Scotland v Ukraine

I've been his biggest fan, but some genuinely fucking abysmal play from Robertson in that second half. A player who is incredibly effective in Liverpool's system, but watching some of these Ukraine players you realise we're still miles off it technically. Absolutely schooled.

Terrible performance that can't be hidden by a wee rally at the end.
Clarke got the line-up and set-up wrong and the players - to a man - underperformed.
World Cup being mid-season is shite enough and we won't even be playing at it.
Some of those players looked like they were on holiday.

That was back to watching Scotland under Levein, Strachan and McLeish - defensively shite and about as much threat as a chihuahua in a bullring.

Embarrassing

Ukraine could easily had 5 or 6.

Played with zero tempo until 70 minutes 

Defended like haddies.

Delivery into the box was terrible.

One in the opposition box most of the time.

No runners into the box or down the sides.

Miles short.

And that is one reason why all this cringeworthy, embarrassing, hand-wringing "let Ukraine win" shite should have been binned from day 1.

They were more than good enough to teach us a footballing lesson tonight without us giving them a fucking thing.

The hard truth is that at the moment we're a 3rd tier nation.

Good enough to compete with the Austria's etc but when we come up against a team like the Czechs, Croatia and Ukraine we're not good enough.

Our players looked leggy, nervous and our system was non-existent.

Christie made a difference when he came on but way too many didn't turn up tonight when it really mattered.

The better team by a country mile, won tonight and Wales will do very well to compete on Sunday.

You're the same walloper who claimed we had 6 or 7 world class players a few months ago.

Not sure it mattered who he picked. Bit a single player near their usual level. Was a cup final for them, and a post season annoyance for our guys
