Aye, he might as well not have been there against Croatia. I'd try him up front with Jordan Rhodes, what's the worst that can happen?

he played alongside Doyle for most of Saturday, definitely benefited from being able to drop deeper

Who do you have in Englandshire? We've got Derek Rae and Alan Brazil on STV.

Former England defender Danny Mills on BBC Radio 5 liveEngland 0-1 Scotland"Scotland now have something to protect, to give them the belief to really throw themselves into challenges."If you think back to Chelsea v Barcelona, it is very hard to score against well-organised teams who sit deep."Scotland are no mugs, it will be difficult for England to break them down."

I might use my mod powers to delete all negative comments about Miller upthread :-)

he made Cahill look a right dick there
― Ismael Klata, Wednesday, 14 August 2013 20:07 (eleven years ago) link
Also lolz @ Alan Brazil's use of the verb "bing" to describe Miller's shot.
(PS I have Snodgrass to score at any time. Any chance we could get a third?)

You can see the shite running out of Whittaker every time anyone goes near him.

Yeah if we'd scored then that would've been on him, couldn't clear even when he wasn't under pressure

Trying to work out who was marking Lambert. There doesn't seem to be anyone even looking at him.

Everyone moaning about miller pre-match when despite his limitations he remains the best scottish striker smh. Anti-mls bias, he's been bossing it for the whitecaps of late.

One good goal doesn't negate years of getting picked for doing nothing but chase hopeless causes imo
― Rummmpatitum, Rummmpatitum Traboo, Traboo, Traboo (onimo), Wednesday, 14 August 2013 20:37 (eleven years ago) link
I am slightly terrified that he's scored his way into staying in the team.

Oh look the England thread got bumped. Yous only post when you're winning :)

Does 'good pro' necessarily also mean 'a bit crap'? Because Kenny Miller's a good pro, you can't deny.

winning was good while it lasted but tbh England's subs > Scotland's first XI

Townsend's just given MOTM to Welbeck. Who's it gone to on Scottish TV?

Bounce or deflection right beforehand but he should stick the next one away

Exceptionally enjoyable, as England games go. And not* because we won.

Didn't hear them pick a MOTM but I'd stopped listening to Alan Brazil jizzing all over Englandshire's finest a while back.
― ailsa, Wednesday, 14 August 2013 20:52 (eleven years ago) link
No motm named on STV. Welbeck probably right, or maybe Walcott. Miller best player for Scotland.
