Depends how good he really is I suppose. If he’s as good as Robinson says and Lennon hopes he is, why isn’t he in Clarke’s squad? Clarke is half daft Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In this weekend of matches, half of the teams in the SPL have played it. But never mind. OK as long as you stop making out every one else is stupid, condescending git.

Texas Pete Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 1 hour ago, Taylor1996 said: No. SkyBlueScot brought it up 4 hours ago when he linked an article and then he commented on it. My post was in reference that that post. Look up. Oh look. Hibs and Aberdeen are playing it. I'd be surprised if he isn't in the first 11 by the end of September. He's the closest thing to a midfielder who can dictate play since Collins and McAllister. Why? Because Clarke is a doofus. It's funny, I like Clarke when he was at WBA, but now... I have no faith in him. SkyBlueScot brought up how fantastic you were for suggesting 3-5-2 two years ago? Clarke is a “doofus” because he doesn’t use your preferred formation or pick a young player that has just come back from an operation not that long ago? He’s a qualified coach and professional football manager. You are not. It might be worth bearing that in mind. Whether Turnbull should be in the squad just now is a matter of opinion and Clarke’s opinion is the one that counts at the moment. I’m sure he’ll be in the squad soon enough though if he breaks into the Celtic team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProudScot Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 McCrorie will be in the full squad soon especially as we have no right backs barring O’Donnell who must be the worst player in a generation to get regular caps.

Calling the Scotland manager a doofus because you, an unqualified person, disagree with his preferred formation and squad selection is, in my humble opinion, ridiculous.

ceudmilefailte Posted August 30, 2020 Share Posted August 30, 2020 5 hours ago, JECK said: No problem for Tierney, the issue is all of Robertson’s best work comes from out wide also - a lot of tremendous crosses put in yesterday. Can’t see Robertson just being able to stay inside a lot to allow Tierney to bomb on. I think the only way to accommodate both is to play Tierney defensively in a centrally/left of a back 3 and Robertson in his usual role. Assuming you meant centre left of a back four that's the way I see it too, why would you want one of the best left backs in the world playing any were other than leftback.

Of course if he doe's he got lucky and if he doesn't I was right He might not be that intelligent ( I really don’t know) but I don’t think you need to be to be a good manager.

I was replying to those posts. Do you just ignore everyone else's posts and just focus on mine? Skybluescot brought up the formation thing, when he linked the article. Turnbull should be in the squad. Period. If Billy Gilmour was fit and firing, he'd be in the under 21 squad. Wow, you are very much about the establishment, aren't you?
