mcguffin Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 Do you think Steve Clarke might tweak the tactics and formation in some way to go for the draw on Monday? I can't think what those tweaks might be. But Steve Clarke might? (He was assistant coach to Mourinho for long enough?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toepoke Posted November 13, 2021 Author Share Posted November 13, 2021 Quite a few Danish fans out in Glasgow tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Pete Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021 We have nothing to fear on Monday night. Denmark are obviously a very good team but they are not invincible. We competed very well in the second half in Denmark and there’s no reason we can’t take something at Hampden. Georgia and Montenegro have shown this week that the big guns don’t always win. Are Denmark even one of the big guns?  Let’s give it a right good go and see what happens. If we lose we lose but I have a feeling we might just spring a surprise. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thesaint Posted November 13, 2021 Share Posted November 13, 2021  Aye,let's be honest.That Christian Erickson incident has really galvanised them in their support for the national team.It's still a sort of novelty for them to be following their team in big numbers.Still,hope they enjoy their trip to Glasgow,and that they aren't too dissapointed come Monday night.Well,to be honest i hope they are f..king devastated.CMON SCOTLAND..LET'S DO THEM.

I was going to post something similar. We held our own in the second half against them in Copenhagen and since then the team has pumped full of confidence having won five must win games on the bounce. Lets not forget the small point that we are at home so less of the timmerin' beastie shit. Pump our chests out, be proud, be confident and get a result.

Guest Scot1 Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 Looking forward to this game, should be an exciting watch. And it’s a good chance to see how we measure up against a very good side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Notwithstanding Eriksen, the other players absent for Denmark are Andersen, Norgaard, Hojbjerg, Damsgaard, Dolberg and Braithwaite. They're still well covered in defence and attack but possibly we look very strong in midfield imo - Delaney, Jonsson, Wass and Stage their only recognised midfielders.

For them, it's a good chance to experiment and play some fringe players. They'll be out to impress, but I don't think Denmark have the squad depth of France. They are fringe players for a reason. I'll take a boring 0-0 draw any day, but I think we have the personnel to beat most teams in a one off match. If we can score first, it's no cup final for them, so it may just be possible to hold onto a lead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borojock Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I think we are more than capable of getting a draw which hopefully gets us seeded which would be huge Home advantage on Monday, 5 wins on the trot, we've got something massive to play for and they dont (i know they have the 100% record but not on same scale as what we have t play for) I would go 3 1 4 1 1 Gordon Hendry Cooper Tierney McGregor O'Donnell McTom Gilmour Robertson McGinn Dykes Keep it tight and look to stop them playing if 0-0 after an hour maybe look to make a few more attacking subs but i think a draw would be great one to hopefully get the seeding but two to keep the positive momentum going Already excited for tomorrow night cant wait Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noctonjock Posted November 14, 2021 Share Posted November 14, 2021 I think its difficult for Clarke to put Dykes straight back in after Adams scoring on Friday. Got a feeling he might play both Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumably he’s picked up a knock in training or possibly his last match QPR match and hasn’t managed to shake it off? Either way it’s a blow if he doesn’t make it. Fair play to him for staying with the squad. Lots of others would be straight back to their clubs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
