accies1874 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 McBurnie out, meaning we've lost our two backup strikers. Who'll replace him? Cummings has started the season well, albeit in League One, as has Steven Naismith in a deeper role. I'd call up Dobbie or Shankland for patter, but it'll most likely be one of the above.

forameus Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 It's Doolan's time. He deserves it as an apology for Saturday's japes. But seriously, we've got f**k all really. May as well draw it from a tombola full of fans' names at the start of the game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacky1990 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Given the lack of other options, I'd call up Oliver Burke. Massively talented and doing well for the u21s. Gives us an option with a bit of pace and power up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
an86 Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Think it’ll be Naismith after his weekend hat-trick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Forest of Dean Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Naismith would make sense but our striking options are poor. Centre-half actually looks better now which no one would have said 2 years ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Kebab Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Naismith just been called up!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordopolis Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Naismith not the worst option but I'd have preferred a player with a longer term future - Burke or Watt even Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F_T_Y Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 Naismith, f**k sake. What does that say about our striking options. Pretty grim. Snodgrass not had a decent game for Scotland in a while either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he keeps progressing under Tommy Wright he shouldn't be far away, though. Here's a laugh, Steven Maclean deserves a call up. He's been the best Scottish striker in the league for the past four years, and seems to be a huge player for Hearts already. His game intelligence is off the scale.

craigkillie Posted September 3, 2018 Share Posted September 3, 2018 We should just give up on the next few tournaments and build for Euro 2040 by fielding a team entirely consisting of newborn babies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snodgrass not had a decent game for Scotland in a while either. Naismith has come in as a back up. He's experienced, playing well but still only 31 so not exactly over the hill. Who else is playing well that should've came in ahead of him? If he'd been in the original squad ahead of someone like McBurnie it'd have been disappointing but he's a solid option. He also has next to no chance of starting. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
