A few things to iron out as Clarke, Robertson and McGinn all acknowledged accurately in their interviews but we were excellent for a good 70+ mins and should have been ahead imo

I don't think it impacts things negatively for the euros as it's something to learn from against Germany in the opener
We should have been approaching the whole 90 as a dress rehearsal for the Germany game. The changes completely ruined us and instead of coming away with our heads held high we're on the back of a very bad result again.
And yes I'm prepared to criticise Clark as well as praise him when he gets it right. His negative set ups in the last Euros for example.
His failure to select Armstrong when other players have been out of form. His insistence on McGregor starting every game while leaving McTominay out.
He's not the Messiah 😎
