Rooney/Sturridge up front against Scotland?I don’t think so,Gareth!

Rooney and Kane was the obvious way to go.

The bold way to go.

Yes, I know Harry Kane has been out for 7 weeks.

And I certainly don’t think Rooney or Kane should play 90 minutes.

The trick is this: score first, win the first half, control the game.

The tighter it is the more important Scottish passion will be.

So Gareth Southgate’s job is to put daylight between Engerland and Strachan’s Scots as soon as possible.

ANY RESULT IS POSSIBLE TONIGHT.
