Game over

Yep, too many nearly moments, not enough quality.  Stupid decision to shoot though, self inflicted.

Ridiculous. He knew there was no one cover behind him and had a player wide of him in space. He’s not fucking Dunga. Idiot. Shame as Adams had inspired a much better looking performance from first half.

Dykes could be the worst player Ive seen this tournament

Absolutely shocking. Surely there’s better than an average striker from QPR?

O'Donnell is giving him a run for his money.

Yep, he turned his back for the first goal and blocked off Christie as well as kick the ball put several times while under no pressure.

Hope Armstrong and Che don't try and tap anyone up from that squad on our behalf. Apart from Robertson there's not one that looks like they'd improve our squad, let alone our first XI.

Special mention too to McTominay who is nowhere near as good as he thinks he is. Just blazed a sitter over the top, the only other thing he's done this game is flop over and then get annoyed when the ref doesn't give him a soft free kick. Wearing the wrong shirt for that, Scott.

Wouldn't quite describe it as a sitter

3 or 4 wouldn’t improve our cleaning staff...

England must be rubbing their hands together. Could be a 5 or 6-0 win.

Certainly not much to worry about based on that performance. Whoever plays RB for England will be the most important player, nullify Robertson and you seem to nullify most of their attack.

Southgate will probably stick Chilwell there.

I would, but I confess I didn’t actually see it. I’m working on the evidence, which is, I don’t like him, I don’t like Man Utd and I don’t like the way he brutally attacked Jankewitzs studs with his thigh.

To be fair, Walker is our best 1 on 1 defender, we'll be fine

Probably the most dire commentary I've ever heard. No descriptive skills whatsoever.

Refereeing at the Euros showing it can be done properly. Hardly noticed VAR. 
Richest league in world should look at getting a few of these in

Never understood players ‘taking one for the team’ when they’re in their own half, with two defenders covering and 70 yards to run to the goal. Doesn’t seem worth getting booked on the off chance some random Slovakian midfielder might pull off an Owen vs. Argentina.

I would have but I couldn’t understand what they were trying to say , I could pick up every 3rd word or so but they go into a Scottish mumble at a fast pace and I find it incomprehensible.

Blimey  that Isak of Sweden looks a player.  Out of our price range I would imagine. 

sure does.

21 year old scoring 17 goals in the Spanish league. I would think so.

He would be a very good fit, quick strong and scores goals. 

Currently playing for Sociedad , highly unlikely a move could ever materialise but you never know!

They seem to be financially sound and having sold Griezman for €54m way back in 2015, they know a players worth and will therefore get very good money should he leave. That counts us out.

Liked him for a couple of years, he always looked very bright in the Eiredivisie and carried it on at Sociadad

Was the young player of the year in spain this year.... no chance he comes here.... 40m min I expect

If we have to budget to sign anyone from this tournament, it’ll be that donkey up top for Scotland. 

On today’s display, he made Carrillo look like Maradonna.

Got a €70m release clause, and a €35m buy back option at Dortmund. Will be interesting to see his career develop. Seems to have huge potential

Looks a good replacement for Haaland tbh

He's already said he doesn't want to return to Dortmund, so their buy back clause is somewhat redundant.

Not sure he views his previous experience there with any affection.

Fair enough, didn’t know that, I suppose thats what happens when you show little faith in a player

100%. I don;t think there's been an error yet of note - nor any serious agonising delays.
