Venti Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Might have been said already, but this is the kind of game we'll win even though we don't need to. Nevertheless, intae this mob! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you all missed all the previous games in this campaign? He was great deeper against Spain twice and away to France. Different kinds of games, obvs, but still good games there. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkoRaj Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Gilmour is a must start in an away game we need to keep the ball in imo 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VictorOnopko Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I'd really like to see Lewis Ferguson get a start. I realise our midfield options are a strength but he's doing really well in Serie A and this match (a dead rubber, but still an official qualifier rather than a friendly) would be an ideal one to give him more international experience and see what he contributes. Him, McGinn and McTominay with Gilmour and McGregor behind them would be nice, although I have a feeling Ferguson might just get subbed on later. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Venti Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Need to keep that Napoli boy quiet. He's a pler. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is no more a dead rubber than the Denmark game was. It matters if we care about Pot 2, otherwise it doesn’t. Assuming 4atb, I’ve no issues with whoever SC picks in midfield. It’s as strong a midfield in Europe outwith the obvious elite sides. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A fair point, but Georgia are basically pish, so we should be getting the big McTominator about their defence as much as possible, imo. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also matters because Spain haven't won all their games yet. Of course the chances of them slipping up are tiny, but imagine they concede an injury time equaliser to Georgia on Sunday and we're second anyway because we fielded a second-string side in Georgia and drew. That would be disappointing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2426255 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I don't see why we would play a second string side, where is that idea coming from? Steve Clarke will pick the team that he believes gives us the best chance of winning the game - all the press has been about halting the losing run and building momentum. The players chosen will be based on who best suits the game after the management team have analysed Georgia's strengths/weaknesses etc. If Ferguson or Brown or say Ralston are chosen it will be for a reason other than just resting key players or giving boys a run out. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

2426255 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Georgia v Scotland pre match press conferences. They have a lot of of translations so can be a bit of a hard listen, but thought I'd put them out there for anyone who likes watching them.

It's astonishing how many people still believe that Denmark went easy on us, despite them losing out on top seeded status thanks to us, and a lovely six-figure bonus per man too IIRC. 48 minutes ago, Alan Twelve said: It also matters because Spain haven't won all their games yet.

That would be disappointing. Despite mauling Georgia in the first game, it should be no surprise to anyone if Spain are kept at bay in the first half, only to change absolutely nothing about their gameplan and pass the ball about on the edge of the Georgian box for the entirety of the second. It probably won't happen, but Spain very much have that in them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
