Madness.

The fact that a player in the Scottish Championship has been picked over him is just embarrassing. As is the fact that Kenny McLean is in the squad ahead of him.

One of the form players in the best team in the country by a zillion miles. Technically better than any other Scotland midfielder with the possible exception of Armstrong.

It should be a midfield three of Armstrong, Broony and McGregor starting.

Perfect timing for a MOTM performance on Saturday then. Hope WGS is in the studio to witness it.

Agree 100%.

I thought the best way to approach the game would be to have the celtic midfield 3 with forrest on one wing, Griffiths up front and a.n.other on the other wing (anya maybe). KT at right back and Robertson at Lb.

Strachan's an idiot who clearly doesn't even watch the domestic league of the country he is managing.

Inexplicable decision.

The kind of thing an international manager does when he knows his time is up.

Even worse... there are four goalkeepers in the squad. :lol:

And one of them is Jack Hamilton, who can't even get a regular game at Hearts.

Hearts' reserve goalie is in the squad before the on-form midfielder in the country.

Strachan is an arsehole.

McGregor should be considered hard done by for not getting a call up. An inexcusable decision by Strachan. He is in better form than McGinn and McLean put together.

That's pretty amazing. :lol:

No matter what McGinn might be in future, in the here and now McGregor is operating at a much higher level. Shinnie is also to be honest.

Not that this is a Scotland thread but, as for the rest, Mark Reynolds? :lol: Is Mulgrew injured again?

Mulgrew is in the squad. Reynolds being picked is more of an indictment of the dearth of talent that we have in the centre of defence.

The BBC have obviously ballsed this up then. There is no mention of Mulgrew in this, although I wouldn't rule out them making the error.

Don't know what WGS is playing at here. This country is not exactly awash with talented footballers. The boy has been outstanding recently and fully deserved to be called up.

Jeezo, and Oliver Burke dropped as well. Probably the most exciting player we have, playing in one of the top four leagues - nah not good enough.

It's the Jack Harper, Ryan Gauld, Jordan Rhodes thing… It's like they don't want the team to succeed. "Oh, we've got someone in form and who could actually be a prospect? Let's not give him game time, let's play some 35-year-old fud who has never done anything before."

Its a preliminary squad that 6 players will get cut from. One being a GK.
