The Black Bra Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Can’t see any other logical option than Hanley & Cooper as centre defence against Israel. Being clueless here, but has Gilmour had a full cap yet? Can’t remember him getting one. Not even sure if he’s been in senior squad yet. Is there any chance he can be poached by anyone else, i.e., grandparents rule, had a pint of Guinness once, etc? We should get him capped if there’s any risk. When we’re 3-0 up against Israel bring him on for last 5 mins!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes sense to me, but the man in charge is likely to pick players hes had playing for him before... I think it's a certainty that McKenna will start with Gallagher. As a 'well fan, I'm a big fan of Gallagher but I'm not sure he'd start every week for Leeds or Norwich, while I'm absolutely positive that Cooper and Hanley would walk into our team, or that of Aberdeen.

bigfingers Posted February 29, 2020 Share Posted February 29, 2020 Playing Hanley and Cooper is a no brainier now. Top end championship and lower end prem is a much higher level than below the old firm in the SPL. For a bottom team Norwich haven’t been that bad this season. Nice to see Fraser with an assist. Another good option for us if he decides not to be injured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has had a solid game last night against 3rd in the league and a clean sheet. Norwich away at Spurs live on Wednesday. Looks like there's live games all week featuring Scottish players who should be in our team or squad for Israel. Interesting times. Would be the icing on the cake if Gilmour got game time. I'd have him in the squad regardless. He got 7.2 on who scored which is well above average for an EPL defender. In fact a lot of our Anglo's have come into pretty good form since the turn of the year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m pretty sure Naismith will be in the squad but I doubt he’ll start against Israel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SkyBlueScot Posted February 29, 2020 Author Share Posted February 29, 2020 I guess the idea for Gilmour's promotion to the first team is that he experiences match days etc but I'm not sure if it is worth it if he never gets on the pitch. Presumably Lampard wants him to play 10-20 minutes after Chelsea have wrapped up the game but there's not a lot of that going on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Watching their game today, i was hoping they'd wrap it up so i could see Gilmour on. Didnae happen of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mckenna isnt young. Alex mcliesh was winning a league title and at slightly less than one year older than mckenna is now, mcliesh was handling the strikers of bayern and real en route to a european trophy. Mckenna has regressed since his ego got too big. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
