MikeyGC Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Watching us pass it around the back terrifies me. Retained the ball well at times however have created next to nothing! Fantastic double save from Marshall however, we are truly spoilt with our selection of keepers! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewelk Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 At the beginning of the match it was all embarassing strip jokes from my italian inlaws. At the end of the first half it's more amazement about how any team can't even get a shot on goal against one of their crapiest teams ever.

Aye, we've got a good batch at the moment but going by his performance this afternoon, if Jordan Archer is the future of Scottish goalkeeping then it isn't a bright one.

In our minds we'll always be far far better than that but in the minds of the rest of the world we're not so far. The cheap barras looking strips don't help that image.

weekevie04 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 This isn't a strong Italian team. I think we can have no complaints about not qualifying. Watching us tonight is what I imagine it is for a Liechtenstein, San Marino fan - just we are professional players. No idea what we gain from playing these games, we certainly don't learn anything, or if we learn anything, it's that we are not very good and can't compete against top and second seeded teams. We really should have played the likes of Albania, Hungary, Iceland or Armenia - at least we might have gave them a game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest faircity Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 Ive no idea what scotland are all about, we are turning into a very unwatchable team. Playing a counter attacking game without actually trying to counter. Seem happy to let the opposition make all the play and just see how things end up.

Clyde1998 Posted May 29, 2016 Share Posted May 29, 2016 I've just switched on - wasn't inspired by the formation. Looked to be 4-6-0, with McCormack as an "attacking" midfielder. From what I've seen, it feels like a training match for Italy. I'm a bit concerned about playing England in the qualifiers at the moment, tbh...

It's quite an important match for a lot of the italian players because it's the last match to get themselves through to judges houses. Those players are taking it seriously.
