EX-IRELAND INTERNATIONAL David Meyler is The42′s football columnist for this season.
Every Friday, the former Hull City and Sunderland midfielder will give expert insight and his predictions ahead of the weekend’s action, alongside the latest William Hill prices.
In his latest column, Meyler looks at the rise of Scotland captain Andy Robertson before previewing their Euro 2020 showdown with England and giving his predictions ahead of meeting between defending champions Portugal and Germany.
England v Scotland, 8pm Friday
I watched Andy Robertson being interviewed by Eilidh Barbour on the BBC ahead of Scotland’s opening Euro 2020 group game against the Czech Republic and it got me thinking about just how far my old team-mate has come.
Released by Celtic’s youth academy as a boy over concerns about his size, Robbo wasn’t going to let that setback define him. He climbed the ranks at Queens Park and began plying his trade in the Scottish Third Division, before earning a move to Scotland’s top flight with Dundee United.
Hull City manager Steve Bruce took a shine to the young defender and, after one season, he joined us in 2014 for £2.85million.
It took Andy a few months to get settled in with the lads and learn how we worked. I’m sure it was a big change coming from Dundee United but he didn’t look back.
In the 2015/16 season — when we were promoted to the Premier League — he played 42 of the 46 league matches as well as the three play-off games.
That was the first time I thought ‘this boy has massive potential’. Now I’m not going to lie and say I thought he would reach the levels that he has in recent years. I knew Andy had more in him, but he has gone on to hit astounding heights at Liverpool — becoming a Champions League, Premier League and Club World Cup winner.
I had a pint with Andy after Liverpool’s European Cup win in 2019 and he is still the same old Robbo.
For me, he’s the best left-back in the world right now. There is likely to be mentions for veterans like Jordi Alba and Marcelo and the other one I’d pick out is Alphonso Davies of Bayern Munich.
You might disagree depending on who you support — Man United fans could talk of Luke Shaw’s current form, Chelsea supporters may point to Ben Chilwell and Arsenal really rate Kieran Tierney — but I think Andy is more of an all-rounder.
Liverpool had a disappointing year by their standards but his performances didn’t really drop. Andy was one of the more reliable players while others were going through hard times.
Robbo is the perfect example for any young boy or girl who is told at 14 or 15 that they’re not big enough, quick enough or good enough. He has proven that, with hard work and endeavour, you can reach the very top.
I remember Andy telling us stories that he used to work at Hampden Park, serving dinner and collecting plates and cutlery. On Monday, he captained his national team in the European Championship at that very ground.
23 years have passed since the Scots were last at a major tournament so there were bound to be nerves. It was just one of those days that no matter what they threw at the Czechs, they couldn’t score.
I’ve seen the argument made that Che Adams should have started up front ahead of Lyndon Dykes and that maybe he would have scored one of their chances. That is all ifs, buts and maybes now and Steve Clarke has been loyal to the lads who qualified them for the tournament.
Southampton forward Adams — a former England U20 international — only committed his allegiance to Scotland and joined up with the squad three months ago, but he will get his opportunity.
Some people have been very critical of David Marshall’s positioning for Patrik Schick’s second goal but most goalkeepers play that sweeper-keeper role nowadays and it is part and parcel of football.
When you break it down, Schick has scored with an incredible effort. The Bayer Leverkusen striker had some audacity to shoot from just inside the Scottish half, particularly when you see how far out the ball starts before curling in.
Scotland were very unfortunate as they were knocking on the door and there were some good performances.
I would like to see improvements from the forward players and a couple of the midfielders. John McGinn and Scott McTominay — two players who had good seasons at club level — have more in them than they showed.
They also have the highly-rated Billy Gilmour in their ranks. The 20-year-old Chelsea man is lacking in international experience but if you’re good enough you’re old enough.
England boss Gareth Southgate brought on Jude Bellingham against Croatia and, at 17 years and 349 days old, he is the youngest player to ever line out at a Euros.
Premier League clubs like Manchester United were sniffing around him but he left Birmingham City to join Borussia Dortmund last summer.
They are renowned for giving youngsters a chance and he has enjoyed a terrific first season — particularly in the Champions League.

