McT is shite

I'm amazed you haven't listed Wan B in that list who is, in fact, the player who lacks all technical attributes required of a footballer

By that rationale, does Ireland beating Scotland 3-0 say more about him or Scotland?

You've done me there I do apologise.

he's dogshit.

will be fine if ETH actually defines his role. He tried to do so much and cover so much ground for lazy @#%&!s.

When he had structure and a job to do he was really good. Can actually score too.

Good shot on him nqat. Defo keep as squad back up - energy and workrate are 1st class (compared with most in our squad) but the application thing is lacking obvs.

He also needs to put about two stone on and build up his body.

that would make him less mobile

Yeah I'm not keen on this bodybuilding preseason some of them have had.

Modric is practically a leaf.

Modric is practically a leaf.

Football has changed, even over the last decade.

Physicality has almost been referee’d out of the game.

We’ve spent most of the last 10 years getting out-muscled, out-ran and out-fought, regularly, by everyone.

Bernardo Silva knocking Matic over, AWB getting flattened by Foden, Bruno practically incapable of staying on his feet and all of them terrified of having to sprint.

Let them get fit and strong for a change imo.

As it is for the vast majority of our squard from last season!

Deserves respect

Played well and not just breaking up play, he played some lovely passes. He’s still got a role to play in this squad.

Played well. He’s a good lad, but he can’t pass.

Good squad player. As much shit as him and The Brazilian Player get, I don’t actually want either of them to leave. Just not starting every game.

Good tonight but he does this regularly. Has a good game followed by 10 shit performances

Played alright but you replace him with Our new signing and we’re instantly improved
