giblet Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Naismith is rank, and it wouldn't bother me if he played for Scotland again, and as for Anya , he doesn't do much Harsh on Naismith, think its down just simply not being match sharp. Shouldnt have been near the team tonight. As someone else said, too many players picked who are out of form. McArthur, Darren Fletcher both playing every week currently and would have done better job in middle of park. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 The way I see it is that we can't adopt an attacking style of play to any great degree. We built the foundations with Strachan having us play a counter-attacking style of game. It works fine enough when playing a team actively seeking goals. However, Georgia are a counter-attacking side themselves so sit in and we just had no real motive or plan to counter that. They cancelled us out and as counter-attack is the style they have played for years they deployed it to a better degree whilst we were evidently without a plan. That needs addressed.

SMcoolJ Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I think the above touches on the issue. We need to select guys who are match fit and playing every week. Naismith, Mulgrew, Hutton all good players but well off the pace tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fraz65 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Fecking utterly pathetic losing to this lot, ranked 147 in the world, below Luxembourg, St Lucia, Bermuda, Kuwait, Philippines, Faroes, St Kitts etc etc, embarrassing :-) The football world rankings are a joke and always have been. It was never going to be an easy game tonight, particularly looking at the club sides the Georgia squad were picked from and the performance of Scottish clubs in Europe. I would have been happy with a point before the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fringo Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Really poor tonight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redstevie007 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Certainly looked very average when we played them at Hampden, they have gone forward, we've gone backwards. Strachan will have his work cut out turning it around for Monday night. Ibrox. Apologies for the pedantry but I'm in no mood for ####witery.

Caledonian Craig Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 It had sod all to do with right/wrong players on the pitch to me. We lacked any sort of attacking game plan and sat too deep. Smacks of poor tactics - or a lack of them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jock strap Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 I could use a few more words for the passing tonight but none of them would really be appropriate !

weekevie04 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 Watched the first half of Gib-Eire. They're 1-0 up and stuttering, spluttering to victory. Again! Just shows what a up we made tonight by losing in Georgia. Doesn't matter, can't be relying on Gibraltar for a favour. Nation of bottle merchants. Still biling.

jock strap Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) I'm pure raging ! Getting angrier by the minute, especially flicking between both Germany/Poland and Gibraltar/RoI matches. We really had a chance and a win tonight would have gave us a massive lift for the next 3 games. The belief has been severely battered because of the misery gained from a truly woeful performance.

teale27 Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 When I heard the team I thought fair enough all be it a bit too attack minded. Would have had Whittaker, mcarthur and maybe Gordon in instead of Robertson Morrison and Marshall. Then the game started and no matter the heat, pitch, opposition we should have been able to create chances and have a few shots......very very poor and strachan got his substitutions wrong big time. Not sure how Hanley Forrest and griffiths were going to get us a goal. Hutton has played his best for us when not playing at villa but Whittaker and mcarthur have both started the season well in the premiership so should have started. Do worry that WGS has started believing his own hype a bit and trying to be too clever. The formation at home to gibralter, dropping Anya in Dublin and line up and subs tonight. Having said that one bad result doesn't end the campaign.....a defeat on Monday would....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boynze Posted September 4, 2015 Share Posted September 4, 2015 (edited) Abject performance all round, pedestrian like, no movement, no pace, no crossing of any quality, non technical quality ( they were superior technically) and got what we deserved. Unlikely to finish in the top three now. Our players are simply not good enough, just look at where they play and our domestic results in Europe. We are miles behind most of Europe and technically must be one of the poorest sides around. Like Strachan and not in any way calling for his head, but he has to look at himself for recent results, and possibly more importantly performances.

Like Strachan and not in any way calling for his head, but he has to look at himself for recent results, and possibly more importantly performances. Strachan needs to start picking more players who are actually on form instead of his favourites. In hindsight the decision to pick certain players who lack game time has bitten us in the arse.our domestic results in europe have nothing to do with it. How do you explain how Northern Ireland and Wales are on the verge of qualification? Even the republic gave been handed a lifeline by us and their domestic leagues are worse than ours. It's our attitude that costs us, we always play down the significance of these matches to take the pressure of players apparently, well if they can't deal with pressure they don't deserve to be there. The other thing that pisseses me offs by playing down the significance of these matches makes some believe that it's ok to draw over the and that a win is not essential, I truly believed strachan had got rid of this attitude but he obviously hasn't. We will probably put In a massive performance on Monday but still lose, If there is a good performance on Monday or by some miracle a result to go with the performance, I will still be raging because the performance and result was needed last night.
