Austria V Scotland

Must win game for Scotland, I think a draw is more likely though. So we need Denmark take care of Israel to give us any chance of making the play off spot!

Formation: 5-3-1-1.

My team would be.
Gordon, SOD, Hanley, Cooper, Tierney, Robertson, Gilmour, McGregor, McGinn, Adams, Dykes.

Prediction: 1-2 (Adams & Dykes))

Never saw the game but noticed one of the red tops gave every player an 8/10. You’d think they’d mix it up for one player but no, 8 to everyone.

I never look at the red tops but 8/10 is a joke especially second half. We were under the cosh with some very direct football a lot. Poor decision making in the final third also cost us a chance at a few more goals

Steve Clarke "some people don't believe in this group but I do".

I’m not certain that’s true, most seem to say this is the best group of players we’ve had for a long time. It’s Clarke and his turgid football that people complain about.

Surely nothing to be feared from agreeing with a sensible comment? Though now that magnum and call sign have agreed with me I may need to reconsider my thoughts on the subject.

Brilliant performance las night, especially after watching it again without the nerves on Sportscene!
I thought McGregor and Gilmour were outstanding, so please with how McGregor has started this season after last year. Really taking on responsibility with his driving runs, and Gilmour beside him, they compliment each other so well!
SOD is very limited but gives his all. But I think had we had Patterson in the team last night we could have maybe got more from the game with the wide open spaces to run into!

If we had Patterson in the team he'd be edging towards more games for his country than his club

I hope we're all feeling a little more optimistic now. Clark is making headway where others have previously failed. His tactics and set-up might not be to everyone's taste, but it's working.

It would be a refreshing change to watch Scotland play attacking exciting football for 90 minutes, but we lack the players to do it and regularly come away with results.

It's plain, Clark is doing the same as he did at Killie, making us difficult to beat. But it's been an effective tactic in international football for years.

I'm pleased about the results, if not enthusiastic about the methods.
