Caledonian Craig Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Well we ended the half the better side but we didn't show much at all in attack. Thought Hendry di well but Hanley has to be subbed or we will be down to ten men. They love keeping the ball and are good at it too. Must do better. Get someone on for Hanley andĀ Fraser on for Christie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burj_Alba Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Better towards the end. Christie would have out that chance away a year ago.Ā Changes at HT. Need to get Hanley off, he is one mistimed tackle away from a red. Adams for Christie. Lovely to see O'Donnell ghost past Alaba. McTominey is just pure class.

bigfingers Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Canāt really complain too much about the first half. Playing a team who are ranked 20 places ahead of us is shown by the control Austria have had. If we stay solid we could nick something in the second half.Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romanticscot Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 (edited) Ok, it hasn't been great but its not been terrible, we can still get something here.Ā Tierney looked really positive, Armstrong seems sluggish at times, Christie need to raise it a bit, I reckon Fraser may come on for Armstrong and Hanley might get hooked for self preservation.Ā Thankfully they don't have a proven goalscorer.Ā Maybe change formation, but we are containing them to long range efforts.Ā Ā Edited March 25, 2021 by romanticscot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Chris Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Right old niggly game so far, this ref is missing so much. Think McTominay been far and away the best passer on the pitch, just lovely angles and drills it in to feet no problem with pace. Sadly he ain't playing with likes of Pogba and Fernandes here so it just rebounds back. Best player though on pitch. Think in this set up I'd rather have Tiernay bombing up and down the left and Robbo tucked in as LCB as feels like Tierney has the beating of their RB if he wa pushed forward. Big fan of Armstrong at club level but less said about him tonight and in a few other Scotland games, too many poor touches or wrong decisions in final third. Get Adams on at hour mark and see if he can link up with Dykes but so far feels like one of those early 0-0 home draws while the group favourites win one of their toughest fixtures type day. Seen this script many times before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkyBlueScot Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Not a bad end to that half. We've had the better chances. Tierney gives a spark and McTominay has been good. I have been unwilling to slag off Hanley recently but that wasn't great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thesaint Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 Started the match in reverse gear.Austria are a fair side,no more.Came into it in the last 15 minutes.Could do with pressing them more,and maybe bring Fraser on to stretch them on the right hand side.Still think there is something in this match for us.Play to WIN.

mccaughey85 Posted March 25, 2021 Share Posted March 25, 2021 both teams have been average/poor. we need someĀ cutting edge which hopefully fraser or adams can provide in the second half. i think its going to be very tough for us to win this group as denmark have full team of top players and i cant see us beating them in either game.
