I doubt Clarke will start gilmour so swap in mcgregor. That should mostly be our team for the future.

I like it. Its quite simple really. We are not all professional coaches and managers, but we do know our football. Anyone in the Scotland camp that see's this formation, show Clarke.  Play this, we have a chance, dont play it, book your flight home. End of.....  Alba Gu Brath.....🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Virtually everyone thinks this should be the team

Pretty much. I wouldn't be against playing Gordon. And I have no idea how good Patterson is at defending, but I wonder if playing O'Donnell would be a bigger risk, especially since his confidence will be low.

Clarke never picks the team anyone expects, so I'm sure it'll be something none of us have written.

I don't think you need worry about the formation - it's some of the personnel that will make the difference.

Chick Young picked that, but added Turnbull and pushed McGinn up behind Adams.

There is quite a big difference between what we want and what we expect. I think that's why very few of us have mentioned Turnbull. I'm a big fan of his and I can see him breaking into the first 11 in the near future, but I'd be shocked to see him start or even get off the bench today.

I think Clarke will focus on the players with Premier League experience: Adams, Fraser, McGinn, McTominay, Armstrong, Robertson, Tierney, Cooper, Hanley and Marshall. Only the 3rd centre back and right wing back will lack Premier league experience. (Probably O'Donnell and Hendry)

Well rule out Hendry. I am sure our centre-backs will be Cooper, Hanley and Tierney.

Woops. You're right. I put down 12 names. I'd be tempted to play Hendry at RWB. Probably better defensively than O'Donnell and can get forward with less risk.

No we cannot afford that. Tierney already bombs forward. Can you imagine Hendry doing it too and we are left with Hanley to deal with a swift counter-attack.

Your maths has let you down Craig; we'd still have Hanley and Cooper left if Hendry is at RWB. One thing about Cooper - the way Leeds play he is often left on his own to deal with counter attacks.

Exactly. I was meaning a back 5 of:

Robertson LWB, Tierney LCB, Cooper CB, Hanley RCB, Hendry RWB.

No not really as I do not see Hendry being played as a right wing-back. No chance.
