There could be a concern with players wanting to occupy the same space in the final third, but otherwise I think there's a nice balance to it. Gilmour could obviously come in for Ferguson too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor is a quite significant downgrade on Robbo and Patterson is guff defensively compared to Hickey. Georgia won't be as bad as they were at Hampden. 2-0 Georgia. I wouldn't take it that far but I prefer Patterson in a back 5 so he can get forward and show what he is all about. I don't see us playing 4 at the back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KirkieRR Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 I think we should have flown some of the Hampden Giant Squeegee gang out and lined them up near the dugouts. Georgian team would be terrified. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the fan reaction I saw to the France friendly suggested Ferguson's performance was okay, but not great. Compare that to what Clarke and Carver thought. I think sometimes people only notice the clearest thing - which was Ferguson giving away lots of fouls. We kept the ball very well at times against France, and Ferguson was a big part of that. As always you can obviously then look at that, and evaluate if France allowed that to some extent. It’ll be interesting if he sees an increase in game time for this double header… 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ahemps Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 I would like to see a back 4 for these games, we played it before with some success and our choice of defenders is not as strong for this camp so we are trying to fill a space with a mediocre defender at the expense of a good midfielder somewhere. I think Clarke might stick with the 5 at the back though even though the main reason for a 5 (Tierney-Robertson scenario) isn't a factor this week. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted November 15, 2023 Share Posted November 15, 2023 I think this is still quite an important game. That bloody second goal in Spain probably means that it won't matter in any real sense. However, we are needing to try to regain some momentum. These last three games have obviously been against good sides. We've been well beaten in all three though, and we're in need of some good results ahead of the summer. A good win in Georgia - given our history there - would be a decent start. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We'll turn them over no bother. Oh young sire. Wiser heads than you said that about Zaire, Iran, Costa Rica, Morocco etc etc etc ....... When will people get it into their heads.....We are Scotland, we don't turn anyone 'over no bother' ! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Virtual Insanity Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 We turned over Georgia at home no bother, we turned over Cyprus away no bother. It's not a guaranteed 3 points, but even with the injuries we have that starting 11 should be beating Georgia away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very inconsiderate of the Georgians to live in a time zone that clashes with my work schedule. Also didn't realise this until I saw this post, although I do remember moaning about it when the fixtures came out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stephen Malkmus Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Georgia have lost only 1 of their last 10 home games (v Spain), winning 7 of those. 4-0 to The Caledonia. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clarke's tweaks aren't always as clear as deciding to play with two strikers, one holding midfielder etc. Never heard of him but if you want to see another example of this look at the first half of the Ireland away game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jives Miguel Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I'd like us to play the following Clark Patterson - Porteous - Hendry - McKenna - Doig McTominay - McGregor Ferguson - McGinn Dykes I'd even be up for a some wacky no striker malarkey with Christie coming in for Dykes, and either he or Ferguson playing some sort of false 9 role 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elgin Macca Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 looking forward to this one. (as I thought initially we would be needing to go here and win!). Now we can watch it relatively stress free. Not sure how Clarke will go for this one but with the players out I think a back 4 would give more balance to the team. something like: Clark Paterson Hendry Porteous Taylor Mctominay McGregor Christie Ferguson McGinn Dykes 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aye, but they only won one of the 10 previous to that run, so they're due to be shite again. Also, have you seen who they played? Good win over Sweden, but otherwise... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alan Twelve Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 What is the deal with everyone wanting McTominay playing deep alongside McGregor? Have you all missed all the previous games in this campaign? I'd like to see: A Keeper Ralston - Porteous - Hendry - Taylor McGregor - Gilmour McGinn - McTominay - Christie Brown I'd be very suprised if that happens though. I expect that Dykes and Patterson will start, and that we're more likely to see a back three. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
