Soapy called up for Scotland

Well done and well deserved.

 

He's better than Bates and McKenna but I think McLeish will stick with that partnership after winning the last two with them.

What have you made of Bates performances this season? I've only seen two HSV games this season and he's been very good.

I would argue he's better than McKenna, Bates possibly though. 

 

The future is actually quite good for the national side defensively.

McNulty ??????????? should get pumped just for that selection. Surely only cause he's playing for one of his favourites

Jesus Christ what a terrible squad that is. Congrats to Soapy & to former Jambos Jon & Callum but that squad is embarrassing

Hopefully Souttar pulls out of the squad ahead of the games, we've potentially got some big games coming up and I'd rather our players didn't risk injury for this pointless endeavour.

I actually think it’s quite a good squad. Good options to play a 4-3-3, or even a 3-4-3.

 

Souttar - McKenna - Bates

Robertson - McGinn - McGregor - Tierney

Forrest - McBurnie/Paterson - Fraser

There is actually  the basis of quite a decent team there with guys like Robertson, Armstrong and Fraser all playing at a high standard every week and if McTominay can reproduce performances like he did against PSG then he would be an asset. The defence (Robertson/Tierney aside) and forwards are really really poor though.

Armstrong is better than McGinn :)

Seen him a few times on BT for Hamburg and saw him for the 21's and full team.  He's a good prospect, especially defensively but his use of the ball is nowhere near as good as Souttar's.  They are the same age as well which is why I think Souttar is the better choice, far more experienced and a more rounded player.  Nothing against Bates though I think he's going along very nicely.

Not a chance Jon starts in goal. Bain will be number 1 now

Well done!  Hope he gets the chance to form a solid partnership in there. 

 

Well done John. Thoroughly deserved :clap:

Robertson right of a midfield 4? We have one of the best left backs in Europe right now and playing him anywhere else (even left wing back) is just stupid. 

 

If you want to play 3 at the back with wing backs then pick players that actually play as wing backs rather than shoe horning players that are excellent in their own position into the team.

So we should play a back 4, to the detriment of both our defence and our midfield, to fit Robertson? He’s more than capable of playing wing back, just look at the number of assists he’s produced this season.

 

I didn’t mirror the formation, would have robertson LWB. Even gives Tierney the option to play left sided CB.

Didn’t he pick up his last injury playing for Scotland?

 

Sounds daft but be happy if he doesn’t get a game

Sevco fans seething about lack of representation. With limited storage capacity, they quickly forget that McGregor has just retired from internationals (thankfully), Ryan Jack is mince and a hacker, and dirty, cheaty Morelos doesn't even have a Scottish granny.

 

Would have picked Zander Clark over Archer.

Absolutely dreadful squad. Would be ironic if this squad ends up being the first to qualify, it is so much worse than the squads from 2000-2010

McLeish needs to bite the bullet and choose either Tierney or Robertson. Accommodating them both ****s up the team. However, it would take guts to make that decision so I’m not holding my breathe.

I take it that that's Berra's international career over then?

Sad but probably for the better. I'm sure there's a young player coming through the ranks at one of the @$$ cheeks who will help us forget.

I’m baffled Kevin McDonald never gets considered.

 

He will be back in next season I hope in more positive circumstances.

McGinn doing okay in English Championship with mid table team.

 

Not quite international level yet.

I thought Steven Fletcher was injured or was that his twin with the same name that just scored for Sheff Weds? :lol:  they are actually ripping the ***** out McLeish

Yes, there is a couple of players that won't play on the pitch but still called up.
