I would imagine Steven Fletcher will play most of the match to get game time.

Him and Robertson missed training so I don't think he will.

I'd experiment a little bit -

Marshall

Hutton...Greer...Berra...Whittaker

McArthur...Morrison

Forrest...Adam...Naismith

Griffiths

This is how I see us starting:-

1. David Marshall (Cardiff C.) 18th Cap
2. Alan Hutton (Aston Villa) 45th Cap
3. Steven Whittaker (Norwich C.) 30th Cap
4. Matt Ritchie (Bournemouth) 3rd Cap
5. Christophe Berra (Ipswich T.) 30th Cap 3 Goals
6. Russell Martin (Norwich C.) 19th Cap
7. James Morrison (WBA) 38th Cap 3 Goals
8. Scott Brown (Celtic) (Capt.) 44th Cap 4 Goals
9. Leigh Griffiths (Celtic) 5th Cap
10. Steven Naismith (Everton) 37th Cap 5 Goals
11. Ikechi Anya (Watford) 14th Cap 2 Goals

I definitely want to see Adam get some time playing in Naismith's role behind the striker. He's been outstanding for Stoke playing there.

Is anybody else a bit meh about this game? I don't understand why we are playing a team essentially as weak as Gibraltar when we have an important game coming up.

I don't think I'll bother listening to it, assuming it's on the radio.

it's becasue a number of of the squard havn't played in 3 or 4 weeks due the Championship season finishing on the 2nd May, Anya, Marshall and Ritchie for a start. Republic play England on Sunday.

Didn't they draw 1-1 with Northern Ireland last Sunday night?

If so, they can't be that bad.

Anya at RB, strange one but he's played full back for Watford as far as I know so might be worth a stab. Be surprised if he goes with the wee man vs Ireland.

I might have the formation wrong; it's a best guess.

It's an attacking team with pace.
