accies1874 Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Fraser for Armstrong, Adams for Dykes, Gilmour for McTominay. We'll miss McTominay in certain respects as he's been a pretty effective driving force which Gilmour (or any other option) is unlikely to bring, but he's proven before to be useful in tough away games by how he uses the ball. Clarke seemed to suggest both full-backs are fine so no change there. It's gonna be a long, long night. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jagfox Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 I can't see McSauce being dropped. I would assume Adams will come in for Dykes. I don't think Armstrong will drop out either tbh. The rest depends upon injuries. Amazing to see not much drop off for all the changes at full-back. I suppose the big question is will we go with three or four at the back? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Insanity Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Clarke specifically mentioned Jack and McLean when asked about McTominay's absence so suspect it will be one of them. Adams I think is a given, Fraser I suspect will start. McGregor and Christie to run to Poland. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd probably be looking to Jack in that case, although it might tell us something that Clarke's looked to McLean to see these games out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quentin Taranbino Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 Yeah I think he will play McLean to replace McTominay. He is clearly a player that SC likes and trusts and I think he would drive forward a little more than Jack or Gilmour would so think he will get nod. Adams will come in for Dyles Would also be surprised if Fraser didn't come in too probably for Armstrong 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
No_Problemo Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 It would be fucking mental to start McLean over Gilmour IMO. I can see why he may choose McLean to come on to see out a game over Gilmour, but definitely not to start. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can understand Gilmour not coming on tonight to an extent. Best to keep him out the road of that ireland team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boo Khaki Posted September 24, 2022 Share Posted September 24, 2022 I've always thought playing Gilmour and McGregor together as the pair in midfield was a bit of an issue for us, but to be fair to them that's only really been true when we've stupidly done that with two forwards and left ourselves woefully short in midfield. If it's a back four again, or we switch to the 3/5, and we're only playing with one up top, then I'd be less wary of both Gilmour and McGregor together because there will be a third player, presumably McGinn, playing in that bank. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact we haven't seen Gilmour in either game suggests to me he's miles off in terms of fitness. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, that's frustrating. He was seen as a great hope for the future of the midfield and looked to develop into a great playmaker for the national side, but he seems to have fallen away. I can remember thinking that he was a shoe-in for 100 caps. If earlier performances (and hype) from the relatively recent past had been an indication of his quality and progress, a physically and match fit Gilmour would be a massive asset. Here's hoping... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
