Miss Tea Spoon Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Belgium looked really poor on Friday. This must be Scotland's best chance at a win against them since... well, ages. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, the quite frankly tedious negativity going into this game is really starting to frustrate me, We have the ability to hurt teams make no mistake about it! I have a feeling we may have another special night at Hampden tonight! Scotland 0-5 Belgium 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be good if it could be an early goal rather than a late, late consolation goal, but beggars can’t be choosers.

Marshmallo Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 We should be getting our strongest XI as we see it for the Nation's League on the park for this one, and every other game between now and then. I'd hope he has a rough idea of what that is so four changes seems like overkill. Based on the players who are available Marshall O'Donnell Mulgrew Cooper Robertson McGinn McTominay McGregor Fraser Christie Forrest Christie has to play somewhere so put him in midfield instead of McTominay if people are militant about starting one of our 6 foot lumps of wood up front. I don't need to see shite like Bates, Jack, McLean, Russell. -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stellaboz Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 O'Donnell has to start showing improvement, because there's f**k all else at right back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Tierney's fit stick him in there and continue to play him every game where him and Roberston are available. Roberston's comparative advantage is going forward, Tierney's comparative advantage is defensively. We need Roberston on his left foot. If Tierney plays 15-20 games at RB over a 2-3 year period he will be continue to improve there. O'Donnell will never be at the level required. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is near enough an impossibility for us to qualify from this group. That is likely our strongest midfield for the Nations' League and the next campaign. Give them game time together. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 5 hours ago, RobbieD said: Snodgrass, McLean, Christie and Phillips will start. I have no problem with any of that. Forrest was rank rotten on Friday. McGregor was anonymous. Like those two along with McBurnie and possibly McGinn get dropped. We've surely seen enough of Phillips to know that he's nowhere near the required standard. His cameo on Friday night was frankly embarrassing, and that came off the back of an equally woeful sub appearance against Israel when he nearly helped us chuck the game. No matter how badly Forrest played the other night, he's better than that. If he's through the middle instead of McBurnie then it's all much of a muchness, but I'd rather the younger guy got another run rather than Phillips stinking the place out again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Phillips has looked oddly out of place for us most times he's played. Always seems almost reluctant to use his pace or try anything - the antithesis of Christie. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craigkillie Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Phillips tries his best, he's just really poor technically but plays in a league where he can get away with that because of his physical attributes. That isn't the case when you're playing against some of the best international sides. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
