Motherwell's Australian hitman Scott McDonald has revealed he would love to play for Scotland. The 21-year-old was born down under but his Scottish parents mean he would be able to turn out for Berti Vogts' side... http://www.sportinglife.com/footbal...OCCER_Motherwell_McDonald.html&TEAMHD=foreign A striker who might actually score for scotland ? surely not!
This isn't exactly the most exciting news I've ever heard but someone who's scoring regularly in the SPL is better than someone who isn't scoring in the English Premier or 1st or Paul Dickov. It would be good if we could try him out in a couple of friendlies, that's if he's still scoring goals in a couple of months.
Vogts is an utter donkey and should be given the boot pronto. Sorry to stray from the point, but it had to be said!
McDonald was awful when he played against Morton last Month, missed a real sitter as well. Certainly didn't look international class. The media is far to quick to jump upon 1 month wonders. Wait till we see what he can do over a longer period of time before shouts for a call-up come!
Berti hasn't got alot to work with, but it doesn't stop him from being a crap manager! Plus, I don't think it's right that a German is in charge of the Scottish national team, if we actually played well it really would be like cheating!
Greece won Euro 2004 with a German manager and I doubt they complain too much! But I know what you're saying.
It doesnt help that he constantly rotates a mediocre squad. This hinders any possibility of the Scots squad developping into ANY sort of , ahem, force!
