The midfield is depressing but what's new there? McGrath hasn't done enough in a green shirt or elsewhere to warrant more call ups imop but we are so short on creativity. Sykes and Szmodics would have been more interesting maybe. Conor Ronan and Hodge as well. Seem to have done ok for Wolves in the cup yesterday and Hodge is at least getting EPL minutes as said above.
Scales seems to be doing well for Aberdeen at centre half but I'd agree with pineapple in that non Celtic/Rangers players shouldn't really be getting in ahead of e.g. Manning who offers the same versatility at cb and lwb.
I can see the logic behind Farrugia being on standby but I'd hope it's as a midfielder. He's not a good enough defender to move up to international level (maybe Malta...) in that position but he has been excellent going forward from either side or through the middle recently. Kenny obviously knows him well. Gaffney makes less sense at 33 but that's just a token gesture to the league I think.
At least some of the strikers are in decent form although maybe it's the less exciting ones....
