Callum McGregor apologises to Tartan Army for Scotland's performance against Germany

- Callum McGregor accepts that it's not enough for Scotland to just be at Euro 2024 - they need to prove they belong at tournaments on a regualr basis.
A nightmare start in Munich has dented hopes of making it out of Group A, but not obliterated them completely. Switzerland and Hungary are next up and Scotland need at least four points to stay in the hunt.
And while McGregor doesn't dismiss the achievement of qualifying, not competing now we're on the big stage isn't acceptable.
The Celtic skipper said: "It's not enough to just qualify. Everybody wants more. That's the way of the world now. When you get here, everbody wants you to progress. As professionals, we want to progress and get better but we understand there's a lot of work to be done."

Play Gilmour and Forrest. Idiotic selection last night and sitting so deep and booting the ball up the park... it was shocking. What was the point? We are not good enough defensively to play like that. It's the manner of the performance that is annoying me more than the score.
Morgan over Forrest for me
bang on mate correct
@@w4tkn fir what reason, ?
That’s my thought aswell bro get gilmour starting games, he has some engine in him, he is our best midfielder imo. Really when we played England at Wembley and we drew gilmour was amazing that game he ran that midfield
If the Scotland football team were as great as their supporters we would be one of the best in the World 🌎🌎
It’s a wee bit easier to be a supporter than to be a football team capable of beating Germany ….
Wow, only the negative people want to say negative words, 😂😂 be proud they reached a competition after 26 years😂😂 negative people sort your life’s out & be humble, you’ve lost nothing that matters to you personally. Scotland the brave? More like Scotland the moaners 👍😂
Big fish in a small pond. Scotland needs a change in the way they coach and play the game. Not intelligent and athletic enough
Spot on.
So true
McGregor and McGinn were ABYSMAL
So are you 😂😂
We billy gilmour should be starting a game, look at how he played that tournament when we played England at Wembley and we drew, billy was superb in that midfield, he is a great player 🏴🏴💪💪
McGregor rarely under this sort of pressure, one of his better interviews that, good luck Callum. Plenty to do and he knows it. 🍀🏴
2 games left to show what they can do. Let’s encourage them at least.
Ffs pigs might fly
Definitely bro we can do it I just wish they played like they did in our qualifying group games . We were scoring goals from different players so let’s hope they get that mentality back and go out and win this game. COME ON SCOTLAND 🏴 🏴🏴
🏴🏴💪💪
They were on a different level.........
......
They will be, if you show zero fight, zero passion, zero interest and stand around watching the opposition tear you a new arsehole.
I'm 60 plus.
Never seen such a piss poor performance by any team, at any time, ever.
Shameful and shocking.
Agree with that we were like a pub team on Friday, we qualified with some great wins then when it comes to tournament we go. Absolutely shit. Imo
You are playing for your country, give EVERYTHING
They don't have the quality...its that simple
@@johnmayberry7669 we don’t have a striker. And we definitely need someone to get us goals
Scotland don't have the depth to compete at this elite international level.
It was blatantly obvious that Germany were a better team on paper before the game, so therefore why wasn't there any collective pressing from the front from the forward and midfield players making life very uncomfortable for Germany. It was footballing suicide allowing world class players to have time on the ball and express themselves freely. I am glad to hear that Scotland players are repentant about the performance however once again the language is a bout doing justice and being competitive, talk to me about winning matches and winning the tournament having the mentality of Chris Hoy, I don't want be realistic I want to win at all costs in a fair and sporting way. Next two games go out at win them build a massive momentum and at the press conferences talk to me about winning the tournament. If the Greeks can win the Euro's in 2004 why can't Scotland!
Let’s hope so my friend 🏴🏴🙏🙏
Whole team were shocking against Germany
I should think so too, they’ve embarrassed the whole country.
Did anyone expect a different result,I don’t think so
Why is the press not on their back about why they walked around the pitch with no commitment.
