Inferiority complex

Is this what the problem is with our national teams?

People point to players from the British isles not being good enough, i'm not sure if i believe that, most of these players regularly put in performances of a much higher standard for their clubs in similar level competitions.

Why do Scotland and England constantly struggle to string more than 5 passes together? The ability of our players should be more than capable of carrying that out, and thats just Scotland i'm talking about.

Is it an inferiority complex against foreign teams where the players go into matches expecting not to have the ball?

Why don't profesionals playing in whats described as 'The best league in the world' ever have the confidence to control a game against supposedly sub standard players?

The game is August is going to be painful to watch.
