One of the highlights of the game for me was Milinkovic-Savic hoofing a wildly slashed clearance over his own box, from one side to the other, at approximately the altitude of the International Space Station. His head was gone and it wasn't a surprise when he was hooked. Did u get the crazy shouts of Jack should be nowhere the starting 11? How do you mean? Were there a lot of people saying he shouldn't? He was always more likely than not to be starting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A rock. By miles our best player. I was surprised no one came in for him. Had a wee bit of a shakey start to this season but our overall form was poor, we've changed the formation around and he's basically been playing with a new defence. Last night was the Gallagher we saw pretty much every week last season. He was superb. Edited November 13, 2020 by Ya Bezzer! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAE1929 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 Woken up with hell of a hangover, one of the only times I've been appreciative of Covid, working from home. Last night was simply brilliant, I can fully admit to having a meltdown when Serbia equalised. As ET kicked off, I felt so deflated, just wanted to be put out my misery, but it never happened. Those penalties were a fucking hard watch, never enjoyed them, even as a neutral, but felt physically sick watching those. The save brought a mixture of relief and joy, an untouchable feeling. Gallagher was phenomenal, I watched Mitrovic last week against West Ham. He was a nuisance throughout, and did a power of running. Gallagher was touch tight the full game, Mitrovic won't have many harder games. I think you have to give Gallagher extra credit as he got that early booking, didn't deter him at all. Dykes was brilliant, I said it last night but I don't feel he held the ball up that much, but what he did was win numerous headers and knocked the ball on which allowed us to push up and close off space. The amount of times we nicked possession, especially in the first half was brilliant. Every player put in hell of a shift, Marshall's save in ET won't get enough plaudits because of his penalty heroics, but it was genuinely world class. When I saw Tierney named, felt it was a case of him being shoehorned in, but he was very good, as was Robertson, and by all accounts his rallying call got the lads going for those extra 30 minutes, it could have easily gone horribly wrong. Don't think I'll understand how they managed to mentally overcome that hurdle last night. I can fully admit when they equalised I was done. They showed a resilience that has been missing from Scotland for years. Today will consist of numerous little naps, and then enjoying another bottle of malt this evening, might even watch the game back. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheScarf Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I think we'll find if guy like Dykes, Christie and Gallagher have a sold tournament, bigger clubs will come in for them. A tournament is a fantastic shop window for players. Look at how many players have moved to big clubs right after playing well for their country at one over the years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest bernardblack Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I think it's down to the personnel too, not just the management. There doesn't seem to be any shitebags in the squad these days. Boys that'll hide in games. You couldn't say that 10 years or so ago.This. There’s no huge number of squad withdrawals either and they just seem to be genuinely top bois. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get it right up me and my 20 years of well earned cynicism. David fucking Marshall. I said at the time we were getting pumped in et. Wouldn't have been surprised at 3 or 4. Probably a better team would have taken advantage but credit to the players for standing firm 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charger29 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 I'm certain we'll get out of the Euro's group. There's just so much momentum in this team just now. After having issues at CB and CF for years we seem to have fixed both in the space of a few games.Just praying for a full Hampden. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 There were some unbelievable individual performances, but I said during the game that we were witnessing the difference between a shite manager and a really good manager. Aside from the subs, everything Clarke did and had planned was absolutely perfect and was the reason for us controlling the game. I have never loved a football manager as much as him. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's worked under some unbelievable mangers and you can see it a mile off. When you look at guys like Strachan, Burley and Levein, he's on a different planet. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was saying this to my mates last night. There are a few players in the squad who have the potential to develop into even better players should the right clubs come in for them. My hope is that folk like Ryan Jack and Ryan Christie don't get struck down with Paul McStay Syndrome and stay in their comfort zone at a club they support beating Hamilton and Ross County eight times a season. Has happened far too many times over the years. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
