Former England defender on BBC Radio 5 Live at Wembley

We're in a booth so we can't gauge the atmosphere, but it was mentioned on our commentary about the atmosphere a few times how good the Wales fans were.

To be honest with you, you have to agree if that's what he's feeling. The performance warranted a good response from the fans. It's disappointing he's felt that.

Is this a negative? It depends on how you interpret it as a fan. Whether you take it the wrong way, or whether you think you can do more and back the team more. It's very difficult in international football, obviously,

Maybe there needs to be more done behind the scenes to be able to create pockets of fan groups together where you can actually start the atmosphere going and get the songs going.

But if it were me and I was sitting in the stands and that comment was made, I'd be thinking about what more I could do to help the team. Fans do help you, and they do give you that energy.

At the World Cup, it's important those small pockets are all together and all singing from the same hymn sheet. Maybe it is something that they can look at and they can help the team.

Here's exactly what the England boss Thomas Tuchel said on the atmosphere at Wembley.

On ITV, he said: "The stadium was silent. Silent. We never got any energy back from the stands.

"I think the players delivered a lot to get more from the stands. It was difficult to keep everything going in the second half. We did excellent, we deserved to win.

On whether he expected more from the England fans: "Yes. What more can you give them? Twenty minutes, three goals. The way we attacked Wales and we didn't let them escape.

"If you hear for half an hour [it was] just Wales fans. It's a bit sad because I think the team deserved big support."

Later in his news conference: "I love English football and I love English football fans and the support they give, but I think the atmosphere did not match the performance on the field.

"We had excellent support in Serbia, but [here] we were 3-0 up after 20 minutes, we had ball win after ball win after ball win and I felt like why is the roof still on the stadium? That's just it, it's nothing big.

"We will do everything again to be infectious, there's no problem. I'm sure we will get everyone going - it is on us. But tonight I was a little underwhelmed."

I want to talk more about Thomas Tuchel this morning.

Quite a few of you have already messaged me your take on the England manager asking for more from the England fans. Thanks to those who have got in touch and keep your thoughts coming in!

For those out the loop, last night, after England's win at Wembley, Tuchel told reporters: "The stadium was silent. Silent. We never got any energy back from the stands."

No-one has now managed Scotland's men in more matches than Clarke, and his 71st game tells the story of why fans have been polarised about his impact during his six years in charge.

For the majority of this qualifier, the Scots looked like they were playing with the handbrake on. They failed to have a shot on target in the first half.

Vangelis Pavlidis somehow failed to divert into an open goal from just yards out. The Benfica striker then had his head in his hands again just after the interval when he nodded over.

The mood at Hampden was bordering on toxic. But Scotland said no.

When they should have been at least three down, Clarke's players gritted their teeth and displayed the resilience that has taken them to two major tournaments under this head coach, scoring three goals from nowhere.

Three games down, three to go on the road to the United States, Canada and Mexico. Write these players and this head coach off at your peril.

Scotland midfielder Ryan Christie admitted to his side not being at their best last night but praised his side’s response as they came from behind to beat Greece 3-1 at Hampden Park.

The Bournemouth midfielder, who scored Scotland’s equaliser, said the team showed maturity and resilience to turn the game around after a difficult first half.

"Massive win. We aren't naive enough to know that we weren't at our best tonight. I think we needed to remind ourselves at half-time that it's still 0-0 because we almost went in feeling like the game was gone. I think the reaction going 1-0 down was brilliant, especially when you think of the reaction we had in March when we fell away. We did the opposite tonight.

"It's been a while since I've scored for my country, so it's nice to get a goal and get us back in it because we know how important it is to get three points when we play at Hampden in this group, so two massive games and that's one ticked off and on to Sunday."

Scotland midfielder Lewis Ferguson was overjoyed after netting his first goal for Scotland in the 3-1 win over Greece at Hampden Park. He stressed the importance of backing up the result with another strong performance on Sunday.

"It means everything - the first Scotland goal - I haven't scored for a long time, so it feels nice and just delighted to get the win, it's so important. Playing here at home in front of this crowd, it's so important to pick up maximum points, and thankfully, we did that.

"This game probably means nothing if we don't go and win on Sunday, so it's so important, like we said, playing at home. We'll rest, recover, and we'll go and do that."

BBC 5 Live Breakfast

Former Rangers midfielder Alex Rae highlighted the experience and resilience of the Scotland players, noting that many of the players have been together for years and are accustomed to international pressure.

"Delighted to get three points. Large periods of that game, Greece looked like they were going to go and win it, but thankfully, we managed to get a couple of set-piece goals and a late goal by Lyndon Dykes, which sets us up nicely going into the last three games. Belarus on Sunday, hopefully, we can get that done. They look like the minnows of the group, and hopefully Greece lose on Sunday night, and that gives us at least a play-off spot.

"This is a group of players that are kind of well-versed with a lot of international caps, so they are kind of getting towards the end of a cycle, and I think the resilience comes from these players having played together for a long period of time, to dig deep and manage games."

Preseason games count, Matt. If Messi goes on the Wembley stadium tour me and Jonathan want to know.

As much as Craig Bellamy wanted to oversee a first Wales win at Wembley since 1977, his primary focus has undoubtedly been Monday's World Cup qualifier at home to Belgium.

Bellamy chose England, and Canada last month, as friendly opponents because he wanted to prepare his players for the kind of challenges they will face in high-stakes fixtures.

"That's why these games are so beneficial," he said.

Wales will have a better idea of where they stand in their World Cup qualifying group once Belgium have played North Macedonia in Ghent on Friday night.

North Macedonia are top on 11 points, one point ahead of Wales and Belgium, who are above Bellamy's men on goal difference and have a game in hand on both their rivals.

If Wales are to qualify automatically by winning the group, they need to win all three of their remaining matches and hope Belgium drop points more than once.

Wales' squad will be watching Friday's game in their team room after dinner at their training base on the outskirts of Cardiff.

When Monday night comes around, Wales will be prepared – if a little bruised by their trip to Wembley.

"It's not exactly [as] planned [the result against England] but Monday's a different game," said Bellamy.

Hard disagree, sorry Andrew.

Harry Kane is having a record-breaking season at Bayern. England's best player.

Wales boss Craig Bellamy on why he wanted to face England: "I'd like our egos to be hurt. I'd like us to be annoyed. It's why I wanted this game. We need to see where we are.

"We can play Lithuania if you want, and that's no disrespect to them, but then we'd have loads of the ball and then try to break them down.

"It's where do we want to go? Who do we want to be?

"Today, even now, just fills me with motivation but Monday [is] a different game. Learn from this, [learn that] we don't want this feeling again. You can use it.

"Once you get your arse kicked you learn the most - and I got my arse kicked."

Oh for sure, England at Wembley is a must.

As is Brazil away at the Maracana.

David Brooks with some Welsh reaction to the defeat against England: "Belgium is obviously the main [game] that we just have to get three points in. The focus from this point on is on to Belgium and it is a must win.

"I wouldn't say the confidence is damaged at all because I feel like we are all very good players and I think we can hurt any team on any given day. The first 20 minutes weren't good enough but the other minutes that we played there was a lot to be positive about and we'll try and replicate those bits on Monday and get a better result."
