Scotland v Croatia friendly |
|
Will be a good game. Scotland will hopefully put out a strong team since its our only friendly this whole year.
|

 |
|
Hopefully Gary Caldwell plays and picks up a knock. Maybe then, juuuusssssst maybe, Strachan will drop him
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Haha He wont get in the squad.
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Is Murts in the squad?
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
In papers said he has been called up but cant find a squad list so not sure if a list has been named yet
|
||||||||

|

He was in Burley's training squad.

a real shame that mcfadden, ferguson,daily,mculloch hve pulled out.
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|

ye , and robson has pulled out aswell , so its most certinaly going to be a weaker midfield , and upfront will be weaker aswell without mcfadden , but rumour has it that george burley is going to start steven fletcher on his 21st birthday ... so with all the withdrawls this would be my team....
.....gordon..... .....hutton..... ...mcmanus.... ......berra.... ....alexander.... ....d.fletcher??... ... hartley... ....brown... ...maloney... ....s.fletcher.... ...boyd.... defence is ok , same as usual exept i would put berra in for caldwell , midfield is alot weaker , i hope burley playes the midfield i choose for the competitive side , that would be brilliant , i know maloney is down as a striker in the squad lists , but he is a better middie IMO upfront were missing mcfadden who would take over boyds place.. the team for competitive games would be ....gordon..... .....hutton..... ...mcmanus.... ......berra.... ....alexander.... ....robson... ...ferguson... ....brown... ...maloney... ....s.fletcher.... ...mcfadden.... thats the best scotland team that any manager could pick IMO |

I can see Scotland winning this without Ferguson, Robson or Christian 'bead-rattler' Dailly. Still a pretty decetn lineup deano has listed
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Cmon Croatia, be brave and beat them Scots.

Croatia
Pletikosa Corluka, R. Kovac, Simunic, Pranjic N. Kovac Srna, Modric, Kranjcar Olic, Petric Niko Kovac fairly defensive role which is great as it allows Corluka and Pranjic to bomb forward, while still staying covered in defense. We scored yet? |
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
0-1 Croatia, Niko Kranjcar scores.
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Another long shot. Another possible keeper error, but this went into the roof. No stopping that.
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
1-1. Miller.
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Amount of fouls Scotland giving away outside thier own box says it all.
Olic almost puts it away. Should be a matter of time now, Klasnic and Budan on. |
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Dirty dirty Scots, that was almost like the tackle on Eduardo by Naysmith.
|
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Beautiful ball in and somehow 3 players manage to miss it.
 |
||||||||
|
|||||||||
|
|
Another one, but Budan cant put it away.
