John_B81 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 <p>Anyone who thinks playing 2 centre forwards automatically makes a team more attacking, doesn't understand football tactics very well. </p> Correct. Spain showed in Euro 2012 that they can make a no-striker formation be an attacking one. (Yes they've got the players for it before anyone says it).

Jagtag Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) Correct. Spain showed in Euro 2012 that they can make a no-striker formation be an attacking one. (Yes they've got the players for it before anyone says it). Yeah but the stole that from the Levein masterplan.

Rab The Crab Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Goodwillie was never the quickest.Is he getting back to the form he showed at United? If so he may be an option? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was outstanding last week at Tynecastle. He needs about 20 games like that before he should be considered for Scotland though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robroysboy Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 (edited) McCormack easily man of the match. Very good performance all round. Strikers score goals and win games, think strachan needs to consider all on form strikers as Flecther ( steven)has done he-haw this campaign.

Great stuff from McCormack tonight, but let's not kid ourselves that he could replace Fletcher. He won't and he can't. Two totally different players stylistically.

kps022000 Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Definitely deseverves a place in the squad. Was excellent tonight but Fredericks was MOTM for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ParisInAKilt Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Fletcher was so ineffective in the last 2 games I think we need to explore all available options. Including McCormack. Although I can't see any major changes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kumnio Posted September 25, 2015 Share Posted September 25, 2015 Agree to an extent, but McCormack is simply not international material up top. Sorry, just my opinion. I have never been a big fan of McCormack, but always thought he was a decent squad player, however Fletcher isnt up to it either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An asset as a squad player for sure, no contest and rightly so. But not an option as a lone striker (up top). Naismith would be better in that position, and then only if we absolutely have to.

Fletcher is absolute gash and should not be included Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flynnyboy Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Fletcher is a fantastic forward. Granted he is going through a rough patch of form but he is by far and away the best we have up top, in form, and even off form is still better than our other options. His link up is essential to how we play. To say he is gash is quite simply indicative of someone who does not understand football. I await the goals to games ratio.

JECK Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 I'd agree he is or was a fantastic forward however he has never been the same player since his injuries in my opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kmcca5 Posted September 26, 2015 Author Share Posted September 26, 2015 Looking at Jordan Rhoads and Ross McCormack scoring records it's mental we don't have them in far more squads. Two proven goal scorers and not to use them is criminal. Hope they both get call ups to the squad ta least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
