It was men vs boys to be honest. Technically and Physically this was the biggest gulf between the 2 teams I can ever remember.

Danny's analysis during the last few minutes of the video was among the finest I've heard on talkSPORT. Yet the media manager predictably chose to focus on Simon's throwaway quip instead. There are reasons for why talkSPORT struggles to be taken seriously and the person titling these videos is part of the problem.

I might be an outlier, but I love the fact Scotland are moving forward and starting to look like a team that could consistently make tournaments. Its good to see Wales growing and I hope in the future the whole of the UK and Ireland can put a team forward. Granted I'm from a town in the north west where we live amongst each other relatively happily, and when we play each other, we should still expect a vibrant atmosphere. I would love a tournament where we all had a chance to compete, if only for the banter.

I was amazed the other day when I heard Simon say that some Gareth Southgate critics are critical of him regardless of the good things he does. The thing that amazed me was that Simon is one of those people. Displayed by his analysis of the big teams that England have beaten. We've only beaten Spain 5-1. That never happened, it was 3-2. But also very selective memory there. We lose to Croatia at the world cup in 2018. So when we beat them in October 2018 in the nations league that doesn't count? Then we beat them at the euros? But that doesn't count as their an ageing team. Except the same team gets to a world cup semi the next year and a nations league semi. We beat Germany at the Euros, but that doesn't count because they aren't very good. They only had the 7 players starting who had won the champions league in 2020 or 2021. With another of them winning the champions league in 2022. How could they be any good? We beat Italy in March in Italy. That doesn't count tho as they aren't any good. Altho they were in the final of the Nations league. Simon just picks and chooses the facts to suit his argument. I'm sure if Italy beat us in October he'll use it as another example of Southgate failing to beat a team we aren't expected to beat.

@@lawmantheonetrueking3739 First of all I wasn't talking about whether Southgate was a good manager or not. I was talking about Simon Jordan and his selective memory and his ability to write off teams as "ageing" or "poor" when in reality they aren't, to fit his narrative that Southgate doesn't beat teams he is not expected to. So not sure if you meant to reply to me or just in general. But anyway to answer your question. No idea which top club would come in for him. I doubt any. I think its more likely that a smaller nation would try and get him as manager. Or that he get some position within the FA. I think this for a couple of reasons; English managers aren't fashionable, probably because of the style of football they play. Look at Allardyce and Tony Pullis. Good records with smaller teams and smaller budgets, never got a top 6 job. Then look at Andre Villas Boas does well with Porto comes to Chelsea and is shocking, gets fired and gets picked up by Tottenham. After he gets fired from Tottenham he still gets a job in the russian league with one of the top teams in the league. Secondly, I think managing a club team and an international team is a totally different job. At club level you get your players for 10 months of the year. International managers get there players for 4/5 weeks a year. Slightly more in tournament years. If you have a weakness at club level you ask your director to buy you a new player to fix that weakness. You then have weeks on end to work on tactics etc. There are plenty of recent examples of good club managers who have failed at international level. Luis Enrique and Hansi Flick. Both have won the champions league and leagues tittles in their club roles, both have been fired. Then look at the Argentinian world cup winning coach. He's never had a club role as a manager and he's won the world cup? I mean I'm not sure about this labelling managers as only capable of managing at a certain level. You have to have the players that meet that level. When a team is promoted they don't just say this team will do, they just won us the championship. They buy new players to try and take their team to premier league level. You allude to that in your comment when you say "If England win the Euros it will be despite Southgate".

Knockout football introduces an element of luck regarding the opposition you meet - we have had unbelievable luck in the last few tournaments to avoid teams better or similar quality to us until the late stages. We wouldn't be talking about winning anything if we had been knocked out in the last 16 by an Argentina or Spain. We are a top 10 side but not a favourite!

I believe that the Scottish leagues should be two bigger leagues, rather than three smaller leagues, to help make it more competitive, more attractive to investors, 'cos at the moment, only Celtic and Rangers are capable of winning, because the majority of investments are towards those two clubs, because of their dominance. Just like in Spain, Barcelona and Real Madrid are the only really successful teams, and the rest are counting on a large slice of luck to win anything.

I’m Scottish but not having this. Croatia, similar population to us, have been overachieving in tournaments recently so this argument’s boring me. Our domestic game needs to improve in order for the national team to continue to grow IMO.

@@AdamKennedy They are the exception really mate. Ok Norway are good too. It can’t be completely dismissed that if we had 60 million it might be a different story. Saying that, I do agree with you. It costs nothing to play good football. I’ve learned over my life that we as Scots don’t have the right mentality. Football is something we endure. We don’t try to entertain. There is no joy in our style of play. We’ve done fk all in 150 years of playing the game. We’ve learned nothing.

That's how how France Brazil Belgium Portugal feel when they okay England.

Need to build the team around Bellingham imo. Foden has to play aswell for me.

“It’s a failure if England don’t win it ……..” Nothing like stating the blindingly obvious!

Don't forget Trent in this midfield for England lol

As an englishman i expect england to beat scotland every time as does every other Englishman and that is not arrogance.

With the players we currently have we should be going for the jugular in every game. We don’t have the quality at the back to sit back and hope we knick a 1-0.

Beating Scotland is as relevant as Optimus Prime stepping on a worm.

That's wiped the smirk off Useless's mug!

Hahaha 😆 at least the crowd was great 😂

Steve Clarke we tried to force the game. No shots on target?

Pretty much expected for me with our players. I even expected Bellingham playing well although he is a true world class player now. Biggest surprise was Dunk. He was excellent and his passing through the midfield is what we were missing with our passing from the back. As well it’s solid defence and last second ditch tackles like Terry was. Dunk working with Colwill would make a massive difference to our defence from cautious and negative to positive passing to our forwards.