Scottish journalists just as weak as that performance that was on show on friday
Gilmour over you all day long … You continue to go missing for Scotland !!
He's rotten like seriously.
I smell shit this guy don’t go missing and I ain’t no Celtic fan.
We would have won if Gilmore was playing 😢
@@shunkyboy better see a doc about that bud … smelling shite ain’t no laughing matter 🙄
@@shunkyboy at least someone said it McGregor has been the whipping boy after the result even tho I could name at least 4/5 players that were worse
Why wasn’t the captain put up for this press conference? Calmac is a good speaker but Robertson should have been put up for this after that embarrassment
Same way captain came out tunnel was never interested
Agree with you there
Everyone of the guys bottled it, not wanting the ball incase they made a mistake.
He sounds as if he accepted defeat before a ball was kicked.
He's admitting it wasn't good enough ya weapon, what's he going to do come out and say they played well?? wee fannys like you slating professional footballers are half the problem do you think sitting slating them will make them perform better in the next games? Get behind them
Who Andy starry eyed when coming out of tunnel said it all
The manager did. Saying 4 points was the target says he accepted defeat before a ball was kicked and planned on playing for a draw in one of the games. That’s the thing that annoyed me the most.
Come on lads bounce back and deliver knockout blows to Switzerland and Hungry to become part of a legendary Scotland squad(first to get out group at a finals)!🏴🏴🏴💪💪💪
I hope we bounce back also bro , but we need a goal scorer I think that’s what’s going to F us , we are capable of beating both teams, on our day with a striker but that’s what worries me is we’re are the goals going to come from
@@michaelburnett7809 we have shankland but he's a penalty box predator rather than playing off the shoulder I'm behind etc,something has to give to accommodate shankland and gilmour,the creativity is there with him,he will free others with his willingness to take the ball and obviously the wee man knows we're the goal is....come on Scotland🏴🏴🏴👍
reporters asking same questions over and over in the same interview, how many times can he answer the same question. Bottom line we were awful across the park and that needs to change quickly before the swiss game. WE ARE BETTER THAN WHAT WE SEEN LAST NIGHT
Same as Celtic in Europe, high hopes but no joy 😢
Sevco are honking 🍀🍀🍀
@@Abse-b1f Rangers* and yet higher than you in Europe rankings, what does that say about pervco 😂😂
In any football game the object is to score a goal (correct )
To do that you hav to attack (correct)
Hav a fekin go man its the euros oh and hav a shot at goal(correct)
🏴🏴🏴🏴😂😂🏆
The entire team were minging, no need to apologise every Scotland team has failed in the past, ok the magnitude of the scoreline was bad, but Peru and Iran in 78, Costa Rica in 1990, Estonia in the qualifiers in early 97, we lost to Germany, the host nation, they're a good side, far better than us.
I agree, but it whT it is, Clarke is and always be a negative type manager, there's no way ever he would lead the line with a front three and let them worry about us, any successful move he's made tactically or introducing new younger players has been forced upon him because of injury, he is a dinosaur, and not a very good coach, and to answer either your or a other question about why wS Andy Robertson not doing this, Andy was interviewed right after the game,
Play gilmour and forrest as if thats gonna make any difference the whole squad are fuckin garbage ffs😅😅😅
Not the result I expected but I am still proud of my team. Just move forward and chin up.
It was embarrassing and that pains me to say
What Scotland needs right now is Jürgen Klopp.
One victory in ten games, says it all really..we are diddys, at football.
We got to finals,that for us is worth celebrating 🍺🍺🍺🍺🍺
Wasnt his fault ,it was the WHOLE team, he isnt the Captain he isnt the manager. SCOTLAND fights from the grave , cmon lads.
Cringe
@@Adam-zh4hm ya numpty
Let’s face it, we’re not getting out the Group stages.
Robertson is captain why he in hiding the guy who told a reporter we train on beer and whisky ..Europe looking on at that match shall be thinking he is telling facts with way team played . McGregor should be captain.
Captain needs to change. Needs a leader of strength and heart. Need some fire 🔥 manager should get braveheart on for them. Cmoonnnnnn Scotland 🏴
Theres 1 big decision that needs to be made AR or KT at leftback stop trying to fit both them in the team. 3CB and wingbacks is not working,
4-2-3-1.
AIM FOR SIX POINTS.NOT FOUR
I think the ultimate winners played the tournament’s worst team.
1/0 5/1 its all the same (ah know goal difference) mon lads gies something to shout about.
I blame the Celtic players...utter rubbish...the Celtic players bring shame on Scotland...just like their team..nothing but SHAME...pay your VICTIMS..🇬🇧WATP🇬🇧
Scotland should be given special dispensation and allowed play 15 players per match. It's only fair.
Think the commentators should apologise for the abysmal condescending commentary and making us suffer their colonialist crap while we’re already feeling low.
Skill didn't enter it, there was no effort from any of the players. You shat it, simple as that. To thy own self be true....we couldn't even assess how good Germany really were....They toyed with you...shambolik
Been watching Scotland since the 70s and that was awful. No organisation, fight, skill or belief. Zero points from this group. Sorry to say.
We should have stopped Tony Crosse , that would have changed the game, basic coaching would have been to man mark him make him play on his left foot ffs .
Come on lads, let’s go and win the next game, show our strength, look at how our qualifying how went , let’s get that mentality back, we’re here because we won the right, so come on Scotland 🏴 we can do it, and let’s start wee billy gilmour , we can do this lads 🏴👏💪💪💪🏴🏴🏴🏴
Well done Callum wondering where the real captain is coming out the tunnel was never going to be Andy Robertson pish captain
I’ve watched Scotland in a lot of tournaments and we’ve never turned up in the first game. Maybe that’s our mentality but these guys now have something to prove to us and themselves..
usually it all clicks in the last game.. Wednesday’s game is a must win.. if for nothing more than pride.. I wonder if Steve Clarke has the tactical nous for this level of the game..
Sorry Scotland but McGregor still hung over from winning the league 😂
It’s only a drubbing …. We should expected not to win…. the performance of all the -layers was rubbish…Clarke got his starting line up wrong …..
Scotland can do it , we work better being under the pressure we always are under …/ we can still get wins for the next 2 games ! Cmon Scotland !
Iwatched Hungary v Switzerland, hate to say it, but I fear for Scotland , they both look better .
3 at the back porteous always getting red carded,Ralston right wing, che adams upfront and doesn't offer nothing,then the middle of the park none existence, we need to play with 5 at the back against Germany not 3,,, so back to 4,4,2 and get at the swiss and hungry drop che adams and porteous is out get Gilmour in and shankland.... mon the scotland,,,,, Steve clark PLAYED a blinder think about it we where never winning that OPENING MATCH....
All them shouting fir gilmour he would been bullied even more and schooled in that middle park by them
Germans were bigger stronger better simple .
And to say press from front n middle park could u imagine if we did that agajnst them they would picked us off anyway and who knows might been worse yes we didn't hav anuf space between middle n back line made it easy for them sit front them n pick us off gave them whole park play which can't do against team n players like germans .
