With the exception of Gordon, he has more caps than anyone in our squad. With the exception of Hanley, he was our best performer at the Euros. He also has more top tier medals than any player in our squad. Not to mention, he is our Captain. He's allowed a dip in form more than anyone else. And Tierney is more likely to be dropped than he is right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta be a long time since 2 Scots started in a Serie A match. Binks also came on who is eligible, has previously played for Scotlands youths but last played for England u19s.

He’s different class, it won’t be an issue when he bulks up a bit more - which he will. It’s not unreasonable to think he could be the best player in the EPL in about three years from now.

er yir macaroon Posted September 26, 2021 Share Posted September 26, 2021 Barrie Mckay getting a lot of praise for his performance yesterday. He could still have something to offer if he continues to do well. Hearts fans must be pleased to see him and GMS in the same team. If they both hit form in the same game it would be a joy to watch.

Ralston & Turnbull also start for Celtic, a lot less Scots in their team nowadays I am guessing by the scoreline he had a decent game? Very promising for a 16 year old to be starting at centre back against Celtic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

United also had 21 year old Kieran Freeman at RB. Jota gave him quite a hard time though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Defensively did well and was really composed on the ball, splitting the Celtic lines a number of times with forward passes. Really looking forward to seeing how he develops with games under his belt, he could potentially play 100 league games before he becomes the same age Nathan Patterson is today. Really good potential.

In better news, Liam Henderson had a good game in Empoli's midfield and played a part in two of their goals. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd think Henderson would be the least likely of the 2 to become a Scotland International, but stranger things have happened. If he is playing every week in Serie A, we can't ignore him. Though not exactly sure he could possibly supplant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I think he will be sold long before he reaches Patterson’s current age. Let’s hope he picks the right club to develop in the right way. He certainly has massive potential. 16 but played like a 25 year old. Also Played Right back against Dundee to become youngest ever United player in a Dundee derby but CB is his best position but not many will play CB at Parkhead at 16 and not look out of place.

Longer term Hickey has more potential, and although he's had a couple of difficult games lately he'll surely learn and benefit from the experience. As for Henderson, he certainly faces a challenge because he plays in a position where we are strongest. However, the likes of Armstrong, Fleck and McLean are all about 30 now and struggling with form or fitness, so while I don't think Clarke will make too many new additions at this stage (unless he has to), Henderson might have an outside chance if can maintain his form.

As much as I'd like him to reach 80-100 games, I suspect he'll be at a top 6 academy by the end of the season. Especially considering that supposed 500k release clause.

ProudScot Posted September 27, 2021 Share Posted September 27, 2021 To be honest Celtic could do with Kerr Smith at CB at the moment so there must be lots of teams looking at him if he can play like that against one of the old firm at the back at 16.

Which part do you disagree with? The whole of the first paragraph is inarguable. The second paragraph says Tierney is more likely to be dropped than Robertson. Up until this weekend, him and his team were the ones out of form. So, Tierney would obviously be first on the chopping block. But, of course, neither should be dropped if fit.

scotlad Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 Also doing well in League One - which isn't the best standard, admittedly - is ex-Rangers and Livingston forward Ryan Hardie, who's with Plymouth now. Currently he's scored 9 in 12. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
