The pace has been the key difference, England attacked with speed and everytime we look like scoring. Scotland just do not have any players with that capability

I know one happy little 7year old who's going to get back late tonight Third visit to Wembley, lucky little munchkins aren't they kids today. B-)
Alex Neil being touted at the momentNearly landed on the row behind after the Sturridge goal. Not the best England performance but we didn't really need to be that good. We didn't even get into second gear. Scotland were terrible. Anya crapped his pants every time Rose and Lallana got the ball. Wallace, Berra and Hanley were all poor and were committing mistake after mistake. Brown shouldn't have bothered coming back. As for Griffiths, he couldn't hit a cows arse with a banjo.
Again I was very impressed with Lallana. He was superb and IMO if he had played in Ljubljana we would be sat with maximum points. Outstanding header from Sturridge. Nice ball in too.
Still not sure about Southgate either way. Won't be after Tuesday either. Anything but an embarrassing drumming though and the FA will give him the job.
Strachan won't be hanging around much longer surely. Who's next there? Heard Moyes mentioned. That'd be brilliant! More than happy with that.

What is it with all the love for Stones by managers and players ? I don't get it as he's error prone and a liability for club and country. They say he will make mistakes,but that he's learning !
As it's you CJ I'll take your word for it as you've seen him play live,I've just seen him on the telly.But should a professional player make so many errors ?He's got so much talent it's unreal. He does make the odd error but they'll get stamped out soon enough. He does enough to make his place in the squad worthwhile at the moment.
Whilst we're on the subject of Stones, Harries reminds me a lot of him. Huge potential there.
Off to the pub then the match hope we take the chances that Scotland missed ! PUSBRooney was very average again

Stones along with Alli are two of the most overrated english players around. There not bad players, both should go onto have decent careers in the premier league but neither of them are nowhere near as good as the media and pundits like to make out.What is it with all the love for Stones by managers and players ?

Hardly a C team was it, and tbh they didn't look like scoring till the last 5 minutes. I'd be more pissed off if I was Spanish, because they were shite. At least we looked dangerous pretty much every time we attacked.Thrown away a 2-0 lead against the Spanish C team today

WRT your first sentence, I was talking in context of the game, not the last 10 years. Your second sentence I tend to agree with.Yeah I'd be pissed off is was Spanish too, winning 3 of the last 5 major tournaments just isn't good enough is it!
We played okay, felt like we were at full pelt whilst they played it at a friendlys pace, they can click through the gears and when they do a team like England can't stop them.
Thanks for the input.Oh yeah great
Only 3 of the Spain players who started get anywhere near the first team in a competitive match. Quite a few of them who played tonight would struggle to make the strongest squad.Hardly a C team was it, and tbh they didn't look like scoring till the last 5 minutes.

We played pretty much our strongest available and couldn't see it out. When Spain brought on there B players like isco, morata and koke and we couldn't handle their quality, if Spain had their A players we would have been comfortably beaten.
