What’s Lewis Ferguson got to do to get a game?

 

Come on Shanks!

Let's wait and see what the formation/tactics are.  Clarke has made it clear we can expect to see something  different tonight and Shanks is the man it will resolve around.

Rumour was Gordon told the board that Snodgrass was a complete weapon when at Hearts

Only in Scotland would there be a debate about not taking our best keeper. If Gordon was at Celtic or The Rangers you'd never hear this nonsense.

How right he was. Loves himself that boy.

An away game against Netherlands up against the best Centre Back in the world isn’t exactly a chance to shine.   I’d rather see him get full 90 v N Ireland.  I just don’t think Clarke will give him many chances to stake his claim.  The other argument of course is that this is the kind of opposition he can come up against in Germany (although I’d argue Hungary and Switzerland aren’t as good and possibly Germany at the moment too).  
 

Great to see him start but hopefully not at the expense of him getting chances in the other friendlies. 

 

I think Shankland is already in the Euro squad as a late super sub. Clarke isn't wasting 1 of only 4 remaining preparation games to prove someone isn't good enough. And I don't think the centre forward is the key part of Clarke's gameplan anyway. The key players are the midfield and attacking full backs.

What a test for Shankland up against probably the best defender in the world. Go and smash it lad!

If we are going to be consistent about keepers who have been injured not coming straight back in, how is Gunn in ahead of Clark?!

Nice to be playing some friendlies with a bit of relevance for a change, looking forward to the two games.

Brilliant opportunity for Shankland. A tough game but Clarke knows what he's doing giving him this game to see what he can do. Delighted he is playing in what is the strongest team available not with a bunch of other second string players all trying to make an impression.

Absolute bitterness pouring out of him, so thick he can’t disguise it!

Looking forward to seeing Gordon on at half time. When was the last time Hearts had two captains playing for Scotland?!

It's poor. Because a lot of people in the game will know what happened. He had the chance to be the bigger man and blew it.

Won't be too disappointed if he makes a couple of howlers!

I thought BBC were supposed to show these friendlies.  I guess that's not the case.

 

I refuse to subscribe to Viaplay.  Its shite.

The shirt actually looks better than the promotional pictures, not keen on the shorts still

But of a double edged sword with Shanks

If he goes well it probably increases the likely hood of him going but probably also increases the price we will get for him

Shankland started well. Getting involved. 

 

New unusual position as centre forward.

Great start from Shankland, good touch and link up play. Doing very well!

Not sure we can see a new style yet. Perhaps keeping possession more, more careful build up.
