The former Chelsea and Ireland winger Damian Duff didn’t hold back in his criticism of this English team after their performance last night. Yes he was delighted for Scotland and his former teammate Steven Reid, but questions Gareth Southgate that he doesn’t know his best eleven.

“On the back of that – absolutely (would he rule England out). I know you can’t go off one game but against Croatia, who were poor, yeah they were efficient, they got the job done. But that was awful tonight.
Scotland were brilliant, I’m so pleased for Steve Clarke, Stephen Reid, Stevie Woods, but England were awful. If you think about their attacking talent – world class, and they are at their clubs – but when they come and pull on an England shirt, I don’t know whether it’s the pressure, the media. You can hear the punters there tonight – they’re on them. They were on them after 30 minutes against Croatia if you turned your volume up on the TV. I don’t see it, I don’t.”
