Tartan blood Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 We have yet another quality CB to add to the pool of potential starters. Hickey was immense, but under the extreme circumstances, you have got to give the MOTM to Porteous. What a performance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

daviebee Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I think most folk were worried about what Porteous would turn up tonight. Well, he was absolutely fkin outstanding. Great performance from knackered players as well. Absolutely brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 I think Hickey is now the best player in our squad. He has to start every game. I'm not too fussy which position he plays. I think he is a complete footballer who could play in just about any position. And anybody who can't see how important Callum McGregor is to this team isn't worth listening to.

ProudScot Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 It was obvious Porteous was going to start as I said earlier and fair play to him he was excellent. Porteous and Hickey top drawer tonight, also Jack Hendry. Hendry is a top centre back. Well done Ryan Porteous. Be a few teams looking at him now I bet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ceudmilefailte Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Often talk about Scottish players that would make the England squad. Gordon would be a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Let's not forget, we were without Robertson and Gilmour, who not so long ago would have been throught indispensible guys to build a team around Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mccaughey85 Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Great result under the circumstances. Into pot 2 for qualifying could be a huge help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broath Boy Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Yes, whole team were immense, must mention Porteous, thought he brill, young lads at the back were superb, we’ve got a full team and a full strength team, magic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 What an epic performance. Considering the decimation of the squad then to go there and dig out a 0-0 is superb. Ryan Porteous take a bow - we have found another option in the centre of defence. Hickey was immense too. Again nobody can be criticised tonight. I was surprised as there were only a couple of brief spells when we were under the cosh but no more than that. For me we played the better football on the deck too. This result now shows we have real strength in depth. The rewards for this result are immense. League A, guaranteed play-off for the Euros and guaranteed Pot 2. I thought Ukraine lacked belief tonight for me. What a night for us though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hendricks Posted September 27, 2022 Share Posted September 27, 2022 Absolutely superb performance from Scotland. Brilliant from Clarke and his entire staff and squad. Tremendous achievement and gives us some really significant bonuses moving forward: 1. Nations League A which will bring massive games, and better future play off chances/seedings especially for WC 2026. 2. Pot 2 for Euro 2024 draw a week on Sunday. 2 qualify automatically from all 10 groups. 3. Guaranteed play off spot if we don't qualify automatically. On tonight given the absentees, quite a few guys who have been brought in from the cold and several guys including the outstanding Hickey (and whisper it Porteous who won't be at Hibs much longer) with little experience and the fact we were playing away from home in our 3rd high tempo match in a week, this is an outstanding result. So many positives; Hickey, Hendry, Porteous, Patterson all young players, the timeless Craig Gordon, consistently excellent McGregor, McGinn and Adams, McTominay magnificent in his correct position etc etc. Oh and England, Wales and Republic Ireland all in Nations League B. An absolutely brilliant night for Scottish football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
