ThistleWhistle Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Draw there is a decent result given players missing- could have won it if tighter at the back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
exile Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Big goal for morale, to keep the confidence we can come back in a tricky away game Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted November 16, 2023 Author Share Posted November 16, 2023 Sloppy defending cost us and paying them too much respect too. We needed the mentality that they were shite and take the game by the scruff of the neck. A draw was well-deserved and that despite a rank rotten referee.

vanderark14 Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 I'll take it. A win would've been good but the job is done. Shankland getting a goal, mctom scoring again and ferguson getting game time the positives. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We went there with several key players out and got a draw where, in the past, full strength Scotland sides have gone there and lost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BryanBlessed Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Only been getting brief clips on l'équipe and couldn't find a stream. I was quite surprised he put on Shankland so late as I didn't think he'd have time to make much of an impact but I was wrong. As far as I'm concerned, all the spots up front should be up for grabs. Adams hasn't had a good game in ages and Dykes isn't a natural striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe the lesson is that we really lack a world class forward like Haaland or K...vili (can't spell it). And..we must play at a high tempo.

exile Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 65% possession isn't bad for a tricky away game with a depleted team. 16 shots too, 5 on target, 2 goals. One point finally in Georgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BryanBlessed Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 We need to start preparing for at least one of Hickey/Robertson/Tierney being out of the Euros. Probably Tierney. If we go to the Euros without all three, we're out in the group stage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbo cop Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Frustrating as we could have won that, food for thought though v Norway with Shankland scoring and Ferguson looked good. Probably still start with Dykes but not too sure about Christie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orraloon Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Decent result. Georgia were the better team for the first hour, then we totally dominated (for the second hour 😉😂). McGregor was great in that 2nd half. We just couldn't get going in that first half. The ball just seemed to bounce off our players. Not sure what happened to our ball control there? It's been so much better recently. Shankland has to be an option up front. McLean showed why he is in the squad. I think he has sealed his place in the squad for Germany.

Amazing really, we have Robertson, Tierney and Hickey but end up praising Kenny McLean for playing left back. Taylor did not have a good night.

slasher Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Some of our ‘depth’ would appear to be a myth based on that. Wouldn’t want to be too hard on any of them though as we kept at it and deserved the point in the end. I thought we got sucked into their nonsense at times but the officials were weak. The challenge on McTominay should have been VAR’d and upgraded to a red! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EddardStark Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 In the context of squad strength and how hard an away game this is for us normally I think Clarke should be happy with this. Not seen the second half but I think its progress. Hopefully we can sign off with a win against Norway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

er yir macaroon Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Two games in a row McLean has been our best player. He gives good balance on the left and is a good all rounder. Patterson was great going forward, and I’ve no fears about him especially with three at the back.He was at fault for second goal but that can be coached out of him. Shankland should start on Sunday. A bit like Griffiths, he’s done the hard work and now has a physique suitable for top level football. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Toepoke Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Shiter of a game, but pleased to finally take something from Tbilisi. Would've been raging if we still needed a win to stay above Spain though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tierney has twiglets for legs so I wouldn’t be surprised if he missed out but the other 2 should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
COLT NY Posted November 16, 2023 Share Posted November 16, 2023 Agree that Shankland should start on Sunday. I'd have had him on sooner today as Dykes was off it from the start. Not the result I was hoping for. It would have been nice to get this monkey off our back, especially when other teams of our level all seem to be able to grind out results in Tblisi. Anyway, que sera sera. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