Harwood-Bellis is just as comfortable on the ball and he was chosen as captain over Colwill at the Euros. England are stacked with CB talent and keep playing Maguire.

@@TP-pq9xx Yes really good options. My reasons are that Colwill has spent a whole season as PL player experience with Dunk. the knowledge and experience working together would work well for England. Also Is expect players at that level should be comfortable on the ball however passing through the lines from the back is specific and probably only Brighton and Man C do this currently as efficiently. Pep himself mentioned that Brighton were the best team in Europe he has seen passing from the back, quite a compliment. I’m sure many of the various U21 and below are really exciting options as well but that particular connections was my point.

@@TP-pq9xx great player and England don’t need to be a 4 and Dunk and Colwill with Brighton’s formation as a 3 before and with Stones for England as sweeper that would be quite exciting. Also Pep several times has used Stones as Pivot DM or sweeper with great success and considering GS worries about Henderson or Phillips with Rice Stones would be far better than both. More exciting 3421 formation.

Under Southgate it doesn’t matter who is in the team. In big games it is all about the ability to keep the ball under pressure in an organised system.

Not an English man but this side should definitely be winning the up coming euros

Hmmmm. France might disagree.

Even Scotland's manager applauded Maguire's finish.

England didn't play like they wanted to win against Italy in Euros 2021 final they just sat back in the second half. So with talent England have now its a matter of if they want to win it enough in their heads!

Henderson...he is surely finished now. Bellingham, Rice, Maddison, Gallagher, even Phillips and not forgetting Ward-Prowse...how the hell is Square-Passing Henderson anywhere near the squad?

chummy act for sure

Simon is doing everything to run it in 🤣🤣🤣

Honestly I am just glad we won to not hear Scotland go on about it. Id rather beat teams like France, Argentina, Spain, Germany for example but its nice to keep them quiet.

Bellingham was playing against France and he had his clock cleaned by his now Real Madrid teammates. He is good enough to play with them but he can't beat them all on his own. Classic English hyperbole.

Always the same argument about the ‘against the big teams’. Yes we lost to France (although if Harry scores the pen who knows). We lost to Italy (on pens) and Croatia AET. Lest we forget that we beat Germany in the Euros. And Denmark in the semis and Croatia in the group. There’s no reason why we can’t do it - just hasn’t happened yet sadly. The only team who matches England on paper is France - think we have a decent chance next summer. But it’s so hard to win these things because there are maybe 6 or 7 high level nations. Might as well just roll a dice.

kane, saka, rashford/grealish, foden, bellingham, rice.....that front 6 is capable of winning a tournament

Apples and Oranges . I watched Spain V Cyprus . It was the same .

stop picking maguire and pick Tomori or dunk or someone who is better and pick better players in the squad. Also change things up play another striker give them a chance if kane isnt working

This result could help scotland and hinder england in the long term as england exposed scotlands wekness for the euros yet england havnt been challenged to prepare for the euros..except mcguire😳

Must be hard for England to find viable challenging opponents before a tournament. Maybe it’s their downfall.

We have the players 100 % but we have a second rate manager unfortunately so will come short again.

We lacked the Media 1966 Spirit ? So from this let's organize the parade and bus for the next tournament. Oxford street ?

Alan Shearer said last week Scottish football is a very poor standard . and you can't argue with him . the gulf now is huge between the two nations . and it will never be bridged now .

It's easy to play & win when you have at least 2 players worth more than the opponents full squad & Stadium combined. Scotland is capable of the odd upset but we'll never be as good as we were. Never mind in the centenary game, we were beaten 5-0 so last night was improvement!

Not really following your logic as since losing to Ukraine in a WC play off we beat them 3-0 at home and drew 0-0 away to top our Nations League group. There is hardly a wafers edge of a difference between us and Ukraine . Personally I think we're slightly better than them now. You're reading way too much into this friendly game last night.

What a great pundit Danny is

Dannys monologue at 10 minutes and how ardently Simon listened tells you all you need to know ; Simon simply doesnt pay attention for that long to any ex footballer.

Its easy for Simon Jordan to act like the result was a foregone conclusion 'after' getting the desired result, but if it was such an easy swat aside, then why didn't England beat Ukraine? Scotland got the same result as England, the last time they played in Ukraine and Scotland are at a similar level in the rankings. In Scotland's last home game against Ukraine they won 3-0, so if beating Scotland is like pouring salt on a slug, then beating Ukraine should be likewise. Of course England should be beating Scotland, they have 10 times the population and vastly more than 10 times the finances. When a team ranked 30th meet a team ranked 4th, its obvious that the team ranked 4th is expected to win. The fact that England are only ahead by 49 wins to 41 overall, shows how high Scotland were punching above their weight in the past. England were highly motivated last night, they put out a full strength team and they were excellent. For a team ranked 30th to beat a team ranked 4th, the former have to be at their best, and the latter need to be playing slightly below par. That wasn't the case last night, Scotland were far off their best and England were excellent, and the scoreline could have been higher. Bellingham looks like an amazing player already and there is so much talent in that England team.

Scotland definitely on the rise players did not compete as much as they would in a competitive match... lots to like about scots good young players coming through... England have excellent players in Bellingham and Foden but i would not get too carried away ... we will see. I'm happy with my team... all part of their development so lets see who is the better in the next 12 months... Good time for the Scots so we are not down at all..

The title of this clip is hilarious ffs 😂

Before the next Tournament, "Please" "Please" "Please" Sack Southgate. I'm too old to continue to watch England Fail because the manager believes we can defend our way to winning a major Trophy. Keep him and we lose "Again" and then ALL the people at the top of the FA should GO
