Frankie 8,150 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Well done to the lad and it's interesting to see that he's been listed amongst the forwards as opposed to the midfielders. On the actual squad sheet he's in midfield... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chibmark 15 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Only 4 Scottish based players in the entire squad. Delighted for Macleod as he has been our one faint hope since 2012. Anyone with the faintest knowledge of football would've seen him stand out like a sore thumb in SFL3 and his injury coincided with a deterioration in the football quality being served up by McCoist & co. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crimson Dynamo 128 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Hopefully Macleod continues to develop in spite of what his clueless manager does. Playing young players out of position, at a crucial stage of their development, certainly does absolutely nothing positive for their progression. McCoist would rather have a team of Big Lee or Christian Dailly types than actual footballers. I fear he'll need to leave to develop 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ian1964 10,416 Posted November 4, 2014 Author Share Posted November 4, 2014 LEWIS MACLEOD'S excellent form this season has seen him rewarded with a call up to the full Scotland squad for this month's matches with the Republic of Ireland and England. The young midfielder has scored seven times in fifteen appearance this campaign to take his Gers tally to 15 goals in just 70 outings for the Light Blues. Here you can enjoy all of his strikes for Rangers as Macleod celebrates his inclusion in the national team's squad.

der Berliner 3,247 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 He may not feature in the Ireland game but a friendly with England is exactly the kind of experience the lad needs. With 15 EPL managers looking on, can we expect (or shall we brace ourselves for) a 5m bid in January, should he outshine the English? (Of course, they'll start bidding at 200k ... ) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Waltersgotstyle 297 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 Good on Lewis MacLeod. I see Hutton is out which is a blow. Is it really? I thought Hutton was shocking against Poland. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 With 15 EPL managers looking on, can we expect (or shall we brace ourselves for) a 5m bid in January, should he outshine the English? (Of course, they'll start bidding at 200k ... ) 5m? He'd be gone for a million or 2. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blinkyman 0 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) A week ago Saturday at Dumbarton with the absence of Black, MacLeod did play, in the middle of the park, and was unimpressive IMHO. Last Saturday he played on the right side and in the second half was the only offensive threat/spark in a dismal display. I don't care where he plays as long as he plays. He is a gem with a very bright future. I hope he stays and becomes a legend. Truly sick of this 'playing out of position' pish, give it a rest ...............

Truly sick of this 'playing out of position' pish, give it a rest ............... I agree with you. Truly good players are able to play well anywhere on the pitch. The 'out of position' mantra is used by supporters in order to cover up the technical deficiencies of a favoured player. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
