Scotland out.

VVC-Geeza · 23rd June 2021, 00:21

I was sorry to see that Scotland didn't make it past the group stages of EURO 2020.It would have been nice to have all the home nations qualify for the knockout stage to keep UK interest going.They could quite easily have beaten England,we were awful that night.

Are you suggesting England were better?
So far England have not played a team with any chance of winning Euro 2020, it is about to change, lets see how they get on but I dont think Englands group contained the Euro 2020 winners but then their manager is not capable of winning Euro 2020. Can always hope for a miracle. Was it the last world cup, they played one good team and lost yet one or two got carried away and thought England were great.

I too was disappointed to see Scotland go out.

Results in the group stage would suggest they were better,they didn't loose.And they managed to beat Croatia,the team that put them out of the last world cup. I'm under no illusions though that England have a track record of falling short when the chips are down in the knockout stages.I think we have a real chance of beating Germany on Tuesday though as they are not the force they once were.It would also go some way towards putting the record straight having gone out to Germany in the semi finals of Euro 96 at Wembley.

Very nearly weren't! Portugal only scraped through as well by virtue of two penalties. I'd have loved to have seen Cristiano (God, I'm so wonderful) Ronaldo booted out. Undeniably a great player but he really gets up my nose.

That doesn't bother me but I do question some of his selections and tactics.

It was only the public outcry that forced him to play Grealish from the start.

No brainer really
