AFCDannyFTH Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Would it not make sense to keep the same back 3 and put Tierney in at Left Back. You could then play Robertson in front of him in midfield. Tierney is the better defender of the two, and Robertson is the better attacker. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because Kieran Tierney, who is a left-back, plays for Arsenal? I wouldn’t, I’d start the same team against Slovakia, but Jack in for fleck 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Illgresi Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I'd hae Considine over fucking Nesta, nevermind Keiren Tierney (left back). 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DAFC. Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 I think he’s saying that he wouldn’t drop a Considine.I know. I agreed with him with my opening sentence. Thought that was pretty evident tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just now, Ludo*1 said: Because it's the Scottish way? I don't know. I post on here regularly, and I'm usually one of the more upbeat positive posters. And hate the constant criticism of individual players. All im criticising here is the formation and tactics. Not the effort or intention. Im glad we won of course, but I think we're literally cruising for a bruising. As my old gran used to say. I think we could line up much better and a backs against the wall jammy win doesn't make me think otherwise. If its the 5 hes going with i think he should play Tierney on the right rather than left of the back 3. But I'd rather go back to the 4231 which we were doing well with. The early games playing that against excellent teams like Belgium and Russia give a false reflection. We were getting positive results playing like that at the end of the campaign. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Keep the back 3 they look really settled already. How long has it been since scotland looked like keeping a clean sheet never mind doing it 3 times in a week. Shitfesting is the way to go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian38018 Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 It is all a bit academic just now folks. You can be sure we will have four or five injuries for the November ties.....plus probably a few COVID casualties. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If the Czechs draw against Israel and hammer Slovakia, both at home, we would need at least a draw away to either Slovakia or Israel. Lose these both and we would blow it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnydun Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Clarke is doing things that should have been done years ago, playing guys that are on great domestic form and not because of the club they play for. Hats aff. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingRocketman II Posted October 14, 2020 Share Posted October 14, 2020 Happy to see that team start the next match with Robertson in for Taylor. very strong bench options with Christie, Armstrong, Tierney and hopefully Griffiths available. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The way I see it, guys like Christie, Tierney, McGregor etc..... They ain't used to having their backs to the wall and don't know how to handle the pressure, they've had it on easy street for so long. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
