They can never be quiet during international break.

To be fair as a youth player at Chelsea you can understand his position

Understand it but this needs not be said, with morata possibly injured and Kante and he being apart of the squad surely he seems some light at the end of the tunnel.

Unless he was told he could go in private

Gordon Strachan bemoaned Scotland's genetic make-up after his side lost out on a World Cup playoff on goal difference following a 2-2 draw in Slovenia.

Two set-piece goals from Roman Bezjak overturned a first-half strike from Leigh Griffiths, and Robert Snodgrass could not convert a headed half-chance in the dying seconds after he had levelled with two minutes remaining.

Bezjak's movement allowed him a free header from a Josip Ilicic free kick and he had yards of space to slot home from 12 yards following a corner from the same player.

Strachan refused to discuss his own future after Scotland missed out on second place in Group F to Slovakia, who beat Malta 3-0. And he declared himself honoured to work with a group of players who he feels are battling against the odds.

The likes of Ikechi Anya, Griffiths, Andy Robertson, Kieran Tierney and Barry Bannan were up against bigger opponents and Strachan claimed that had taken its toll, at the Stozice Stadium in Ljubljana and elsewhere.

"Genetically we are behind,'' he said. "In the last campaign we were the second smallest, apart from Spain.

"We had to pick a team to combat the height and strength at set-plays. Genetically we have to work at things, maybe we get big women and men together and see what we can do.

"But it is a problem for us because we have to fight harder for every ball and jump higher than anyone else.

"Nobody can tell me their technique, apart from one player, is better than any of ours. But physically we have a problem. We seem to be able to battle it and get through just with sheer determination and skill and work-rate. And that takes a lot out of you.''

Second smallest behind Spain... Is he hearing himself? Lol

An expert has refuted Gordon Strachan's claim that the Scottish national football team is 'genetically behind' their competitors following their failure to qualify for the World Cup finals.

'While there is a suggestion that genetically determined height in men is associated with social advantage the jury is still out on that one,' said Dr Smith. 'In football - the subject under discussion - small height has not stopped some players being excellent, and may even have conferred an advantage.'

This does not seem to impact the nations in terms of football however, with the Spain starting line-up which won the 2010 World Cup final against Holland averaging 180cm - shorter than the average height of Strachan's team (181cm) from Sunday night.

Dr Smith, one of four principal investigators for genetic analysis resource Generation Scotland, said he thinks Strachan's tongue was 'firmly lodged in his cheek' when he made his comments.

However, Dr Smith said Strachan did have something right when he claimed: 'Genetically we have to work at things, maybe we get big women and men together and see what we can do.'

'Height is a product of the genes we inherit from both parents,' said Dr Smith. 'Therefore Strachan is correct in saying that a tall woman mating with a tall man is likely to produce tall children.

He was the guy he performed excellent in friendlies and qualifiers but tournaments he didn't show up and abused the fans for been frustrated?

 
In Rooney's defence what in the world were the England fans thinkin' goin' all the way to South Africa to boo durin' the group stage.

I'm not against booin' at all but at a WC? With all the other countries watchin'? While England were still in the group?

Seems a bit harsh
