He explains his reason for consistency in selection. Do you really expect him to pull a couple of unexpected rabbits out of a hat for two such important games?

"Who has missed out?"

Shankland/Oli Burke/Max Johnston seem to be the main 3 that people are losing their mind about.

None of those would start either game. It`s as good a squad as we have available IMO.

I didn’t see Mcgregors name there (unless I’m going blind). Have I missed something?

Callum McGregor? He retired from international football after last year`s Euros.

Alllan McGregor should still be in with a shout though tbf.

I don’t think shankland is exactly a world beater but not sure of the logic including hirst over him.

Can`t see Kenny Dalgleish there. Surely a better option than Hirst.

Adams starts for me in that system, but Shankland is ahead of the rest of them

C'mon Ye Pars!

Dykes and Hirst are in there as `target men` to bring our much better midfielders into play. Shankland isn`t a replacement for either as that`s not how he plays, despite being a striker.

The argument should be whether Shankland or Bowie gets the call as Adams backup. And it`s Bowie for me all day long.

Ross Stewart back fit again and amongst the goals, decent as a lone striker too.

Will be spaces to fill soon anyway when Tierney and the other usual suspects pull out with `niggling injuries`.

Hirst is younger and having some success at a comparative level. Only thing I think about Hirst is he looks like he needs a kick in the backside. English Championship is obviously a decent level but there seems to be a lot of talented but complacent players there.

For a Scotland squad today, I’d take Shankland. Bowie is a good youngster and has a lot learn. I think Shankland would get you goals and you can rely on his performance levels.
