We are playing two teams in nations cup which we can afford to go and attack. McTominay wrong choice for that. He's a good defensive midfielder and should play against the better teams when we need to counter. Obviously Mr defensive McLeish will pick him; twat of a man. With Brown and probably Fletcher not playing we need to be giving our young prospects as much gametime as possible otherwise they'll never have the experience to step into international football. Plus he's a big lad, along with likes of Paterson can give us a help at set pieces. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you basing this opinion of McLeish as a defensive manager on? He wasn't really that defensive the first time he managed us, with the exception of the games against France and Italy. In fact, if anything he chucked the Euro 2008 campaign away by setting us out to be too attacking in Georgia, leaving out Christian Dailly in place of Shaun Maloney.

Why stop there? Why even play any defenders at all? Drop the goalkeeper? For me, playing anyone in our half would be far too defensive against the utter shite we're playing in the Nations League. Or, like most people would realise, it isn't enough just to throw more forwards on and call it attacking. I liked to think that no-one would ever think like that after our immense act of charity against Gibraltar, but then I guess I shouldn't be surprised.

The fact that he keeps withdrawing from squads suggests he won’t play there too often for us either. I’m not convinced 5ft 3.5 in is ideal for a defender. I’ll also wager Docherty has played more often in that position than Fraser. Fraser is first choice there for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DAVIDB69 Posted July 31, 2018 Share Posted July 31, 2018 We need one DM. Him next to mcginn. But he will be guaranteed a game because of who he plays for which isn’t right. I would be surprised if he was anything more than a league cup man this season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And I don't think he'll be guaranteed a game anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If mckenna were fit would he replace mulgrew or Hendry tho? Midfield of Mcginn, Armstrong Mctominay Mcgregor and Griffiths up top. Forrest and Fraser could come in for Paterson if we need more pace down that side. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already have one of the three centre backs that's very comfortable with the ball at their feet, and I think McKenna is much better defensively than Mulgrew.
