ArabFC Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Obviously its not a 541, but the 'settled' formation isn't really a 352 either. Two holding midfielders, John McGinn with more freedom and one other (Fraser previously) trying to link play between both wing backs and Dykes. So my guess... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Shocking absolutely nobody, Hanley is out as well. Mental. He must've been in three or four squads since his last appearance and hasn't made the first matchday in any of them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There’ll probably be guys approaching double figures in caps who’ve never been in a squad with him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From what I can see O'Donnell is on 14 caps and hasn't been in a squad with Hanley 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Not that anyone really cares about Hanley but this reads like he just didn’t really fancy it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thruthenight Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Likely Christie over Griffiths, but other than that I expect that this will be the team: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craigkillie Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Replace O’Donnell (as he isn’t good enough) with Tierney and Kenny McLean for McGregor, as we need some physicality and height in there. Tierney should be in the team at centre-back, but he simply cannot play as a right wing-back in a system that basically wants the wing-backs to play as out and out wingers. It has to be O'Donnell or Palmer there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has to be O'Donnell or Palmer there. It would be an unfamiliar position for him for sure. But he'd perform it way better than O'Donnell or palmer ever could, even on their best day. I'd play him there to give us a solution to our weakest area. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacky1990 Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 (edited) Gallacher > Cooper due to extra physicality to match Mitrovic I'd have Armstrong > McGregor as Armstrong is an absolutely fantastic player in great form who we seem to take for granted and McGregor hasnt been great for us and more recently pish with Celtic, but will likely be McGregor that starts. Would also have Armstrong over McGinn FWIW. Edited November 9, 2020 by Jacky1990 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Moonster Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I feel Andy Considine done really well last time but Scottish people are absolutely fucking awful for this "that worked in the last game, dae it again" attitude. Considine is fine filling in here and there when we're absolutely stuck but he's nowhere near good enough or consistent enough to be a permanent Scotland defender, nor is this the time for pishy "but the boy done good" sentiment. I trust Steve Clarke won't be so naive and I fully expect Tierney, McTominay and one from Gallagher/McKenna starting at centre half. Armstrong has been in better form than any of the Celtic players and I feel he deserves to start as the player playing off Dykes. I have a suspicion that Christie will start though. Just fucking win, Scotland. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 I wouldn't start Considine, as much as I love the guy. He is having another very good season for us and did well against Slovakia and Czech Republic, but we have better options there to start on the left of the three - Tierney, most notably. I think McKenna is better than Gallagher and I would ordinarily prefer him to play, and he is playing well at Forest by all accounts, but Gallagher was excellent in his last couple of games so I wouldn't be too bothered about him keeping his place. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would also have Armstrong over McGinn FWIW. Yes, thats my team too. I feel Armstrong has to play - he is on great form and McGregor, although a player I like is not on such great form. Maybe Cooper would have made it into the centre of defence but he simply hasnt played enough for us and Gallagher has been pretty good in his absence. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ropy Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 Tierney has sufficient Motherwell credentials to gain entry into the Scotland defence. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genuine Hibs Fan Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 O'Donnell - Palmer, Griffiths - Christie and McLean - Jack are 50/50s for me but otherwise I think it just about picks itself 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
