    Scotland were so bad. It is difficult to tell how good Germany are.

    Scotland’s Xg for last night was 0.00 <laugh>

    I bet that’s got Seriously Red & Mundell poring over their clipboards this morning.

    Germany had 19 shot on target, the Jocks had zero.

    Steve Clarke’s post match press conference was toe curling.

    Short, curt and frankly rude answers to the international football media.

    Looks out of his depth.

    Only goes to prove that Xg is a right load of old crap.
    Like many modern football 'so called' stats.

    Scotland scored - so their actual goals scored is infinity percent higher than their Xg.
    In other words the Xg could not have been more inaccurate, and useless.

    We didn't have any shots off target either, and I have to correct you, our xg was 0.01.

    That's my first reply buggered <laugh>

    OK, Scotland's actual score was 10,000 percent higher than their Xg. Not infinity, but still quite a lot.
    Xg is cobblers either way.

    Rudiger’s own goal doesn’t count towards Scotland’s Xg.

    There’s no might about it.

    France in the semis or Germany in the final. You’d be fairly confident of England’s chances even with Nigel Adkins in charge rather than Southgate.

    The team might be garbage, but the fans have made a very good impression, making friends with the locals as they always do. A pity the Irish aren't there, their fans have a similar mindset.

    Chairs have been chained to tables in bars and restaurants in the cities where England are playing.