We don’t see Gilmour training on a daily basis, but if Steve Clarke is looking for a midfielder to be a bit more controlled and get on the ball, I wouldn’t be surprised to see him come in.
Clarke could make a few changes and they will get a massive boost if Tierney is fit to start after missing the first match.
The Scots had good possession against the Czechs and it was fairly balanced. Against England, they won’t have as much of the ball and will need to keep hold of it when they do.
I thought England put in a very professional display in the win over Croatia. Their best period was in the opening 20 or 30 minutes as they started very well and knocked the ball about. Phil Foden also rattled his shot off the post but I thought the game then passed him by and I was surprised he wasn’t substituted earlier.
Croatia were always going to grow into the match but they didn’t create a lot and England’s centre-half pairing of Tyrone Mings and John Stones were very solid.
It was a big call to play the right-sided Kieran Trippier at left full-back, especially after the seasons that Shaw and Chilwell had at Man United and Chelsea respectively.
Southgate clearly rates Trippier very highly and he has just won La Liga with Atletico Madrid.
There are question marks over the fitness of Jordan Henderson and Harry Maguire and those two would’ve certainly been starters in the first game, but I’m fascinated to see if Southgate picked that team to play Croatia or if he feels that side is his strongest XI.
England need to find a way to play football and not get drawn into a battle because their players are far superior to the Scotland’s.
The Scots must avoid defeat and hope they can get something out of it. I still expect England to win the game as they should have too much for their neighbours at Wembley. Let’s go with 3-1.
England to beat Scotland 3-1 at 11/1 with William Hill Portugal v Germany, 5pm Saturday
Germany lost out 1-0 to pre-tournament favourites France on Tuesday, and I thought they lacked a focal point in attack. Joachim Loew must be wishing Miroslav Klose could come out of retirement and bag them a goal!
They created chances and did everything but score. Serge Gnabry occupied the striker’s role, while Timo Werner and Kevin Volland were also introduced before the end but it’s an issue that needs to be addressed.
Contrastingly, Portugal have one of the greatest of all time in Cristiano Ronaldo, who might not seem like he is having a great game and then he goes and scores twice.
Cristiano Ronaldo is still going strong at 36. Source: DPA/PA Images
Ronaldo now has 106 international goals, which is just three off the all-time record set by Ali Daei of Iran, and I wouldn’t be at all surprised if he broke that during this tournament.
At 36, people are starting to write him off but he remains so driven to be successful and has kept himself in great physical condition.
It has been said that Ronaldo didn’t have a brilliant season at Juventus but he still managed to score 36 goals in all competitions.
I’m going to say 2-1 to Portugal on Saturday.

The Daily Star recently spoke to former WWE Universal champion Seth Rollins ahead of his Summerslam rematch with Brock Lesnar. Rollins discussed his thoughts on intergender wrestling and the problems with social media. Below are some highlights.
His thoughts on intergender wrestling: “There are places for it. But this full on independent style women vs. men match where the women are chokeslamming the men? Our business is based in realism a little bit, so let’s do that as best we can. I think let’s live in a reality a little bit here, I am not saying women aren’t as good as men because that is not the case. But there is a reason when you go to the Olympics there are men’s and women’s [sports], there is a reason you have men’s and women’s soccer, men’s and women’s basketball. It is not they aren’t as talented, or they are not as good as athletes, but you just need to break it up. There are women out there who are incredible. … Whether we are going to have full on intergender matches, we may get there – but it is going to take some doing.”
Rollins on Twitter being a cesspool of negativity: “Its funny because it’s not just wrestling, it’s not just WWE, that’s kind of how it is in the world. Twitter seems to be this cesspool of negativity where its so easy to focus on what you don’t like rather than what you do like. People seem to band around negativity, I don’t know if it’s one of those misery loves company type things. Before it used to be you would hang out with three or four of your friends and talk about how you don’t like things, now you hang out with three or four hundred of your friends and talk about how you don’t like things. I don’t know, maybe you get more responses on negative tweets or whatever. It is frustrating.”
Seth Rollins on not being able to wrap his head around social media: “I am coming from an era when we didn’t have social media, when I was a teenager it was before social media was a thing. It about is trying to adapt to that culture but not really understanding why we use it so much for negativity. Even things like petitioning for a Game of Thrones re-shoot on the final season, or complaining about The Little Mermaid being black. I just can’t wrap my head around it—maybe I am too old. I don’t think it’s a productive part of society when it’s so negative the whole time.”Click Here:
WWE Superstars Lacey Evans and Dana Brooke had a bit of a heated interaction earlier today on Twitter. In response to a fan question on Dana Brooke, Evans wrote, “Because @DanaBrookeWWE wants another match hoping her career takes off. Meanwhile I want to eat my apple pie in piece in catering and be left the hell alone. I dont sweat for nothin sweetheart #LikeALady”
Dana later on responded with her own tweet, “Hun let’s learn proper spelling & grammar- it’s “peace” – learn & live ur gimmick cause we all know it’s put on .. ‘classless’ TRASH YA NAST.Y”

On Monday Night RAW, we saw what appeared to be a mistake by the referee during the match between Elias and Ricochet. After a sunset flip, Ricochet was supposed to pin Elias for a clean three count and an upset victory. It was obvious by watching it that Elias had his shoulder up, but the referee counted to three anyway.
Dave Meltzer reports that this was not intentional. Elias having his shoulder up was not a part of the plan and was not WWE’s attempt at starting a feud between the two. There were no plans for a rematch, but we may see a continuation next week so that Ricochet can get his clean win back.
What appeared to happen is that Elias lost his balance when one of this legs fell more forward during the rollup than he was prepared for and Ricochet couldn’t readjust him in time. WWE has made it a new angle to take when pin mistakes like these happen by blaming the referee when it is obvious that the pin shouldn’t have happened.
It’s worth noting that a rule in professional wrestling is that you’re supposed to take the referees seriously so that their calls are not in question in the future and doesn’t take any attention off the wrestlers. This is a rule you’re taught almost immediately when training, as I’m told by local trainers. It’s interesting that the WWE has made it a habit of blaming referees in kayfabe when wrestlers botch a pin given this rule.Click Here:
