Have to agree. He’s never been a first pick when everyone is fit. I like Gilmour, but he’s not a match-winner. Only three goals in his career, hardly assists and doesn’t bully his opponents. I know he retains possession and ‘recycles the ball’ (one for the wanky phrases thread), and the SFA will cream all over his ‘performance school’ progression, but there are a hell of a lot more players we’d miss more than Gilmour.
It may force Clarke into playing Christie in his club role and Curtis on the left. After today, that’s no bad thing.
Still gutted for Billy right enough. Brutal thing to happen the day before the squad fly out.
