Lol. Spain made eight changes, and they are blaming Scotland’s style of play and the length of the grass.

He did but if we are being honest Joselu should be nowhere near the squad! Borja Iglesias came on ahead of Morata last night too.

Didnt he bring in Joselu for his 1st cap the other night and he came on and scored 2 goals so i assume that is why he started him. Strange Morata didn't come on and Gavi only came on late too.

Morata was made captain then spent all night on the bench against Scotland, wasn't injury related either! A bizarre line up from the manager, I was expecting him to bring a few of the 21 players through since he was previously the under 21 manager but instead he played 4/5 journey men against Scotland.

It wasn't anywhere near their best XI tbf, but they are in decline in some key areas. Simón, Laporte, Balde, Pedri, Gavi, Olmo and Morata would all be considered possible starters. Probably Nacho too. CB and ST are two areas lacking the quality of previous generations. Hierro, Puyol, Piqué, Ramos, Raúl, Torres and Villa. They still have some quality midfielders in Rodri, Ceballos and Fabián Ruiz.

Very poor. The level of quality is way off previous teams. Still decent in possession but no real threat. They will still be decent at home which may bring them over the line in this group.

As i said in a subsequent post i was referring to McTominey scoring 4 goals in a row. It was said in jest not to be taken literally. Thought it would be obvious enough.

5 point lead between themselves and third place. Spain and Norway have to play eachother again as well so more dropped points there. I don't seem them bottling qualification from here

Have you not read the Ireland fan memo? Scotland and Wales are always sh*te. And no credit must be given to them whatsoever.

Sets them up nicely for their inevitable defeat away to Georgia.

A fully fit Haaland and i could still see the Scots losing twice to Norway and away in Spain. They may not but its entirely possible. Could get pipped eventually in this group.

What do Spain care, they'll cruise to qualification in this group anyway.

Could understand if they were bringing young players into the fold but they’re not! Borja Iglesias, Joselu, Iago Aspas, Gaya and David Garcia should be nowhere near this Spain squad.
