Pick the team: Holland v Scotland

Recommended Posts

Following on from the currrent Scotland best XI, which team would you put out in the Amsterdam ArenA?

 

Allan McGregor will start in goal so no point putting Gordon in there.

 

Injured players: Hutton; McManus; Weir; Broadfoot; Hartley; Thompson; Robson; Commons; Maloney; McFadden; L. Miller.

 

skysports.com seems to think Hearts defender Christophe Berra will start.

 

Your squad to choose from is:

 

Defenders

Graham Alexander (Burnley)

Darren Barr (Falkirk)

Christophe Berra (Wolverhampton W.)

Gary Caldwell (Celtic)

Jamie McAllister (Bristol City)

Steven Whittaker (Rangers)

Gary Naysmith (Sheffield United)

 

Midfield

Scott Brown (Celtic)

Barry Ferguson (Rangers)

Darren Fletcher (Manchester United)

James Morrison (West Bromwich Albion)

Gavin Rae (Cardiff City)

Gary Teale (Derby County)

 

Forwards

David Clarkson (Motherwell)

Steven Fletcher (Hibernian)

Chris Iwelumo (Wolverhampton W.)

Ross McCormack (Cardiff City)

Kenny Miller (Rangers)

 

My team:

 

McGregor



 

Whittaker Caldwell Berra Naysmith

 

Teale Fletcher Ferguson Brown Morrison

 

Miller

 

:hanged:

...and whilst I wouldn't be willing to put money on it, I think you have ten right and would lose your cash. I have a feeling that the midfield will be as below with Miller up front.

 

Morrison Brown Ferguson D. Fletcher S.Fletcher

 

I am less sure as to who would be on the wings, S.Fletcher (if selected) will be on one wing with either Brown or Morrison on the other IMO.

Can't be bothered trying - it's impossible / embarrassing trying to pick an international XI from that squad. The Holland minus 1 (or maybe even minus 2) goal start bet looks a stick on.

 

Burley's becoming deluded if he think's a midfield of Brown, Fletcher and Ferguson is the answer to our problems. And if he has dropped our best player, Gordon and Boyd because of lack of first team games (which is fair enough), how can he possibly consider Hutton for Wedneday, who has had less first & reserve team games than Gordon?

...and I think you might need to re-read the O.P. again. ;)

Think bh was referring to the fact we have no choice in who goes in goals!

 

Holland -1 will be in my accumulator tomorrow.

Nope, I was referring directly to your O.P. ;)

 

You never gave us an option for a goalkeeper, your squad that we could choose from only included outfield players.

Honestly dont care now! The minute boozy picked that useless erse McGregor I lost all faith in the clown!

 

If Berra plays I really hope he plays well but have no interest in the rest of them!

McGregor



 

Whittaker Caldwell Berra Naysmith

 

McCormack D.Fletcher Ferguson Brown Morrison

 

Iwelumo

 

With Miller and S.Fletcher coming on for McCormack/Morrison/Iwelumo

 

My reasons for Iwelumo is he is a big strong guy, and when I was in Cardiff to see Cardiff Wolves he won everything in the air, something we may need.

 

FWIW I dont think McCormack, Iwelumo or Whittaker will start.

Haha yes well I knew that, too! I'd prefer to see your team than mine but I think GB will go with my team.

Mixed between causion and optimism...but no one is expecting a repeat of 2003 though from what i gather! I'll be watching it with my scottish family here in Edinburgh so i hope i don't get kicked out! hehe

Not that I think we have a chance, but I am not overly convinced by Ooijer and have not seen much of Mathijsen and Stekelenburg. Also, I am surprised that Engelar is not involved, I thought he was excellent last time I saw him at the Euros.

Perfect SFA team selection. And a 4-0 gubbing.

 

I reckon there will be 3 huns and 2 tims.
