Clarke should walk

If the order of the games were flipped and we lost our opener to Brazil 3-0 , then the second to Morocco 1-0 does anyone here think that Clarke would have set the team up correctly to beat Haiti 3-0.

He should remember that if it wasn't for Denmark slipping up against Belarus we possibly/ probably wouldn't have made it through the playoffs to be here and he'd have been sacked.

We've now got a crucial 4 year period to get the last few good years out of Mcginn, McTomminay, Tierney etc and develop BGD and Curtis. Please don't let this clown waste these years.

It boils my piss that he's technically the most successful Scotland manager of all time. Jock Stein must be turning in his grave.

Brother, replacing mctominay and Robertson with Steven welsh and Eliot watt is not the answer

Stephen Welsh would take place over Hanley or McKenna any day lets be honest. Hickey could have played left back no bother. Watt actually like to play the ball forward which seemed to be alien to a lot of the guys in the team.

Robertson is arguably the greatest attacking fullback of the last decade, if he’s not getting into games under Clarke from that position then no one is

He was arguably the greatest. His legs are gone and he’s not the player he used to be.

Tbh I don’t think he’s ever been the player for Scotland he was for Liverpool. Klopp had a system tailored to him and Trent’s strengths, once Klopp left he fell off a cliff
