He has got to earn his wage here, we've been diabolical but find ourselves level. Our midfield have been dreadful, constantly getting by passed and O'Donnell is being exposed time and again. Go and fucking engage them, if we stand off them we are going out, go and be brave for once and win it.

Some of the lads look a little leggy after all the effort against England. I'd maybe bring on Nisbett or Christie for Dykes.Dykes looks like he is running on fumes.

Forrest or Patterson for O'Donnell and Turnbull for Armstrong's. Turnbull's set pieces could be a big difference maker for us. Our set pieces aren't great from Armstrong and Robertson.

Armstrong is suspect he's given the ball away 4 or 5 times.

Every long ball fae Marshall is being won by Croatia, putting us under pressure again. We need to calm down and play the way we know we can

Have been bigging up Armstrong for last 12 months but he's been really disappointing in Scotland shirt. He looks good at Southampton as it's all about the mega press there so his all action style dosen't look too bad compared to international level where you need more composure on the ball.

Interested what Clarke does now. Croatia have really targeted O'Donnell's side with clever balls around him and he's found Perisic tough to handle.

Fraser surely an obvious sub given his energy up and down the right to help out and also whip in some crosses, Forrest also a decent shout.

Fraser, Nisbet, Forrest, Christie and perhaps even wildcard of Turnbull so Clarke has plenty of reasonable attacking options on the bench although can only use four of them.

Croatia are very dodgy defending crosses, don't win the first header much so really need to get some set pieces early in second half and see what happens.

We just don't have  defensive midfielders. Oh for a Souness or even a McCall. Croatia are just not being pressed.

And that comes from the manager, he's got it wrong again bit has 45 mins to get it right and make it history.

Terrible goal to lose, but they’re so much better than us. We’re getting shown up at the moment for being out our depth. 

No we aren't, they are wc finalists, if we were out of our depth it wouldnt be 1-1. They are going to have periods of dominance. This place goes from one extreme to the other.
