Saint Martini Posted 6 September, 2008 Share Posted 6 September, 2008 1423: Cracking atmosphere in Skopje and the hosts have settled much the better of the two teams. In stifling conditions, Macedonia are being given time on the ball in midfield and Scotland need to get themselves into the game here. 1417: "Scotland look terribly nervous."

OttawaSaint Posted 6 September, 2008 Share Posted 6 September, 2008 Yes, now the realisation that I never really got rid of Burley is becoming apparent, as it probably is for all Scottish Saints. 10 minutes into our world cup campaign and we are likely out already. Hopefully England will fail miserably too so I don't have to hear too much about Scotland's shortcomings... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he should come on this forum and we'll explain to him what is going to happen with the Scotland team. Qualification is going to be a piece of cake for Holland this way.

stevegrant Posted 6 September, 2008 Share Posted 6 September, 2008 To be fair, Macedonia really are not the bunch of no-hoper part-timers the press and fans like to make out. In two attempts on HOME soil, England have failed to beat them. I know that doesn't say an awful lot right now, but England are ranked 15th in the world (somehow), so while people thought the result the first time Macedonia played here (at SMS) was a fluke, they proved otherwise when they got a draw at Old Trafford as well. Better teams than Scotland will go to Skopje and fail to win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Saint Martini Posted 6 September, 2008 Share Posted 6 September, 2008 I wonder what Burleys' excuse will be? Did he lose his best 3 players? That and the "fact" that the freekick resulting in the goal was not a freekick at all and that they should have had two penalties. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bungle Posted 6 September, 2008 Share Posted 6 September, 2008 Scotland were much the better team in the 2nd half, but suffered due to a poor first half performance. That being said, the freekick Macedonia scored from should never have been given, and Scotland should have had a penalty in the 2nd half. Looking forward to Slovakia v Northern Ireland now.

stevegrant Posted 7 September, 2008 Share Posted 7 September, 2008 Am I the only one that, remembering how we played last time we played Andorra, actually thought we played alright last night? Last time we looked as if we didn't know what to do when we got the ball, but this time we passed the ball fine, Walcott did pretty well out wide in the first half particularly.

Thedelldays Posted 7 September, 2008 Share Posted 7 September, 2008 lampard and rooney needed to play well last night....neither did and should not be in the team... I would play J.cole in Rooneys role.. for croatia... james brown a.cole rio terry bentley barry beckham downing j.cole heskey rooney, lampard need a break from the team downing is poor but need him on the left to keep a 442 shape and defoe should be dropped immediately as soon (if) owen proves his fitness, it has to be an owen.heskey combo up front..

Saint Martini Posted 7 September, 2008 Share Posted 7 September, 2008 Beckham central? He's absolutely useless there. And if you dont want to play Downing you could play Bentley leftwing and Walcott right. This would also open up the leftwing for A.Cole. As for the central midfield partner for Barry, its rather strange that England don't have any viable options there really. This position is in theory their strongpoint.

Good idea to drop Pompey players Johnson and Defoe but why not James as well. We have already lost Kranjcar to injury on international duty we don't want to lose any more. I'm sure you'd hate it if we were weakend because of our players turning out for England. At least Crouch, Campbell and Nugent were safely at home. Robinson and Carson are the way forward.

But Beckham is just more effective on the wing, he might do ok for a few minutes against a team like Andorra but he'll be overrun against teams like Croatia.
