scotlad Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Patterson had a good game, as did McGinn. Adams seems to be linked with a move to Everton too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant. Let's hope this is the beginning of him becoming a starter for them. A lot of Scots on display today. I can see us having even more players getting game time regularly at decent clubs than last season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nathan Patterson again has been good for Everton despite their loss. Good stuff, Doak could be a special player 🤞 Great news also Patterson starting & doing well & as someone else has said it's pretty mental we've gone from having such limited right sided options to having 2 starters & 1 on the bench Ashby in the EPL so quickly.

mcguffin Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Tierney on for the last 15 minutes for Arsenal. Looked good and played a couple of nicely weighted passes. Incidentally, he came on to replace Zinchenko, who had played superbly. Will be interesting to see how Arteta accomodates them both now that Tierney is fit again?

scotlad Posted August 13, 2022 Share Posted August 13, 2022 Hickey starts for Brentford; McTominay on the bench for Manchester United, who are currently losing 2-0. It'll be interesting to see who gets blamed this week. 🤔 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good guess another bad mct day though . He will be free to do the same headless chicken stuff for Scotland in about a month with absolutely no implications for him.

Him and McGregor look lightweight against decent opposition. Not convinced by Mctominay after the Dublin horror show. I’m not sure who can come in the next few matches.

In seriousness though the lad has a fair football brain on him for a 20 year old - different position but shades of Lambert about him in that regard and it can't be coached.

Our so called quality midfield always looks in trouble against better opposition , not convinced Clarke will do much about it as he seems fixed on his favourites . we cannot pick gilmour if he is rotting away at Chelsea dough nothing and mctominay continues to have his nightmares Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They'd been bullied all over the park but he at least brought some aggression and tackling, getting a yellow for his troubles. But they didn't lose any more goals... Hickey was very good. How many players have done a season in Serie A as a left back then a season in England as a right back? 😂 I noticed how comfortable he was using his left foot as much as his right. He looks a complete footballer and he could easily play in midfield if required. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I watched a few Bologna games last season and was knocked out by Hickey's two-footedness and his ability to play so well on the left or right. Could he play midfield? Why not? As for McTominay, from a selfish Scottish point of view, he'll be be learning a lot playing against tactically modern teams like Brighton and Brentford. Besides, he'll learn from Ten Hag and from training with the likes of Varane and Ericksen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has played under several top notch managers at United without it having a great effect on his performances for Scotland. It is not about learning for me it is about playing regularly in a confident team playing good football, feeling appreciated by management and fans allowing him to build some confidence which is shattered at United. He should jump ship at the first opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceudmilefailte Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 On a positive note mctominay had nearly three times as many touches of the ball yesterday in 10 minutes as he had in the first 45 last week. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vanderark14 Posted August 14, 2022 Share Posted August 14, 2022 Id like to see mctominay move too. Man utd aren't improving, if anything they are going backwards. A chance to see mckenna live today, forrest play west ham at home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he might have to make the best of it where he is for while yet? On a more positive note, I'm watching Nottingham Forest vs West Ham. McKenna playing on the left of a back three. Moves up wide left when Nottingham are attacking (reminds me a wee bit of the role Tierney plays for Scotland). Looking a class act so far.
