Bzzzz Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Fletcher? Why? Why so many putting an out of form misfiring player who isn't getting picked for his club in instead of an inform almost free scoring Griffiths? Dinnae like Griffiths one bit but as a player ye cannae deny he's bang in form... As for the keeper,I'd say Craigie's almost back to his best and there's no better than him IMO. Instant optimism points seeing "1. Gordon" on the teamsheet... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossman4 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I think it's more to do with the type of game it could be and Strachan going with what's served him well so far. I'd be worried about Griffiths getting issolated if up top on his own. Griffiths will play some part in the game I think though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bzzzz Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Naismith is the perfect link player for a lone striker. Hope WGS goes with Griffiths,sick to death of Fletcher misfiring, trying to be too clever and missing decent chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossman4 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I'd agree with you to be honest. I think we have the players in Naismith, Maloney and Anya that can get us forward qucikly to support Griffiths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bzzzz Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Cannae fkin wait... WGSs comments in midweek on the changes since last time have just filled me with ridiculous confidence.think we'll get 3 pts the day Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bossman4 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Confident as well. I think he's learned his lesson from the last two games not to mess about with a formula that had worked well in the first 4 games. Back to basics from a year ago and we'll win this tonight. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bannannan Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 No reason for Robertson not starting imo,Hutton and Whittaker are more than liable to make just as many defensive mistakes as he is,and he's miles better going forward.

runningtings Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 its been a long time since Hutton was the marauding fullback, he doesn't seem to have the pace any more... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LewisEDI Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 wish they would hurry up and name the team, bring back levein i say, he always unveiled the team the night before (still have no idea why he thought it was a good idea letting the opposing team know the lineup 24hrs in advance, mind you, its levein we're talking about) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Caledonian Craig Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Robertson and Anya just don't function well at all together on the left flank. Both are attack-minded and V Georgia earlier in this campaign they were mirroring each other and we were exposed on the left. It will be one attacking and one holding full-back this evening. Banging goals in for Celtic (Griffiths) is miles away from Banging them in for Scotland which he is yet to do. The reason Fletcher is in so many people'still side is that he links play up well unlike Griffiths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't wait. That right there is the reason Griffiths won't start. Fletcher/Naismith is the tried and tested partnership. Hardly free-scoring but since the Germany game we've won 3 and drawn 2 in the group so they've done their part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember thinking that during the first Georgia game at Ibrox. They seemed to be wanting to fill the same spaces all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anya was barely in the game from what i can remember. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well Fletcher (apart from the obvious 'fish in a barrel' game) for me is far from reliable, LG just seems to have that touch and confidence at the moment. WGS will probably use both but I hope LG starts. (Of course everything I say the opposite happens so Fletcher will probably start and get a hat-trick! Lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
