Clyde1998 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Too easy again down the left. Not sure what Clark is doing with that cross: never going to get anywhere near it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Third Lanark Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Shit. For the first time I criticise Clarke: no Shankland, Ferguson not starting. Got to cure this Scottish mentality of celebrating before we win a game. Start slowly and you are always on a hiding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThistleWhistle Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Essentially it's a glorified friendly but this performance poses a lot of questions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He flapped at it all right though. Why give Shankland 3 minutes?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Taylor not good enough but he's only playing because he's our 4th choice. We are desperately missing Tierney. McLean isn't a starter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Third Lanark Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 See if we had been in Norway's position, we would have chucked it well before the end; what did they have to play for? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be arsed searching but I'm sure we beat Croatia and someone else when it was a dead rubber. Anyway, I don't think it really matters. We go to Germany with one loss in qualifying I trust Clarke because he is delivering Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Certainly we should be playing five at the back; Porteous should be put back into the team. I don't think Taylor should be starting; we do need to see Doig to gauge what level he's at relatively. McLean shouldn't be starting either. Certainly need Gunn back. I understand we were treating it as an opportunity to test so things out, but we need to get some momentum back ahead of the Euros.

BryanBlessed Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Could have seen this coming. Souness said that when he played for Liverpool, they won the league with a few games left and then lost all their remaining games. It would have been nice to end with a win but it doesn't matter in the end. It's clear that Taylor and Clark can't cut it at this level but we hope they won't be needed at the Euros. Patterson hasn't yet become the player we all hoped he would and there is now no debate about who's better between him and Hickey. Amazed he didn't start Ferguson and bring on Shankland instead of Dykes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scot1 Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Taylor should’ve been off at half time and Doig given a chance. Every goal came down that left hand side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The good thing is that there are still seven months between now and then. I predict that will be Zander Clark's last ever appearance for Scotland or in the squad. Taylor was only there out of necessity. Dare I say it, but isn't there a better deputy to Hickey than Patterson? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

duncan II Posted November 19, 2023 Share Posted November 19, 2023 Clarke was forced into a couple of changes. He's also in the position of using this game to try a couple of things that are probably not first choice options. What a great position to have been in, especially given the lack of friendly options there will be. And it was a draw, not a defeat. Under the various circumstances, I'm happy. I think people are overreacting a bit. 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
