Walker and Armstrong have been especially good this year. And have only really properly come into form since the last squad was announced. Almost certain Armstrong will be involved, may well have Walker too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blootoon87 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 When do tickets go on sale for the two games? Public sales are 23rd and 28th Feb for Canada and Slovenia respectively. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RandomGuy. Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 And have only really properly come into form since the last squad was announced. Almost certain Armstrong will be involved, may well have Walker too. There's no chance Walker gets selected when the likes of Forrest and McKay play for Rangers and Celtic.

Walker is in better form than McKay so it would be a shame if Barrie was picked ahead of him. Forrest has played well this year so Walker and Forrest playing on the wings would be a good combination IMHO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forrest is playing in a side with numerous more dangerous players, which means he's left 1v1, and gets about 20 "duel" moments per match. Statistically, he's been poor, but he's racked up assists and "performances" which mask it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skippy2015 Posted February 16, 2017 Share Posted February 16, 2017 I wouldn't have any of them in the squad. Walker probably has the biggest case to be in there on current form however Snodgrass, Ritchie, Phillips, Fraser and Burke all miles ahead of these three.

DBA Posted February 17, 2017 Share Posted February 17, 2017 Over a month away, but here's my predicted line-up: Marshall Robertson Hanley Berra R. Martin D. Fletcher McArthur Morrison Snodgrass Ritchie C. Martin Brown will come in for McArthur if he makes himself available, but I've got the feeling we've seen the last of him in a Scotland shirt. Only area I'm not sure about is right-back - Anya was poor there against England, and can't think of anyone else likely to start there apart from Martin. For me, Burke has to start but I don't think Strachan will play him. I'd also probably favour Tierney over Robertson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I certainly hope this is wrong, that trio in the forward midfield is the slowest since records began. I'd keep one of Snodgrass or Morrison though.

Surely Strachan will have learned from that, especially for a home game where we need to take the game to opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allan Jacobsen Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 I forgot we had a national team. Strachan and the SFA can piss off. No chance of convincing SAF to take control (of everything) for a couple of years? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearbuyerbell Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Thank the lord that posters are moving away from the idea that Ritchie or Snodgrass on the wing is a good idea. This was popular a year back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skippy2015 Posted February 18, 2017 Share Posted February 18, 2017 Jordan Archer had another good game for Millwall today against Leicester. Still only 23 I would have him in the squad maybe cap him against Canada as we know what Gordon McGregor and Marshall can do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
