Antiochas III Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 And? So was 90% of the squad at one time or another. The SEETHE these threads bring every time though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Savage Henry Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 His form for his club, maybe? Shocking thought I know but heh, you never know. He's been Bournemouth's best player, it's fair to say. And Strachan clearly really likes him, rightly or wrongly. I'd be quite surprised if he doesn't start against either Germany or Poland, and I'd be flat out amazed if he doesn't start against Gibraltar.

Big Easy Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Personally no great fan of Forrest or Chris Martin, but the other options are much of a muchness. Same could be said of Forsyth and Ritchie. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troopio Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I am willing to bet a lot of money we will finish as the unlucky 3rd place team when you see squad selections like that. Are Derby paying the SFA to call up their players as that must be the only reason? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adolfo Rios Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I'm going to go against the majority. I like the look of this squad. Anyway sorry to distract, back to the negativity on the squad that is taking us close to a tournament for a change... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enigma Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 If Martin played for Aberdeen or Hearts he'd be getting 25/30 goals a season and folk would be screaming for him to be in the squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There will be no unlucky 3rd place team, best 3rd placed team gets through automatically and the other 8 will be in playoffs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neilly Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Absolutely dreadful. Edit: I'd have Armstrong in there too, but I wouldn't have Rhodes or McCormack within 100 miles of the squad. And to echo the point being made above, Matty Phillips has been outstanding too, but he's going to get overlooked for the incompetent James Forrest yet again. Strachan's done a great job, but he has his favourites. And he doesn't always call up the best available players because of it. Which is his prerogative, I suppose, but it's a case of ego ahead of what's best for the team. I thought it was fairly obvious it was a piss take. I knew Armstrong would be called up though. Quality player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DigOutYourSoul Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 If Martin played for Aberdeen or Hearts he'd be getting 25/30 goals a season and folk would be screaming for him to be in the squad. Exactly. Nothing like a Scotland squad announcement to bring out the morons God, you beat me too it. Some amount of ridiculous comments in this thread already. I really fail to see which Scottish strikers people would be selecting ahead of Griffiths and Fletcher? Pretty happy with that squad, nobody really crying out as an obvious exclusion.

ArabianKnight Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Only issue I have with the squad is Martin, we could have had Phillips over Forrest as well. Martin has scored 1 goal so far this season. Absolutely ridiculous he's in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SilverWolfe Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 That's a good squad. Only changes I would make is anyone for Forrest and maybe Shinnie for Forsyth. We know what the starting line up will be so hopefully good enough for 3 points in Georgia and anything against Germany would be a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carlukediamond Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 I think the squad is ok !! Either Armstrong or GMS and he's went with Armstrong !! Would have adam in squad !! Need to find a mobile striker ! Not sure about Martin !! But it's all we have !! Ritchie I like !!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul-r-cfc Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 Yeah, could justify Martin last season when he was banging them in but now, on poor form and having had an utter nightmare whenever given a chance in a Scotland jersey, I cannot understand why he is there. He won't play anyway so not worth getting too worked up over but odd nonetheless Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
