"Telt"? Firstly, First Access Sports aren't Scottish, they're English. (with players from Chelsea and Southampton on their books) And secondly, I highly doubt a reputable footballer agency would give out falsified information. But you crack on. You do you.

Can he play right back as well.? I believe his second position is CB. Given our sheer gulf of left backs, hopefully he transitions there as he gets older.

You're just arguing against every source that says he's two footed. For the record, I've never even seen him play, which is why I'm not talking him up.

Two-footed means equally confident with both feet. I’ve seen him play, and the player has seen him play, and he’s not two-footed. Who said he was “atrocious”? Not me.

The people giving me pelters for not knowing the strongest foot of some Scotland players players, I hope they watched "MOTD: Top 10 Center Halves" last night, as Gary Lineker and Alan Shearer thought that John Terry was left footed. Next, the same old people will be pulling me up for not knowing the players parents names, or what year players were born or which Primary School they attended. 😛 I would say that those two don't morons know their ar*e from their elbow. To say Doig can use his right foot certainly does nor mean he can play as a right back. Any decent left international midfielder will know exactly where a player's weakness is. Back up right back should go to Patterson not Doig. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
syecosse Posted May 25, 2021 Share Posted May 25, 2021 Have seen an article on not the old firm saying there will be a training camp for the under 21s with possible games, players mentioned as likely in are Slicker Man city Clayton Liverpool Doing Hibs and now Hibs Mackay Joseph Wigan Anderson Newcastle Urain Atheletico Bilbao Hopefully others that have done well like Fiorini, Holsgrove, Ashby and King.

Be good if the Anderson one is true, especially. He was being courted by England. I would like the U21s to play in exactly the same sytem as the big team, so that it becomes easier to slot in when the youngsters are promoted.

Ah well squad announced no Anderson in there or Ashby and Holsgrove. Apparently Anderson has not committed to either, would imagine the fact England have a lot of young attacking players in similar positions may mean Scotland could have a chance.

Holsgrove is too old bud. You need to have turned 21 in the calendar year that qualifying starts. He turns 22 in September. Ashby has had a few injury problems and I've not seen anything about England with him. He also retweeted Maxwell and McIntyre recently who he is in the Scotland set ups with. England also have about a hundred RBs at the minute at every level. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nice one to follow, sounds a real talent. Think your right about Ashby, got injured just before our qualifier against Greece & I'm not sure he has played for West Ham since. Only seen him play for 20 or 30 minutes for the under 21 but i liked the look of him, small but looked pretty fast, strong & skilful. It might be a bit daft at this stage to compare but looked a similar style to Keiran Trippier. If he turns out anywhere near as good as him we could end up having endless debates on here about how we get Patterson & Ashby in the same team. Ready when your are Taylor😉🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

syecosse Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Liam Smith is on the BBC wonderkid challenge for free kicks, also apparently there is a Scotland under 19s get together but nothing announced apart fro.
