McGinn has said Scotland were absolutely time wasting against Scotland. Has to be wise to his comments as both captain of Villa but also that he is coached by Spainish.

Think the goals against international opponents thing is an odd argument. Particularly for someone who plays for Scotland - who've had a somewhat sparse record of games in World Cup / European Championship finals for the last 25 years ... who exactly is he meant to have scored goals against? Cos pretty much by definition 3/4 of the games he's been playing have been against sides that haven't qualified for a WC/EC. Or is it that players should intentionally save up their goals against shit teams so they can score them against better ones?
I watched Emery's pre-match press conference last night and he was asked whether there was any banter between him and McGinn (over the result). The question seemed to totally go over Emery's head as he went on to say how pleased he is with McGinn, what a good player he is, how he always has a smile on his face in training etc. The journalist had to re-phrase the question, by which point Emery just seemed to brush it away. Get the feeling he doesn't really give a shit that Scotland beat Spain.

I also advise people to interpret between the lines of Emery's communication regarding his preference for mature players. That reveals a lot about some of the squads behavior.
