There is no dawn false or otherwise we have 1 player in a top team in Europe and he is no more that a squad player nowadays and Man U aren't in Europe  and might not make it next season.

Until we can get better standard of player Scotland rely on hard work grit determination and luck we just didn't turn up and were beaten  by a team worth 15x the amount the Scottish team is worth

would buy heavily at 15 times more!!!  Maybe 50 times more.
scottish team about 9.5 million English about 145 million

Break down please.  Can't believe the england team is only worth £145m.

We do all agree that the English players are overvalued, though, right?

And when was the last time you watched England and thought, "that's a £150m team"?

Just playing Diablo Avocado here.

I thought Scotland played well. Just didn't have someone to hold the ball up up front, so they couldn't stop England winning it in midfield and pressing. The second goal killed the game off.

Luke Shaw £30 million, Adam Lallana £25 million that's just two of your exSaints boys.

Heaven only knows what Sterling is worth now.

Wilshere and the Ox must be well over £30 milly each. (I'd cash in on the thug if I was Arsene, but that's another story)

Think the Arbster is closer than you Iron.

If there were a transfer market for National players, where Azerbaijan could buy Messi and so on, England would be less than £100m if you didn't include Rooney's commercial revenue and Joe Hart's shampoo.

If the performances for club matched those for country, we England fans would not be anywhere near as grumpy.

Yup, we're just cruising after the second goal and then stepped it up when they needed to to get the third.

Hmmm, not sure if many of these posts are trying to level Iron. 

England deserved to win no doubt but it was hardly emphatic.  That was England at their best imo, they don't get much better as has been seen in the last number of major tournaments they have been in. 

The entitlement that runs through many England fans is astonishing.  You have the most over hyped leage in the world, your best players aren't that great.  I generally can't recall the last world class player who was home grown who actually achieved anything, Becks perhaps? 

At least we Scots know we're shit and accept it.  But if there was a fair split of the revenues going into Scotland/Wales/NI leagues and Sky hadn't bankrolled the EPL things would be far dfferent.

If Sky hadn't bankrolled the EPL our national team would be far better

would be far less overseas players, far more more domestic players getting into starting line ups and the champions league and more of our top players would have gone to play abroad, helping them to become world class

--

the result of this game would have been different if it had been a) a competitive fixture such as a major event qualifier b) played before the Ireland game as a warm up

As it was England won comfortably as Scotland's terrific result againt Ireland took a lot out of the team
