They were very good defensively but doesn't make up for how fucking shite we were, Hanley, Cooper & McTominay should be banned from the country

When McTominay moved upto centre mid he became one of our best players. 

 

That system just quite simply doesn't work without Tierney, Cooper just hasn't got the quality to perform that role.

Can we now put to bed the notion of playing Left Backs at RB/RWB...  🤦‍♂️

As i said earlier - folk who have actually watched Hickey at RB have all been fairly consistent in saying he isn't that great there. The only folk saying otherwise were essentially fanboys who just didn't want that to be true.

To a man/woman, when the team was announced, almost all agreed with the 2 up front.  Like Tom English on RS just now, the hindsight thing is brilliant.  Ukraine were technically superior to us tonight.  End of. 

Technically, tactically...just better.

Clarke’s inability to not play the exact same formation every game is staggering. We were so rigid and easy to play against. You don’t even have to move to mark our players. 

What a huge difference when we had players playing between the lines like Ukraine had with Yarmolenko.

Rubbish. Hickey out off position and naw ready for a game like that. Defence all over the place . 

 

Well beaten.

Hickey was fine i thought, compared to the more seasoned pros at least.

I'm expecting better from Hanley, Robertson, McGinn to start with. Hopefully that ends McMuffin in defence , looked much better in midfield.

Would have been daylight robbery had we even taken that to extra time. 

A world cup spread out over the US, Canada and Mexico sounds much more appealing anyway.

Our formation allows players to play between the lines
