Well this World Cup group fixture becomes another "must win" target for Steve Clarke and the guys. We must ensure that 4 pts gap in second place is maintained! Does he rest players v this level of opposition and bring in fresher ones? I'm not sure TBH! I tend to view this scenario as one to win the game as early as poss with our strongest side and then bring on subs who are comfortable playing in a winning position. There is no doubt Grant Hanley will return to the CB position. So that will free up McTominay to play in an adapted midfield set up. IMO this is still gonna be a challenging fixture v a stuffy side that has just been thrashed by Denmark. IMO the win is more important than the number of goals we score although it would be nice to win it well. As commented in one of my previous threads - NO COMPLACENCY PLEASE!! C'mon Scotland!
On a separate note, I'm perusing the unseeded international sides that Scotland will possibly face at Hampden Park in the play-off semi-finals. They are:- Czechoslovakia, Ukraine, Norway, N Macedonia, Wales, Austria. I don't wanna be drawn v the Czechs or Wales TBH!! Anyway, we've gotta deal with one game at a time before we seriously consider this play-off scenario.
