HoBNob Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 McDonald has been in our top three performers today thus far. It's like we're playing a 451 atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A blind man can see that shoe horning Tierney into a back 3 is hindering Robertson. Play a back 4 with Tierney at RB or drop him. There’s also 3 or 4 players in that team that aren’t good enough imo. I don't see that at all. Tierney frees up Robertson while also giving the back three the chance to shuffle over if Robertson gets caught no bother due to Tierney being a natural left back.

I disagree - he's supposed to be sitting in front of the defence but the Israelis are finding acres there every time they go forward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lex Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Israel playing quite well but we are winning.Good stuff.Refreshing to see a Scotland team with a bit of back bone about them for a change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes we are away from home but they are ranked almost 60 places below us we have not played well so far this evening. One stupid challenge in the box paints a positive picture. But what I am watching is a poor display from Scotland Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's the best formation for those two players. You can always have Tierney bring the ball out of defence. The trouble is that the right side of the back 3 (or 5) is struggling and the holding midfielder isn't holding anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are you expecting? Players learning each other and a new system and three games in you're hounding them despite them leading a kind of match we traditionally lose, taking a huge step towards Euro qualification.

Allows the shape to transition well.We've not played well here but that's because they don't seem that sharp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We scored from a penalty , which is one of 3 shots on goal we’ve had Israel on the other hand have had much more and better possession Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few folk still maintain we're substantially better than our group mates. I want to be on whatever they're taking. Anyway, this match has clearly been a massive draw in Haifa tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's because McGregor randomly being shunted onto a wing at points, and McGinn has no positional sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ravabelli Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 What a shite half of football! Boy at right back for us looks suspect and if Naismith is playing a number 9 then stay up the fucking park and stop dropping deep! McGinn, meh, the rest look like they've never met Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
