Callum McGregor

Which is weird, considering Strachan's perma-* for Nakamura.

 

Strachan seems to have lost all sense, he watched the Euros and now thinks that ever single international footballer must be built like Paul Pogba or Ronaldo.
I am not suggesting Callum should be a regular but he is certainly a better player than some of those he has capped in his time.

 

Who he played out wide, when he was very much suited for a role in the middle of the pitch.

 

Always wanted us to try something like:

Brown Robson

Naka

McGeady JVoH Samaras
​

WGS wasn't the most adventerous though.

 

The one and only time I remember Strachan being a bit more adventurous in Europe was against Villarreal at home. Played McGeady, Nakamura and Maloney in the same side.

Brown Hartley

McGeady Nakamura Maloney

Samaras​

 

And the Old Firm cup final when he played McGeady through the middle as well.

 

It's a shame he so rarely let his creative players properly off the leash.

 

He's a handy player, a bit of a utility man in midfield and might never be a regular starter but can do a good job across 4/5 positions. Pops up with important goals too which is always a plus.

 

Shouldnt even be mentioned in the same sentence as holt or halliday, leagues aheaf of them both combined

 

You could see that after the game

 

People forget how well he done down in England aswell, was sensational in league 1 and was only a kid.

 

True yeah, christie is probably next closest then a big gap to anyone else

 

What about similar players playing in England, like Bannan and Dorrans, he's no worse than them.

 

He has been superb since he has came on.

 

Where was he the last fifteen minutes? Always looks great in patches and the drifts completely out of it.

 

Done well.

 

Thought he was our best player in the second half by a country mile.
