Looking at the other groups, we are definitely going to have to rely on other results going our way. It is possible though but not a guarantee we will qualify for the knockout stages even if we beat Croatia & finish 3rd with 4 points. A lot of teams can still finish on 4 points in 3rd place and it may come down to GD.
Billy Gilmour will teach Modric a thing or two don’t worry.
Enough about England this is the Scotland thread.
Got good practice against the mercurial Mason Mount.
That's what I was hoping Scotland might manage before kickoff. In reality, England had no midfield, no attack, no bite and no control. Scotland had as much control of the game as England did.
Bugger
How does this work now?
He"!ll be back for the Quarters though so all is not lost heheh
Unless the Chelsea guys hung out in privat or similar.
Your first paragraph is exactly what I was about to write after reading the bbc article about mount and chilwell.
It's a disgrace really and I hope UEFA are looking at it carefully. They should be in bubbles but theres absolutely no way he's not had any close contacts before the test result.Your first paragraph is exactly what I was about to write after reading the bbc article about mount and chilwell.
it’s a sham, obviously Scotland will say that as they don’t want to lose more players, I’d say it’s a given he’s been in close contact with teammates at camp, can’t imagine they’ve all been locked up solitary confinement. Even the picture I seen was of him face to face with the manager
Who picked up on the England players? England themselves?
Yeah it seems like it although not really clear. I imagine they will ask Gilmour himself and then anyone else to come forward who is concerned. The England lads are daft but at least it's not been covered up and the right precautions can be taken.
Daft but I feel for them, Covid was probably the last thing on their mind after the match.
I'm wondering if more players will be missing based on whats been said today by PHE
What have they said today?
They have denied Scotland have discussed isolating players with them. Southgate has also been asked about it and spoke out saying he's unsure how no one else would have contacted him in the dressing room post match for example.
Wouldn't be surprised. Look at the scenes in Serbia, Conga lines and all drinking. Hardly got slated for that at the time. Were celebrating the draw with England bigtime as well. Nothing occurred there, yet some Aberdeen players were slated for going to a restaurant together. Rangers players got 5-7 game bans for attending parties.
