Donathan Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Would be tempted to play a false nine formation and pass them off the park. Not a 4-6-0 in the Craig Levein sense but just getting the ball on the deck and overrunning them in midfield Gunn Porteous-Hendry-Tierney Hickey-Gilmour-McGregor-Robbo Christie-McTominay-McGinn 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if McTominay's effectiveness would be reduced were he to play in that position - probably better running into spaces made by the centre fwd I reckon. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordopolis Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 Completely random observation: I keep thinking that this game is at Parkhead for some reason. No idea why. Maybe the game we played against them in 2014 is lodged in my mind (Andy Robertson scored his first for us)? Anyone else, or is it just me? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I immediately think of Partick and the cricket ground. Now that would be some setting for Tuesday.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ClydeTon Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 2 hours ago, Highlandmagar said: A non event match., just to grab hard earned cash from supporters. Not worth the waste of space it is. Particularly as Scotland fans get themselves in such a froth over it. Nice use of the third-person there. P.S. - it's the opposite of a cash grab. UEFA/FIFA mandate that teams play 10+ games a year, and as we're in a group of five, we have two matchdays off. France (A) in October is a test against one of the best sides in the world, and this game is a game against a good team, our 'enemy', and it is also the anniversary of Scottish Football. I see nothing wrong with celebrating it. The only "cash grab" part is the price of the anniversary shirt, but apart from that, it's quite alright. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most people on here and fans of Scotland really don’t give a flying fcuk about the game on Tuesday. Sure we would like to win but it’s not a competitive game. If we meet at the Euros then it’s a different story. England on paper have a far better squad and would likely be favourites. They have far bigger resources and have made huge investments in their academy systems. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

eez-eh Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 If I didn’t care, I simply wouldn’t spend the best part of 2 pages telling everyone who’ll listen how little I care. Then again, I’m not a self-loathing oddball. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course Henderson has won a lot with Liverpool, and the rest are playing at good levels, but I genuinely don’t see much in it in all honesty, outwith Bellingham. When McGregor, McGinn, McTominay, and Gilmour all click, they are just Haven’t seen anything, but I am going to safely assume the usual Engerlander Britnats and pundits will be writing us off and predicting 5 or 6 nil victories for them? Score draw or Scotland to win for moi. Buzzing out my tits already for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Granny Danger Posted September 10, 2023 Share Posted September 10, 2023 The only reason not to be looking forward to this game is if you think we’ll take a hiding and that it will deflate our confidence. That’s not a reason not to play and not to watch. I’d like to think this game will have more of an edge to it than a normal friendly and will be played at a higher tempo. It’s a chance to test ourselves. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
