What did George Burley learn from last night's Scotlands performance against Northern Ireland? ?

Question

that we didnt know already.

Answer 1

already i see people are saying its not too bad as we were missing some big players, but who exactly were we missing?

Fergusons only had about 2 good games in a scotland shirt, and If everyone is saying Caldwell is of a higher ability than Davie Weir then i think we should have them sectioned.

Robson has only recently came into the picture so hes not a usual starter, and lads like Adam and Burke are pish,

SO WHO WAS THE MISSING BIG PLAYERS???thats all im hearing from some users here, and Burley.

just excuses!!

same old c**p, why are we playing Miller upfront with McFadden? Faddy is a creator and Miller is the biggest chance squanderer in our domestic game, its really pathetic.

Our midfield is fine with fletcher and brown, mabye move fletcher to the right and have Thompson in the middle with Brown, Faddy on the Left with Boyd upfront partnering O'Connor, or even have Maloney on the left with Faddy up with Boyd..

its really no rocket science, and i think Burley will be another Vogts

really not impressed with any of his games so far

Boyd to start alongside Steven Fletcher of Hibs, mabye even O'Connor,Darren  Fletcher on the right, Brown and Thompson in the Middle, left mid is where we struggle, however McFadden slots in perfectly as would maloney

defence is clear, we are missing Hutton so whittaker or even Greame Murty, McManus and a combi of either wier, caldwell, Berra or even Braodfoot with Whittaker, Gordon as keeper.

Full strength squad, almost identical to what was at his disposal last night. No Excuses

Answer 2

McFadden is definitely too greedy

Answer 3

He learnt that he is not gonna drag us out of the qualifiers and into the world cup

Answer 4

that Miller is under achieving for Scotland now...he usually plays well for them..

that they are missing the big boys..Ferguson etc

that they need to do a little more to qualify?

Answer 5

That Faddy still does not pass the ball.

That northern Ireland are cheating we cuunts.

That we completely controlled the game.

We need to mix up our strikers a bit.

The ref was the worst ref i have ever seen..no wait i take that back, he is the worst forgin ref i have ever seen.

That there is still bigots amongst the Scotland support.

Answer 6

Never seen all of it as I thought it was very boring. Don't think he would have taken a great deal out of it.

Answer 7

hes the scotland manager right?

Answer 8

That Alexander is a 'decent' full back but a useless wing back (Get well soon Alan Hutton)

Caldwell is no big loss.

Thomson can make the step up to International class.

We have 2 world class keepers but Gordon is No 1.

We need Faddy in the team cause he is the one guy who can do the unthinkable and change a game in a matter of seconds.

Scotland can't win a Friendly at Hampden.

Answer 9

Dont play Scott Brown on the right or Fletcher at all

Answer 10

we did'nt underperform so thats positive

we did'nt concede so thats positive

we created the best chances so thats positive

we blooded a couple of debutants and they did'nt disapoint so thats positive

we gave away a penalty that was negative

we saved the penalty so thats a positive

after that we had chances to score so thats positve

Answer 11

he had quite a few first choices missing, hopefully they will be fit for the game in 2 weeks, i think he needs to look at his strike force..i know miller and mcfadden are our top goalscoreers but last night they just didn't click at all, mcgregor had agood game..so with him and gordon at least the goalies are ok...i thought kevin thompson and scott brown played not too bad in an otherwise forgetable night..onwards and upwards...

Answer 12

probably that he should play boyd up front hope you realise how hard that was to say???
