George Burley has got off to a reasonable start at the helm but what changes would you like to see in the National side? Who could be used more effectively? Who should be promoted to the senior side? Who should be dropped? Will Kirk 'Maicon' Broadfoot edge out Alan 'Cafu' Hutton?

Has there ever been any interest in Don Cowie playing for the senior side?

Hutton is the best British Right Back at the moment...although he is hurt and cannot be selected.

the 4-3-3 system or 4-5-1 if you prefer seemed to suit us better. i'm of the opinion that the job Hartley does can be adequately covered between Robson and Brown interchanging, allowing Fletcher more freedom to be more assertive in an attacking sense.

McManus is having a torrid time at the minute and is not convincing at either club or international level. so its Caldwell + a.n.other at CB. hopefully Mulgrew will continue to improve and can start to put pressure on Naysmith for the left back spot. once Hutton is fit he'll be a lock at right back again. with a Hutton/Mulgrew tandem at full backs we'd have plenty of support on the wings when going forward.

am i the only one that thinks McFadden is too greedy for his own good at times? it looks to me like he's hogging the ball more with every passing game.

finally, we must find a way of including Boyd in the line-up. especially in home games. he's the best natural penalty box finisher we have by quite some distance.
