Deefiant Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 A fucking disgrace that Shinnie isn't in the Scotland squad whilst Kieran Tierney is. Thank you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackiemyday Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 What a disgrace. The fact that Tony Watt is there tells you all you need to know also. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mackiemyday Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 I gave up caring about Scotland a long time ago, how that guy kept his job i will never know. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrewDon Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Shinnie isn't only the best player at Aberdeen, but very possibly in the Scottish Premiership. I'm struggling to think of anybody better at this moment in time. Utterly baffling call to exclude him. Pleased for Kenny McLean though. Well deserved. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oilcat Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Unreal..........but not really unbelievable that Shinnie has missed out again..........as long as Strachan keeps picking clowns like Hutton, Berra and Greer in his squads I canna take them seriously 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
capt_oats Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Shinnie not being in the squad is beyond mental. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackiemyday Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 The thing is people are trying to say it should be him or Tierney blah blah blah. They should both be in the team, good young players. How about he drops some of the dead wood instead. He will be happy to go into another campaign with Hutton,Greer and Berra in the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milners Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Some things never change Shinnie has been Aberdeen best player by a mile this season and also going with Inverness CT fans the same as last season but overlooked because of a Celtic young player that has recently got into the team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ira Gaines Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Apparently he's not been called up because Strachan knows what he can do and he wanted to give someone else a chance. Because of all of those chances Shinnie has had I assume. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A right back and two centre halves are keeping Shinnie out the squad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussellAnderson Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 Yes. A right back and two centre halves are keeping Shinnie out the squad Tbf if Hutton was out the squad, Whittaker would play RB and free up a LB slot 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Milners Posted March 10, 2016 Share Posted March 10, 2016 (edited) The thing is people are trying to say it should be him or Tierney blah blah blah. They should both be in the team, good young players. How about he drops some of the dead wood instead. He will be happy to go into another campaign with Hutton,Greer and Berra in the team. Disagree with Tierney as he has only played 24 games overall - hasn't looked that outstanding that he should be in the Scotland Squad but because he plays for Celtic that he is in the squad - if he was outstanding for Aberdeen I have no doubt he wouldn't be in squad. Also Andrew Robertson has been great for Scotland and deserves to be in squad that I have no doubt but the other place should go to Shinnie.

Desp Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Don't get me wrong, I like the fact that Tierney has been included in the squad. It's something we should be doing more in the national side, giving chances to 18/19 year olds. Despite the clusterfuck of Vogts' time, it worked out well for Gordon, D. Fletcher and McFadden. However, not also including Shinnie is beyond bonkers. As others have said, he's by far and away the best full-back in the country. For the national manager to say, with a straight face, he didn't pick an uncapped player because "he knows he can do a job" while picking Whittaker and Mulgrew in BOTH FUCKING SQUADS is, to put it mildly, unbelievably disrespectful to Graeme Shinnie. It's a sad state of affairs when our national manager has very little time for the game in our country. If Shinnie had played half a dozen decent games for Nottingham Forest, he'd no doubt get a call-up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mackiemyday Posted March 11, 2016 Share Posted March 11, 2016 Spot on, Am sick of seeing Strachan on ITV covering some early round FA cup game, when we have a fixture in the spfl which has a number of good young Scottish players involved in it. He will make a joke when some league 2 nobody scores a tap in saying he will look into him, see if he has a Scottish granny. Guy is taking the team backwards, why continue with a bunch of players who have failed a number of times. The standard response from his supporters is "well who is better", i don’t know the answer to that but we will achieve nothing if we carry on down this track. We not take a bigger bunch of youngsters in and get them involved in the team early, and develope the national team in a club side style. He should be picking young player who are in form at the time and giving them caps. From Aberdeen’s side Pawlett and Jack should of been given far more game time over the past year or so. There are guys at United, Hearts and other teams who should have got calls when they were playing well. Why is there a need to make these guys play 100 plus games for the club side before they are given a shot, by that time they might be out of form or not developed to a national team level? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pawlett shouldn't be anywhere near the national set up, and neither should Jack on the form of this season. A couple of seasons ago, definitely. Jack will get into form again and will hopefully be a part of the setup in the future. Shinnie is the standout player who should clearly be in the squad, along with McLean. I agree with you generally though. Sam Nicholson should be in the squad instead of the waster James Forrest, for example. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
