And when they score after a minute, you question yourself because you think, OK, we might get a chance or two, but they're going to get a few.
how do we win this game now and I think that'll be the worry last night after 70 seconds Morocco then dominated large parts of the game second half Scotland came out and you think oh that looks a bit more like a Scotland performance there was maybe a few more half chances but
I just don't get the substitutions as well.
We've got Shankland who's got 25 goals this season not getting off the bench.
Like, Dock for me has to start.
I said previously that we can't hang our hopes on him but we can...
lift her head up, kick the ball in the corner and hope he chases it and gets it, because when he does that and he then gets a hold of the ball, which is very simple to do, he's 1v1, he's electric.
He might not give you everything defensively, but he can stand in a position where he can help the team.
I just think that was where he got it wrong last night, Steve Clarke.
And I think there's a pattern, because when there's a big decision to be made, do we attack, do we defend, do we play a defender, do we play an attacker?
we know what Steve Clarke's going to do.
He's always going to err on the side of caution.
if you're defending for your life Lyndon Dykes is perfect because set pieces he'll win a lot of front post headers or even in the middle he could probably be the target that clears everything up if your back's against the wall and you're two banks of four with maybe a midfield on front coming back to make it a five Lyndon Dykes can stay a little bit higher so that when you get the ball you can just put it in a corner and he can chase or if you're playing two up front and your back's against the wall 4-4-2 and you launch it up to him he'll maybe win the flick on for the other striker
But the time he brought him on, and I like Lyndon Diggs, I think he's been a great servant for Scotland.
He's got 53 caps and he's played in major tournaments for us.
But we're chasing a goal and the guy with the most goals is sitting on the bench.
Come on now.
That's bizarre for me, Hugh.
I think Shanklin's got that little bit in the box where Shea Adams...
Runs the channels better probably in terms of a one up front stretching them is a better option in Shankland.
