Also spent various spells on the bench knowing he wouldn’t get a cap but still turned up for squads. Also was excellent & also is Key to why we have the play off to look forward to next year. Would take him back in a heartbeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would take him back in a heartbeat Retired after he was 37 (I think), turns 38 in January. Obviously a lot won't agree but I'm with you, I'd have him back in the team for the playoffs. He is a far superior goalkeeper to what we have. Some of the saves he made in the nation's league are the reason we are in the playoffs, Marshall doesn't have those sorts of saves in him. I genuinely worry what will happen if we come up against Haaland with our Central defence and Marshall in goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wanderer Posted November 23, 2019 Share Posted November 23, 2019 Reports from Liverpool said Robertson only resumed training on Thursday and was a doubt up to an hour before the kick off today. Tierney it was his club that asked for him not be selected, not the player. I am prepared to give both players a pass from the recent squad and both will be back in March and hopefully fully fit (with Tierney having at least 4/5 months of action under his belt).

Maybe so, Tierney could have also easily asked Arsenal to say that, they would be delighted to speak for him to be left out. I see that most of the players that are in and around the squad and that are frequently on social media, were mentioning the good results last week. Tierney kept his usual silence on all things Scotland.... Edited November 23, 2019 by Bobby Russell's Lovechild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very generous of you and a shot of anti venom into the overall debate over withdrawals. Although I hate the constant negativity, I'm not sure I totally agree with giving them both a pass but what's the alternative? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WCTA Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 Liverpool must have one heck of an amazing physio. Who’d have guessed that Robertson with his injury would be able to play the full 90 minutes too? 😏 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whether it's the clubs putting on pressure, or the players themselves that can't be arsed, as a fan i can't accept this shite. I see the Ireland team a lot... see them play... see the media...see the build up. They're all committed, all focused. Players like James McLean would run through walls (probably Derry's) for his national team. Funnily (and appropriately) enough the only player whose commitment that's ever been questioned by Irish fans was a Scot - namely James McCarthy. Club beats Country for many Scots professional players unfortunately.... sad state of affairs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave78 Posted November 24, 2019 Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) I kept Robbo and Fraser selected in my EPL fantasy team despite them being officially marked as 'doubts' in the app. That's how sure i was they'd feckin play. They both came good... an assist each. Edited November 24, 2019 by Dave78 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having said that, if liverpool had been playing last Saturday, would he have played? Absolutely yes. I don't think it's that our best players aren't interested, they're just more committed to their clubs. I'd be all for leaving anyone who withdraws for spurious reasons out the next squad to send a message, but it just so happens the next squad is our biggest game for years. Clarke's got a tough decision to make IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
