Craig McCulloch Burley Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Strachan name squad with Scotland face Georgia and Germany on September Who player in Scotland squad name? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie the A9 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Fingers crossed the fella from Richie gets punted - he's just not even remotely good enough. Dorrans and GMS in the squad would make sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LinkinFighter Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Does Dorrans even get a game? Also Strachan tends to pick the same players each time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newcastle broon Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Does Dorrans even get a game? Also Strachan tends to pick the same players each time They said Dorrans was impressive for Norwich on motd on Saturday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Julie the A9 Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 Does Dorrans even get a game? Also Strachan tends to pick the same players each time I know it's only Norwich, but he's easily the best player there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordopolis Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Dorrans started for Norwich on Saturday. However, his career has been very patchy and he's been around the edges of the squad for 6 years without doing anything or forcing his way in. Ritchie is a good player, I just think he might be in a round peg/square hole situation with our team. Interesting to see who if any of: GMS, Armstrong, McLean, Jack might make it in this time round.

PrestersKTID Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 GMS and Armstrong have certainly not done themselves any harm since joining Celtic. Both would be good additions. Is Hanley fit again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Is Snodgrass fit yet??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parscelona Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 From the last squad i would make the following changes, Bain > Samson Shinnie > Forsyth Armstrong > Bannan GMS > Forrest Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rabinho Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Is Snodgrass fit yet???Not yet, don't think he's far away though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fit and reportedly in line for a £4m move to Crystal Palace Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Scott Fox surely? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lionel hutz Posted August 12, 2015 Share Posted August 12, 2015 Would hope that Gauld and Harper get called into the squad.Gauld, Armstrong, Bannan, Snodgrass, Adam and McLean would be nice Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart87 Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 There's no chance Gauld and Harper will be in the squad unless they're the token youngster that Strachan sometimes takes along. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slacker Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 When's the squad named? I'll predict Strachan will go for the following, which I think would be 3 changes (Bain for Samson, Hanley for Reynolds, Mackay-Steven for Adam). Bain Gordon Marshall Berra Forsyth Greer Hanley Hutton Martin Mulgrew Robertson Whittaker Anya Bannan Brown Fletcher Forrest Mackay-Steven Maloney Morrison McArthur Ritchie Fletcher Griffiths Naismith Russell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 Bain was in the last squad ahead of Samson but had to pull out through injury. I think it's a given that he's ahead of him in the pecking order. It depends what McGregor's situation is though. Outside of that, we're hardly going to make wholesale changes to a squad which has been doing well. There might be one or two changes here and there but nothing major.

troopio Posted August 13, 2015 Share Posted August 13, 2015 anyone who thinks that there will be any surprise inclusions or any many changes is living on a different planet. I think someone said it already, for some strange reason Strachan seems to be falling into that old familiar Scotland manager trap of picking the same players regardless, give or take the odd shock now and again as token gesture. I am so passionate about our country but I am past caring now when the squads get named because we will never see what we want to see. We are far too predictable and have no plan b which is why we will finish 3rd, I know I am being negative but lets be honest here, I think we could all get at least 10 of the starting 11 for the Goergia game right already. Hutton will start regardless of playing for Villa or not, we will play a Right Back at Left Back, James Morrison will start even though Darren Fletcher keeps him out the West Brom side, Naismith the ghost will start even though he doesn't start at all for Everton and the worst of all, the non goalscoring striker that is Steven Fletcher will start both games even though he doesn't play for Sunderland yet Rhodes, Griffiths are banging them in for their clubs........ Its time we started picking players in form and not old favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ryan Jack? Give me strength. Even GMS, McLean and Armstrong have done nothing to force their way into a squad that has been doing so well. Expect the squad to be as similar as possible to the last one, with only injuries accounting for any change. There hasn't been enough games since the Ireland game for players to actually show any good or bad form. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The managers who stuck to the same team - as near as possible - like Smith, McLeish and Strachan got the best results. Managers who gave any old diddy a game and regularly changed the line-up like Vogts, Burley and Levein did not. How about you give us all a laugh and tell us what your starting line-up will be then?
