I’m just glad we are not warming up another team to go to a tournament which has pretty much been the case for the last 26 years. Great point, never thought of it that way 👍 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 16 minutes ago, Scotty2Hotty said: Before I answer, one caveat i will add is that many national teams don't recruit the very best managers as it's usually too mundane compared to managing a club team and not as lucrative. England have one of the best teams in the world and they have Southgate as manager as one example. If we are talking about realstic options then below is the names I would expect us to be typically linked with that would be interested in interviewing IMO: David Moyes John Eustace Tony Mowbray Alex Neil Derek McInnes Roberto Martinez (only if he fails really badly with Portugal then maybe a small possibility) Billy Reid I don't have a fucking clue who else as there is as there are a million coaches out there and I CBA looking at all leagues right now What an absolutely inspiring line up 😟 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texas Pete Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 5 minutes ago, Scotty2Hotty said: He has made mistakes in competetive games also (like every other manager in the world), the previous euro's, Ukraine, etc. It's not just based on the friendly matches. Those particular games I wasn't too fussed about as he was in the process of building the team still and figuring things out. He's built the team well over the last nations league/Euro QF campaign but there is still some question marks over some decisions IMO, like not blooding in certain players and continually sticking with the same 11, playing without wingers or having any in the squad etc. Doesn't mean I want him sacked or anything though. Yeah but this thread seems to have been resurrected because of the last 2 games. The players and formation used by Clarke on Tuesday should have been more than enough to beat NI but we lost and ultimately it doesn’t matter. If Clarke had been desperate to get a result against the Netherlands he wouldn’t have made the changes he did in that game. Some people (I’m not suggesting you are one of them) seem to think that we need to win friendlies at all costs and if we don’t we are in some sort of crisis. Clarke has made and will make more mistakes. If he was a perfect manager (there’s no such thing) he would likely be managing Real Madrid or Bayern Munich and not Scotland but the fact is he has got us to the euros without even needing the playoffs and we are in League A of the Nations League. Anyone who would want him sacked now because of some poor friendly results would need their head examined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted March 30 Share Posted March 30 (edited) 2 hours ago, kumnio said: Levin was shite, everyone agrees on that, Clarke has a different squad of players, and has managed to qualify for two 24 team Euros, not a 16 team Euros. It is entirely possible to criticise Clarke on his merits, without having to compare him to previous incumbents. When he does go, we won't collapse. He isn't a magician, he isn't a one man show. I put far more stock in what we do in competitve matches. Those are what get us to major tournaments and Clarke's record on that front is very good. This thread has resurfaced after friendly matches results which will count for nothing. Northern Ireland beat us the other night but much rather be heading to the Euros. Like I pointed out before we are a very good team providing a lot goes for us such as have a fully fit squad for each game, our key players are fit and in form and our best players put in performances close to their best. Plenty of those provisios have not happened in.the last few months hence we have struggled. Edited March 30 by Caledonian Craig Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the concern is that he did not use them correctly Cant see what he was doing playing the same old faces in the same positions. What could he possibly learn.

Nobody on here is saying he needs sacked (as far as I have seen) but I have seen people say it elsewhere and have heard it with my own ears at Hampden. Unless anyone on here is a football manager I’m not sure we can convict Clarke of not using the games properly. You’d need to ask the man himself what he was looking out for in these games.
