Clyde1998 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) The French seem to have gone with a strong side: France: Maignan, Clauss, Pavard, Konate, T Hernandez, Camavinga, Tchouameni, Griezmann, Dembele, Mbappe, Giroud. Subs: Samba, Areola, Gusto, Lukeba, Kolo Muani, Rabiot, Thuram, Todibo, Fofana, Kamara, Coman, L Hernandez Edited October 17, 2023 by Clyde1998 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clyde1998 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 I make it eight changes for us: GK - Gunn -> Kelly RB - Hickey -> Patterson CB - McKenna CB - Porteous -> Cooper CB - Hendry LB - Robertson -> Taylor DM - McGregor -> Gilmour DM - McTominay -> McLean AM - McGinn -> McTominay AM - Christie -> Ferguson ST - Dykes -> Adams Max Johnston on the bench on his first international call up. For France, I make it four changes from their 2-1 win over the Dutch: GK - Maignan RB - Clauss CB - Konate CB - L Hernandez -> Pavard LB - T Hernandez CM - Rabiot -> Camavinga CM - Tchouameni AM - Griezmann LW - Mbappe RW - Coman -> Dembele ST - Kolo Muani -> Giroud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
romanticscot Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 So if Brown doesn't get any minutes tonight, can we please use his spot for someone else? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DesiScotsman Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 Wasn’t expecting a strong a France lineup as that but then again, what do you even consider as not a strong French lineup? 😅 The strength in depth and the quality of player they have coming through their youth sides is frightening. For us, I’m looking forward to it even though it is most likely going to be a long night although would be thrilled if we got a result against the best international side in Europe. A big chance for some of these players to really stake a claim and give Steve Clarke a few things to think about going forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m surprised how he got into the squad ahead of some like Ryan Hardie who’s been scoring goals for Plymouth in the championship and is the top goalscoring Scottish player in that league just now. I don’t know if Jacob Brown has even kicked a ball for Luton yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whereas we are missing, arguably, 4 out of our 5 best players - Robbo, Tierney, McGinn, Hickey. (McTominay being the 5th.) Then we'd normarily have McGregor, Christie and Gunn playing as well. I hope we don't regret these changes, or regret booking this friendly in the first place. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exile Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 (edited) I thought the game was hardly underway and just had a peek at Twitter and saw a "Yesss Scotland!!!" and I just assumed it was a sort of "C'mon Scotland" shout, but no! 😅 Edited October 17, 2023 by exile Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clyde1998 Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 It was fun while it lasted. 🙃 Not the greatest defending, but can't expect too much with us missing three or four of our usual back five, plus the keeper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DesiScotsman Posted October 17, 2023 Share Posted October 17, 2023 French starting to pick up the tempo. Mbappe is frightening when he has the ball. Patterson needs a hand. Can’t afford to leave him 1v1 against Mbappe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
