Che Adams

It's a hell nay, from me!

If he wanted to represent Scotland, either he should've made a decision before now or make him wait till after Euro 2020.

This is not a question of idealism, etc. It's a matter of wearing a jersey that players like Law, Dalglish, etc, wore with absolute pride!

This guy rejected us as he wanted to wait to see if England came calling, which is fair enough, he is English.

I don't like this at all.

Southampton striker Che Adams in line for a call up to the Scotland squad despite playing twice for England at Under 20 level

Why is there a second Che Adams thread 🤣

[ceudmilefailte]

For any one who cares despite 7 goals and four assists whoscored.com  reckon McBurnie is a far better player!

lol

That's funny!

On SofaScore, Adams just about edges it with general attributes as well as season's ratings.

England in the Euro 2020 playoffs? They won their group by miles!

Obviously, I meant during our play offs 

Doubt he was home watching it, singing flower or Scotland waving a thistle around.... or just... watching it, at all.

Because this one is a poll.

And it looks like you're on the fence. Fair enough.

If Stuart Armstrong had anything to do with this, then it's another assist against Scotland.

Well done, Agent Armstrong.

I’m too old and long in the tooth nowadays and having seen too many other countries exploit this ruling then I’m afraid if it’s okay with Steve Clarke it’s okay with me....

Same with me.

I don't mind using the rules. It's the "he rejected us three times", he played zero part in getting us to the Euros, but now he wants to bathe in the glory.

Is it any different to Dykes?

Dykes would have played for Australia u21s had he been selected.

Dykes had a clear choice between us and the Australia seniors. He chose us. Like the way McTominay did, with us over England.

Adams rejected us, three times in the past.

Is that the site that suggested Duffy was one of the best defenders in Scotland? 🤣

[Caledonian Craig]

I fully see where Taylor1996 is coming from.

However, I will always support any player in the Scotland jersey so he will get my backing when on the pitch as the decision will have been made by the manager and has to be abided by.

But there is no way on earth anyone will ever convince me Scotland is in his heart or ever was. Its a decision of convenience because he realises he has no chance of getting called up by England. He has rejected three previous approaches by Scotland - even one rejections says it all let alone three. It really riles me to see our fans lauding him up after he has metaphorically shat in their faces three times. End of rant.

[tjm007]

Decent player and in an area where we are well short of quality.

 

Get him in PDQ.

Yes a lot difference to Dykes. As far as I know he never rejected us three times to three different managers over three years and at least Dykes has also spent time in Scotland where I doubt Adams has.

Regarding all of the other countries which exploit this rule, we have no way of knowing if any of their players was asked 2 or 3 times; I bet none of them are bothered by that though. But with Scotland we seem to expect our selections to sign up in their own blood.

Look, I hate the granny rule but we still use it far less than most countries and only in the case of emergency. And believe me our striker situation IS an emergency.

I hope you are being tongue-in-cheek. Time to leave this fifth-columnist thing about Armstrong alone. Did his dog urinate on your prize geraniums or something?

If you are comfortable and happy that a player can effectively tell us to **** off three times and then feel pleased about him representing us then I am stunned.
