I could see McArthur and Morrison deeper with Snodgrass ahead, that's probably what will happen, but I've lost trust in McArthur at this point, so I'd much rather we bought in someone else.

Would be amazed if Fletcher plays having not kicked a ball for us since Wembley. I would be amazed if Fletcher doesn't play. He is playing 90 mins every week in the Premiership and doing as well as any of our players on that league. I think he may have started anyway even if Brown was fit, in place of McArthur who never seems completely convincing in a Scotland shirt despite his goals. Would like to see Ritchie start. Think Morrison will start as well with the injuries. Surely not McGinn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

runningtings Posted September 29, 2017 Share Posted September 29, 2017 The big thing Armstrong brings is dynamism, carrying the play forward. So we need someone who has the energy to fill that role, I'd go with McGinn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No way McGinn will start, Fletcher maybe but Morrison certainly will and think it will be him and Ritchie or Philips with the other one of those to outwide.

I think it'll be the 2nd team Jamboman posted. I can't see him dropping McArthur, regardless of the recent game time. He'll be asked to close down Hamsik, with Fletcher organising everything beside him. The 1 behind Griffiths is the most difficult to predict.

Tartan Chris Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Coutts, John Fleck and McKay should all be in this squad considering the injuries in midfield. Even if they don't start integrate them now so they're ready for the 2020 qualifiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He gets more chances than any other player but fails to deliver for us...............watch him turn in the performance of lifetime on Thursday and score the window.
