ENGLAND 1 URUGUAY 2
Well im not going over old ground but once again we just cant bring off Gerrard who not only cost Liverpool the league but has now cost us any chance of making the knock out stages.
I thought Henderson played well in midfield and at least he was getting forward to support....but no they had to take him off again.
Stirling never got going tonight a bit like what happened in the second half against the Italians where when he was out wide right Johnson kept getting in the way
Then we look at the bench and on come....Lalana and Lambert....14 months ago they wouldnt have got into the Scotland team let alone one thats playing at the world cup...
NO PLAN B .............
What every good international team have is a STRIKER who can score goals.....Tonight it was Suarez on Saturday it was Ballotelli....
We have NO ONE.......Sturridge.....Welback and Rooney are NOT strikers.
The only time we attacked the box was when we scored and with no one in the middle Baines cant cross from the by line ..he had to keep cutting in and thats easy to defend.
Should have taken Defoe or Crouch for a plan B.
Until we find a out and out goalscorer it doesnt matter how good our kids are....
We got back into it and then went to sleep thinking 1-1 would be a good result when really we should have pushed on for the winner.
Anyway if results go our way we might still make it through but winning Saturdays lottery is about the same odds.
Tonights bets
ALL LOST
New balance.....
197
Tomorrow we look to get back into a plus position
