The former Aberdeen man said: "We don't come up against top opposition like England very often. Perhaps we did get a little bit carried away with that home game against Spain. It's a wake up call.
Craig Levein then got in on the act. The former Scotland boss backed the Tartan Army to pull himself from the canvas after the defeat, though he insisted that performances needed to be better when playing other major teams. Pat Nevin chimed in for the final act - the former winger going against the consensus that Scotland's improvement was needed, instead stating that it was simply too good from England. He added: "Scotland were underdogs and we knew that. England started well and were sharp.
