Guest Scot1 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 We need Tierney at left wing back. He gives us the offence we need down the left. We could go to a back 4 against the Faroes, I personally wouldn’t. I’d stick with the back 3 and bring in young players and fringe players after the Austria and Israel games. Introduce them and get them playing within the system that we are playing with the “A” team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burj_Alba Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 Burke, Fleck to a lesser extend, absolute dogsh*te, Tierney absolutely magnificent. Could even get the nod over Robbo at left back for Austria match . So the question changes, where else can Robertson play? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only other option I can see if play a back 4 and play robbo left back and play KT further ahead. Is KT really that bad with his right foot?

Burke needs to just be in the championship and probably on the wing. Id be interested to see the stats between Tierney & Robertson this year Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could try switching them but I’m not sure Robertson would do so well as a Left Centre Halve. I’d drop him and push Tierney out to LWB, bring in Cooper or McKenna as Left Centre Halve. Robertson can play against the Faroes. Clarke won’t do it though, which is why I’m not so optimistic about our chances to make the World Cup, even though I believe we have the players to give it a good go. Don’t think Clarke will be ruthless enough. Edited March 14, 2021 by Scot1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor1996 Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 If we go back to a flat back four, Scotland will go back to losing matches and failing to qualify for tournaments and I will go back to talking up the virtues of playing with a back 3 If anyone wants to talk tactics/formations, there's tons of dedicated threads. Scott McTominay starts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romanticscot Posted March 15, 2021 Author Share Posted March 15, 2021 Robbo is not as diverse as KT, but I reckon he would play anywhere you asked him but likely would not be as comfortable playing or in his mental state as Kieran. The Faroe game is the best and likely only opportunity to experiment, I wonder if we will play against them with 4 at the back anyway.

Templeton_Peck Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I think definitely for the Israel game then Tierney should play LWB. Robertson has struggled for any joy against their right back Dasa. I think he could play either LCB or still do a decent job at RWB. I would like to see McIntyre of Reading called up and Mctominay in midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mccaughey85 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 I think ppl are forgetting how reliable a full back Robertson is. He's been a consistent performer for one of the best sides in Europe and just because Tierney has had some great games recently doesn't suddenly mean he is a better player than Robertson. They are both similar standard which is great for us as they are excellent players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can Robertson not play on the right? Do they? I would say they are both about the same standard. Tierney has a bit more flair and ability to skin guys but Robertson is an excellent defender and has been performing at a high level consistently for years now.

weekevie04 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 (edited) Tierney has to start a LWB. Can we not even play them both and switch around throughout the game, the best game for this would have been the Faroes but no doubt one of them will be out for that. Tierney was a much better threat in that position when we played there against Slovakia in November, than Robertson had been in the previous few he played there.
