Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 An abysmal display from 1-11. No point singling out individuals when the whole team is as bad as that. That said, Hendry and Hanley were so bad it's hard to find words for it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gordon plays it to Hanley, who plays it to Hendry, who then plays it into a man-marked John McGinn, who loses the ball. Repeated the whole fucking game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendry's passing was awful the whole half. Bad choices, bad pace on the ball, misdirected. Hanley was as well but you expect that. The marking at set pieces was grim as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendry has somehow built an ill-deserved reputation as a centre back who can pass the ball. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dalglish and Hansen, both multiple European Cup winners, got the same treatment. Alan Hansen in a Scotland shirt deserved every bit of criticism that came his way, he was a disaster from first cap to last... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worse than the Faroes game where we were 2-0 down after 10 minutes? Worse than some of the friendlies under Bertie and Burley? Impressive. I’ll need to watch the highlights to see just how rotten we were. Sadly my man, it really was. We were utter shadows tonight. 4 hours ago, Ervin H Burrell said: Without question, it belongs in that same company. 4 hours ago, Grangemouth Bairn said: It was I’m afraid mate. Mon now.

Bogbrush1903 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 I think we got taste this evening of what would've happened if we had somehow managed to get past Ukraine and make it to Cardiff. With that in mind, it was probably best from a Scottish viewpoint that we were humbled in Glasgow against Ukraine rather in Cardiff against Wales. They would've especially enjoyed it after 1977 & 1985. I don't think Clarke should go at the moment. However, the way things are going, it perhaps needs another review at the end of September. The manner of this defeat is particularly galling because it happened so soon after the World Cup play-off capitulation. The buck stops with Clarke. He really needs a win in Yerevan and that feels like it's going to be a tough assignment for us. He's improved us to a degree but then he's had a better squad to pick from than was the case with the last few of his predecessors. His inability to make tactical changes swiftly enough during game time is really killing us. The Ukraine game was a perfect example. I was about 15 minutes late getting into Hampden but within a couple of minutes it was clear we were waiting for Ukraine to open the scoring. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read that and instantly thought of Saddam Hussein. However, he also struggled against Iran just like Ally McLeod so probably not the answer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Insert Amusing Pseudonym Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Can we please not even contemplate a 3 at the back without Tierney again either? Makes us worse defensively and light in midfield 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn’t so much bright spots, we did have chances and for me it wasn’t quite as abject a performance as that Kazakhstan game. On the radio they were talking about McGinn only having scored once in his last 25 games and Che Adams only having scored once in 12 games. Usual goal scorers off form while defence has a nightmare and the result is that today. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McGinn's head is still a mess after that Ukraine miss and he needs benched. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
