    Since a lot of people are going on about coefficient points, here is current ranking:

    https://kassiesa.net/uefa/data/method5/crank2020.html

    Theoretically, Cyprus, Greece, Sweden and Switzerland still have mathematical chances of passing Scotland. In practice, for the later two would be practically impossible. Scotland is almost tied with Cyprus in the 15th place (precisely the position that gives two CL places) but their only remaining team is playing Sevilla today, and also is already qualified. About Greece, they are 0,775 point behind, which, since their points are divided by 5, means they would need two more victories than the sum of what we and Sevco get from now on.

    Don't mind in a game like this to be fair and it's in his more natural position..

    Doesn't have the pace for the wings and isn't a striker as we know..

    He isn't good enough for us but at least we get to see him in a role he should suit more..

    This is a fantastic game to test players. No pressure, good opposition that will play for real. That is why I am quite sad about Shved not being in, surely there is absolutely no point of having Forrest in the bench.

    What's the point in risking Jullien get Paul the Tim in at CB

    Cluj front 3 tonight should be a handful for your makeshift defence.

    Jullien strikes me as a player who needs games to keep him performing at a high level. He was rested against Hamilton so it’s Ajer’s chance to get rested tonight.

    We clearly need another CB for cover.

    I suppose it exposes the fact we have only 3 fit players for the CB position at the moment. Bigger transfer priority than CF.

    At one point he looked * on Sunday.
    I'd rather play Gordon at centre back than risk him.

    Leone would prefer 11 CBs on the pitch though so no surprise he prioritises that position.

    Jullien starting is pretty baffling.

    Happy with the team otherwise.

    No.

    The only cb available would be McInroy from the B list but someone here said he is injured
