The thought of David Marshall in goal against Belgium is frightening.

 

Ikechi Anya is a winger, and a very good one.

 

I'd imagine it'll be the same side who played England except McGregor & Miller obviously - I'd like Rhodes but get the feeling Strachan will go for the extremely overrated Leigh Griffiths.

TTG JIM!!!

Actually, I forgot Forrest played the England game so hopefully not.

 

Marshall (should be Gilks)

Hutton Martin Hanley Whittaker

Brown Morrison

Naismith Maloney Snodgrass

Griffiths (should be Rhodes)

 

is my prediction for the Belgium game.

Whats happened to Johnny Russell and Scott Allen ?

 

Don't follow English football too much but aren't they worth a shout.

 

Scott Allan looked absolutely fantastic from what I seen of him for the u-21s and Dundee United, he looked a genuine top prospect but after acting the bawbag about money at Tannadice he doesn't seem to have done a great deal. Think he's at Birmingham now, hope he can establish himself and push on from there. It'd seem like quite a waste of he ends up a perennial Championship-dweller.

 

Russell's scored a couple of goals already for Derby. Odd that he should be left out whilst Griffiths, who plays at a lower level, is included. Must be injured.

 

Was out with a broken leg for while, seems to have been fit from the start of the season though. I think Russell's a cracking player, quite disappointed he isn't included when some dud like Mackie is.* His time will come though, I'd imagine he'll be a regular sooner than later especially in the absence of Kenny Miller.

 

*Cue someone mentioning he plays in the EPL...so did Steven Caldwell.

Morrison is a big miss for sure, but fortunately it's in one of the positions where we have plenty of replacements, so I think we should be able to cope with the loss. Might give us the chance to play Maloney in behind the striker, where he has played so well with Wigan in the last year or so.

4 call ups for squad. Craig Bryson, Chris Burke, Kevin Thomson and Lee Wallace. Interesting that Fletcher wasn't called up. It can't be because of lack of playing time if other players are in who don't feature?

Agree with three of them, but Kevin Thomson is a joke. He was awful in the last televised Hibs game, looked a shadow of the player that got him the move to Ibrox, then Middlesbrough.
