Think we made them look really good by being very poor
Lots of standing about watching, lots of refusing to go in to 50-50s, really terrible tactics and refusing the make changes that would have made a big difference.
Our manager and players made it look really one-sided. They played well but not anything I'd be worried about if I was Wales - follow your man and tackle and you are already doing better than Scotland tonight.
No doubt they were good and by far the better team - some great movement but Wales are a decent team, far removed from that Scotland performance tonight. If they turn up they'll deal with what Ukrain throw at them IMO.

He doesn't barely got a sniff under Bielsa and don't think he's seen a pitch since Bob Bradley came in. He's a middling championship defender if you're generous to him.
On the upside I didn't watch a minute of it or see the result until about half 11. Thought Top Gun was great
The dinosaur Clarke has done well in getting us back to being competitive again and all but we need someone to take us forward from here.
The thing that sticks in my throat a wee bit is the game should have been played in March. Don't think time has done us any favours at all and the whole fanfare around being the good guys for Ukraine can't help the psychy either. Just a bad set of circumstances all round.
Conclusion: Ukraine should have been papped out for not fulfilling the fixture back in March.

You'll get stick from the usual suspects on this but it's bang on. Playing this now instead of March cost us our best player and meant our captain won't have given the game a second's thought until 24 hours before kick off
Aye we were a bit unlucky that we had to play the game a couple of months late but they were also a bit unlucky that their country got invaded by a murderous regime so swings and roundabouts.

Won't happen though.
We've got another three or four games this month so he definitely won't. Shite