But those calling Clarke head is terrible he got us here which others couldn't do for years and performances to get here we all raved about then have fickle supporters calling his head now cause of 1 game
Ive sat amd slated EVERYONE , from clarke to adams ! WE made them look better ! Thats the most embarassed ive ever been watching our nation ! Hes had the balls to face it and fromt the media , fair play ! That defeatist attitude though isnt good enough ! Albania can compete ! We going to keep using excuse after excuse ? There's zero grit or determination showing in that squad ! Mctominey rallies a swuad of "elite" players at united , where was the guy whos marked Neymar out a game ? The look in Robertsons eyes durin gour national anthem was fear ! Hes our one world class player , Gareth Bale dragged wales through games , robertson isnt that player i understand that , but hes won the champions league , hes played at.the very top , time and time again disapears for Scotland! No gilmour , zero fight ! Adams upfront, he doesn't score ! I had belief up until 8.16pm , now we are laughed at for scoring a goal without a shot on target ! Leveins 4-6-0 wpuldve worked last night !!!! We laughed at that though ! Clarke failed every single one of those boys with the wrong instructions ! Is it any wonder we drink so much ! We are shite at team sports ! Fed up just having a party and having fun fans ! 🏴✌️
Why is Callum out there answering these questions as he’s not the captain but credit to him ☘️☘️
Stupid media questions feel sorry for guys simple we are not up to standard and least the fabs got we holiday and get together
He seems like the only lad that is smart … can actually think and articulate himself …
blah blah blah
He's getting into practice for the next two apologies.
Ban the orange walks now 😡😡😡
Scotland don’t need to apologise…ffsake they were up against a huge Country who played unplayable footy on the night,…just enjoy the achievement of being there and if you get results , it’s a bonus. The fans were as always World Class !
How do you think they are going to take anything from the next 2 games doubt it l put a bet on Scotland will get mauled the whole tournament .....so far so good
Got no chance
4-4-2
😂😂😂
Looks like he’s going to do it more often if they keep playing as they did last night.
We should have put all our goal keepers in kept it down to 2,0
More fight callum.
He seems like he is hurting.
He sounds like Nicola sturgeon
Callum is such a dedicated footballer
Totally agree but at spl level nowhere nere international class
Tosser Scot sport inkslingers, how many of you have been headhunted by the British or European sports headline Toppers. I suspect, not sure, but almost none that would attract your incisive 😊 commentary. And attribute you a by-line.
Why was Ryan Jack in the squad? He's barely kicked a ball this year, what a waste of a space. Plus he's shite as well, grant Hanley is shite, he should not even be there.
U talk shite 😴
As an England fan wanting Scotland to win. I personally think that Steve Clark didn’t appear to have this team organised. Individually Scotland have sone good players with big hearts.
Note: The fans who can be the 12th man appeared to go missing when the Team desperately needed support. Good luck and hope you get out of your group 👍
Lets be serious ENGLAND wouldn't have had a chance first game against the host GERMANY, if yous think yous would yous are delirious not saying they the" Germans"will be the same all tournament throughout they will tire... but ENGLAND Would've definitely got beaten,by 3 or 4 goals they where class...
and if or when ENGLAND do get them "IF ENGLAND" it won't be the same as they where out to prove a point, first 30 minute's SO IF ENGLAND DO GET THEM Germany will still beat them by 2 or 3,
and also we set up with 3 defenders one that gets sent off 50% of his career, STEVE CLARKE PLAYED A BLINDER. CMON THE SCOTLAND!
@@Justforlaughs001 your heart rules your brain pal. Any lad with football knowledge knows 2 things. First Germany wouldn’t beat this current England side by 3 or 4 that’s just you hoping. Secondly you were very very poor and it could have been 10. As I said I hope you get through the group stages. Enjoy England 🏴 tonight 👍
@@Bibg867 The difference"is"yous think yous are winning it. And that is nonsense your head is running your Heart. Hope yous get pumped out.I will enjoy that more...pml
@@Bibg867 I will enjoy England letting you down, as all you England fans keep thinking yous are better than you's are, and letting your head get in the way of your heart, so go watch your game tonight and keep hoping as thats all you got as you's are rubbish and will definitely not win this tournament. And every Scotland fan hopes England get put out.
🔔end 😂
I’ve seen better pub teams
Cal mac should be captain
Captain Coward Posted Missing 😏
And Who was captain not McGregor. Wrong game Donaldo.
Still 💩💩💩💩 though & it got shown on the big stage 😂
How about talking about your own performance
