His performances and stats indicate that he can and will be playing at a higher level, how high? I think he will be in the Premiership in a couple of seasons. Are we going to wait until then before we call him up when it’s pretty obvious that he is a player? Especially, considering it’s one area of the park where we don’t have an abundance of options.

Tartan blood Posted January 22, 2022 Share Posted January 22, 2022 Suspected broken jaw for Callum McGregor tonight! The form debate over McTominay may be irrelevant if McGregor doesn't recover swiftly. We're only 2 months away from the playoffs. Although you'd hope he'd be back by then, he'll miss a lot of football, as well as his confidence potentially being affected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scotlad Posted January 23, 2022 Share Posted January 23, 2022 Not good re McGregor. Hopefully it's not as serious as feared. What's happening with Ryan Jack, he seems to have vanished off the radar completely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our midfield worked well with him in it; his defensive style could have been an excellent foil for Gilmour. 30 minutes ago, 0Neils40yarder said: Seems that Hickey played at right back for Bologna this weekend He did, and he did okay. Didn't do too much going forward but he defended well. I reckon he looked less comfortable there than he does playing LB but not as uncomfortable as Robertson when he attempted to play there against Denmark.

Unfortunately picked up a yellow though so misses next game for Bologna (not sure when the next game is after that?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Armstrong was injured early season but has started last few games since coming back to full fitness. Playing right now (from the start) Yes of course that's what I meant about McTominay. The main point of starting this thread whilst there is long gap between games is determining whether some of the squad are doing enough to stay in (other than getting an injury) or whether there are others that might be playing well enough to get in to the next squad. Armstrong has only started 3 games all season and been sub in other appearances so might be one place where other options may be worth a shout. Quite a few names have been mentioned already.

bigfingers Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 Jacob brown seeing a little too much of the bench to be included next time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His inclusion in the first place was a bit odd tbh.

er yir macaroon Posted January 28, 2022 Share Posted January 28, 2022 I would think there’s a fair chance Jack will make the next squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly potential for one or two changes. Reckon Armstrong's lack of game time could be up for replacement also. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gkm_vancouver Posted February 27, 2022 Author Share Posted February 27, 2022 Well Stuart Armstrong seems to have picked up a good spell of form in a timely manner and Adams is knocking a few in. Despite the awful situation at present, assuming the game still goes ahead (no means certain) there are only a few places that might be available Keeper - Marshall maybe getting his place back? Defence - Replacement for Cooper if he doesn't return from injury Midfield - one from McLean, Turnbull, Ferguson or Fraser (if he grovels to get back in) Forwards - barring injury it should be Adams, Dykes, Christie and Brown Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
