    Well McBurnie has already played for Scotland so that rules him out :emoticon-0105-wink:

    I think part of England's problem is they keep getting piss easy qualifying groups and it comes as a shock when we have to play good teams.

    Agreed - there used to be an element of jeopardy in qualifying groups -now they are designed to ensure all major nations qualify

    Its not the groups design as such

    Its that the tournaments have way more teams now

    Euro 2008 for example
    16 teams qualified

    Euro 2024
    24 teams

    World cup 2018
    32 teams

    World cup 2026
    48 teams

    Now you can qualify automatically finishing second
