Tbh, I'd honestly have thought Clarke would have been fairer but evidently not. Unless he's just scared to make wholesale changes given it's his first squad. There's no way McLean, who has only played about 20 times this season at Norwich or Shinnie, who is just an athlete, are better footballers than Ryan Jack.

Jelavic191 2,023 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 There’s a real lack of quality in that squad. Majority of it made up of mid-table Scottish Premiership teams. Scotland should be aiming to be in a group of country’s just under your big nations in order to qualify for things alongside the likes of Austria, Serbia etc but they all have players playing in the biggest leagues across Europe.

He did and out of the 2 I mentioned he's probably the one I'd be less pissed about getting in ahead of Jack, though I still think Jack is better. After Shinnie's game v Kazakhstan I'm astonished he has retained his place in the squad - especially given how well Jack has played for us since that game.

It's an awful squad with awful options up top. McBurnie scored 22 goals in the Championship and isn't in the squad The key differences between Scotland and those other countries is our coaching is archaic, our league structure is archaic and our players don't go abroad at a young age. Read a thing recently that one of the reasons why Croatia do so well is they actively encourage young players to move into other leagues at a young age so they can develop quicker Reformation Bear, The Specky Liar , Hutton2008 and 3 others like this Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TartanTeddy 691 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 I think Jack will be in future squads, likewise McCrorie. From a club perspective probably good that our players get a decent break given how quickly the Europa games will come around. But you would hope that we would see greater International representation by a lot of the squad next year - good for players experience and also increases a players value. I see a few on ( so obsessed they sought out this thread) with 'the fuck Scotland' stuff - shame they don't know the history of our club and the pride players took and will take in representing their country.

The Specky Liar 45,328 Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 He should be in ahead of Shinnie and Mctominay is only in because of a reputation he has from a year/18 months ago Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless he was playing GK after a freak incident, no matter where he was playing that night he should never have been seen in a Scotland shirt again. Rewarding failure.
