Probably no, but we should expect us to be capable of not being 3 down so easily, and looking so poor at the back. Other teams, like Northern Ireland, Wales, etc, are disciplined and at least have a coherent gameplan.

Just made it 4 f**k

As I see it there is a clear and coherent game plan. Which is being undone by the no1 ranked team in the world. Honestly I don't understand what people expect.

N Ireland were shite for a long long time under O'Neil

We need to setup in a different way and I think Clarke will realise that.

We're miles too open. But we also need some better defenders back from injury (or to appear from somewhere).

At the risk of repeating myself, what I expect isn’t to beat the likes of Belgium, but I sure as hell expect us not to have a second arse ripped in about half an hour.

Then go back and take issue with whoever started the discussion.  Or better still, stop being a dick.

Take responsibility for your own posts rather than blaming someone else. “It wisnae me. It was that bad boy who started it.”

Thought steve clarke was hired on the basis that his killie team were hard to beat? And he would make us like that?

I’m not blaming clarke or saying that clarke should go. Some of The players we have just aren’t good enough to be competing at this level. We have a good midfield, but defensively and upfront we are poor and have been for several years. We don’t seem to have the physicality or technical ability to compete against teams like belgium and that comes from a lack of investment in a decent coaching system.
I used to love going to scotland games, the atmosphere was fantastic, you had hope (even if it got destroyed after 3 games) but now with every passing campaign, we either stand still or get worse.

f**k all point resting our hopes on a place at the Euro's through the nations league. No chance we are beating any of the sides we could be facing. 

I reckon a few of the teams from the bottom tier would probably give us a beating.

Kosovo, Azerbaijan and obviously Georgia and Kazakhstan.

Definitely a different set-up - our midfielders are all too similar - we need a beast in midfield (not McTominay) to do the donkey work and protect the defence.

Ngl, we're playing the best team in the world tonight and given outside of the importance of this result, it's about what I would expect sadly.

I will say this however (although I know I will get disagreements which is fair), we have a back up plan which literally asks us to beat either Finland or (hopefully) Bulgaria at home once without a reverse fixture, and then either Norway or Serbia at home once without a reverse fixture. We have home advantage in any game we play in the play-offs, and I feel like we can handle these teams. I am happy to be the only one not devastated after tonight, as Scotland are in a way better position as my club is in terms of achieving their goals.
