Nicky Devlin is fucking ace. Better than that Ralston pish. 

Interested to see Irving. Always thought Lindsay was a decent defender, but likely not international class, be interesting to see how he's matured. 

No place for Keskinen again, which is disappointing.

We were heavily linked with Lindsay back in his Partick days.

I like Devlin and has been a decent acquisition for us and rarely lets us down. I just don't see him being up to international level, but will delighted to be proved wrong.

Consi did fine in his Scotland appearances so hopefully Devlin can do similar if he gets on the pitch.

Devlin will stroll it. Probably get a couple of goals.

Edit: he's not even the first Devlin at the Dons to be called up under Clarke, so there's no pressure.

I should have said, too, that Clarke has been great for picking players playing in Scotland. There's no way on earth Strachan would be picking players like Devlin and Considine. I think it gives such a good account of the league to see players that are making the step up. If our goalie is good enough for Bulgaria then there's no reason we shouldn't have players from our team and the wider SPFL in the team. With Ralston only starting one game in the league cup, not featuring in the league since August, Devlin should be starting.

That back heel on its own was worthy of a call up. Fantastic. The Premiership lads can provide the spine of the team, the Dons do the width. I hope McGrath and Keskinen have their phones turned on.

Joking aside must be a while since we had as many players called up for their respective national sides.

Yep, doesn't look fit. I'd rather he was training with the club if I'm honest, but I guess our squad full of internationals will all be away anyway. 

Listening to JTs interview the other day he talked about a few days off. Agree Nisbet doesn’t look fit but now he’s training and trying to prove himself to Clarke, not bad for us if that’s his days off!

From a Scotland perspective, it's not good, as Shankland was by some distance the better of the two at the weekend. Neither are good enough at present, but those are the options. Hopefully he gets a few good days training, with a two minute cameo and winning goal at Hampden. 

Edit: I say at Hampden, because Devlin's hattrick will have sunk the Croats long before Nisbet is required.

2-0 defeat. Very negative set up from start and looked like we were playing for a draw as that kept us ahead in group. Just kept getting deeper and deeper as game went on and it was only a question of when Belgium would score. Jack Milne got on at the end after game was already lost. Didn’t play anywhere near as we did last month against Spain.
