Did you see the standard of the Saudis defending though. It was fuckin laughable. Suarez for top scorer is starting to look more appealing as I think Uruguay could murder that mob

If saudis defendings laughable how would you rate scotlands defending as they havent qualified for a major tournament in 20 years which means there not very good?

Got to be the Germans for me. Grace alps have a decent team, but they haven't lived up to anything since 98/2000.

Defenders don’t make one team mate !

It’s the lack of talent we have coming through the youth system that lets our nation down.

Slightly getting better and we will be there in USA imo

Totally agree there's a lack of talent & we know why that is. 3 foreigner rule in starting 11 & 3 under 21's on the bench

Completely disagree. There is plenty of talent being developed through youth systems in Scotland, it's such an uneducated, armchair comment to throw out that there isn't good young talent playing and developing here.

Go and watch any full time club in the country and you'll see a healthy representative of talented young players in their matchday squads.

I don't believe Scottish football is of a very sub standard. The Premiership is entertaining and competitive. It's the perfect developing ground for internationals and players who will go on to be internationals.

And the general consensus is, we're not at the World Cup (or didn't make the play-off), because the manager didn't select the best team (more partucularly, striker) at home to Lithuania.

Fine margins. We were unlucky to miss out on the play off.

Maybe the best were picked. Play offs dont mean anything if you dont qualify. How many play offs has scotland been in over the last 20 years? Fine margins i think not. Dont blame the manager as its every players responsibity to play to the best of there ability while on the pitch. The only way scotland will qualify is if they increase the teams to 48 or 64. Thats called default. Enjoy watching sub standard drivel. Bring back guys with bite, billy bremner, kenny burns, not so called hard men like scott brown.

I was giving an opinion on what I seen in a particular game. No idea what Scotland's defending has to do with Russia v Saudi Arabia but I'll entertain you anyway. I rate it a lot better than the Saudis. In all my years of watching Scotland play I've never seen 2 centre halfs go sliding by a player just before he stuck the ball in the net....aye laughable

Butler quantify that statement i watch the football and whats coming through what has any side done in any tournament i think one team won a tournament a few years back. I watch the coaches at grass roots level they have sfa badges but dearie me they dont have a clue. They follow the SFA coaching manuel which is crap.
