Bobby Russell's Lovechild Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) See that McTominay has been moved further forward in the formation today, just behind Højlund Edited October 29, 2023 by Bobby Russell's Lovechild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tartan blood Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 48 minutes ago, Hertsscot said: It's depressing but I think he's probably going with what he's got for the minute. Realistically we've only got Wright and Souttar who might start, can't remember whether Jack is injured again. Sadly Hibs only had one Scot in their starting players (excluding Martin Boyle). I wonder what will happen if SPFL clubs become feeder clubs for England. I worry that we'll see even fewer Scots getting a game. It'll get significantly worse. The SFA need to step in and make much more stringent rules. England enforced their own homegrown rules a few years ago and they are dominating at pretty much every age group, with a senior team that will be one of the favourites for the Euros. It works. Put in strict rules and Clement and Rodgers will spend £3m on a Scottish prospect instead of a foreign one. Honestly, it feels like the only reason Celtic and Rangers have any Scots at all is because they'd only be able to list 17 names in the champions league. There is no way Mikey Johnston or James McCarthy would still be at Celtic otherwise. (I know they are Irish, but the point applies) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobby Russell's Lovechild Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 Looks like McTominay has been their only good outfield player Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scot1 Posted October 29, 2023 Share Posted October 29, 2023 (edited) Patterson had a decent game today for Everton. Hopefully it’ll lead to him getting the jersey as 1st choice right back. And to be honest, although he has lots to learn, he is Everton’s best right back. Everton have a decent starting 11, if they can keep them fit and available I think they’ll be comfortably mid table by the end of the season.

It’s a club steeped in mediocrity from top to bottom. Hope he can play well and get another move. We ain't exactly Spain or Brazil ourselves. Don't see a problem with our young players heading to Everton if they get gametime there. Any epl club willing to play our young players should be encouraged even if it's one of the weaker sides.

A quick google suggests he is out until after the next international break. Thank goodness we have already qualified. A slower google suggest he might be back for our games but not available for Norwich until after the international break.

Gala Tartan Army (Borders) Posted October 30, 2023 Share Posted October 30, 2023 Cannot see Gordon playing for Hearts before international break. Think it will be Zander Clark between the sticks for final qualifiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted November 1, 2023 Share Posted November 1, 2023 Ryan Jack back in starting line-up for Rangers tonight scored a tap-in. Patterson on the bench for Everton and got on for the last 10 minutes. A goal for David Turnbull for Celtic too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've paid a huge amount of money for him & he is/was a cracking player. That poison chalice of a club has a knack of dragging player's down a level or 2 so as far as mctominay is concerned he might be better off getting out of there & playing for a team that uses him in a position that suits him.

I think its time for Scott to move on to secure regular 1st team football. Newcastle would be a great move IF he can get a starting berth.

McTominay, in the first half, was one of their better performers against Man City. I didn't see the Newcastle game but, apparently, Mount was rubbish. I would have McTominay over Mount any day. Amazing it took his national-team manager (who hardly sees him) to find his best position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tartan Chris Posted November 3, 2023 Share Posted November 3, 2023 Bologna got a really good chance of qualifying for europa league so can see Ferguson staying another season. Will surely be on the radar of some of the top clubs over here as he's made a really good impact in Serie A and score v some decent teams. Well worth at least one start this month.
