Thread: Lithuania v Scotland

We need to win the next two games to have any chance.

My team would be...

...............................McGregor

Hutton..................Berra.......McManus....... ..Whittaker

...............................Hartley

.................Brown.....Fletcher....Robson

.............................McFadden

................................Miller

Subs

Gilks
Weir
McEveley
Dorrans
Morrison
Adam
Naismith

I know McCulloch and Weir will start though.

IF we don't take three pts tomorrow and tuesday night then we might aswell not show up for the rest of the group games.

McGregor
Hutton - Berra - Weir - Whittaker
Fletcher - Hartley - Robson
Brown - McFadden
Miller

"One of the important things is to pick players in form," he said.

"Kenny Miller would probably have played anyway, but he will play tomorrow. It's good to know he's in form."
=====
"Davie Weir is probably the best centre-back we have got at this time," said Levein.

"He is playing week in, week out at the highest level and playing to such a standard that this type of football is something he can cope with easily."
====
"We've added Jay McEveley and Garry O'Connor just to bolster things more than anything else, just in case anyone gets an injury in training," explained Levein, who is planning on making sweeping changes to the side that lost 3-0 in a friendly with Sweden last month.

"I'm just about there, apart from maybe one position. I plan to name the team after training on Thursday evening.

"There could be six, seven, eight changes between the Sweden game and this game, with guys coming back in and me adding a couple as well."

Hope the huns get season long injuries

Would probably go for;

Grybauskas

Stankevicius Klimavicius Skerla Kijanskas

Ivaskevicius Panka Mikoliunas Cesnauskis

Velicka Danilevicius

Should be an easy win, Scotland havnt looked good since... erm....

Hope Lithuania Hertz get blown up. Shower of cunts.

Berra, McManus, Whittaker, Hartley, Robson, Weir, McCulloch, McEveley, Adam, Naismith Scotland are absolute pish probably scrape a draw off Lithuania and scrape a win against the other mob!

We'll gub Lichtenstein. They're a part-time team. We might struggle tomorrow though.

I'm hoping for Hun injuries!

A broken face for Miller would be nice

If it were anybody bar Lichtenstein next on Tuesday I'd disagree. Forrest should get a call-up for that one.

Confirmed team.

No Faddy?

Weak links - whittaker and naismith. I'd normally say mcculoch too but he's a hatchet man and tbh i dont mind that sort of player for scotland.

Naismith has started the season pretty well from what I've seen so I'm not too bothered about this move by Levein. As for Whittaker, I think he's more capable than McEveley and Broadfoot.

McFadden doesn't fit into the away game quite the same and could be a useful impact sub.

Levein's obviously concerned about their threat from set plays and has brought in McCulloch instead of Hartley for this reason.

Robson's the one I'm not sure about although I do like him. I just don't know if he'll create enough from the left. Handy for corners and free kicks though.

Agree about Robbo mate, he's not got the pace to do any damage going down the wing but i can't fault his commitment and desire and i think he could do a job, afterall, he is a hunskelper!

totally forgot about hartley tbh and now you mention him i think i'd rather have him in place of hatchetman - he's got more passion and a much better passing ability even though he may be lacking a bit of pace.

As for naismith - i'll give you that one, he's better than clubfoot

This game being a must win tonight is making me a bit nervous to say the least. It would be typical if Miller mist a couple of sitter tonight after the form he's been on.

Aye starting to get a wee bit excited about it too mate - hopefully we can get the result and the lads can gain a bit of confidence from it and then go on to hump Lichtenstein next week.

And Miller doesn't get called Misser for nothing mate!

Miller ain't scored for us since Burley's first game but based on his early season form he pretty much has to be there.

Fingers crossed he can do the business tonight

Looking forward to it now

That's the beers in the fridge. Come on Scotland!!

time is KO?

7:15

Come on the Scots. Get into this mob!!
