dohadeer Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Also, I should add, it isn't necessarily negativity, it's just trying to be unbiased and realistic. My analysis of our game in Georgia would be similar to my analysis of Poland playing in Georgia or Ireland playing in Georgia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jagtag Posted June 28, 2015 Share Posted June 28, 2015 Surely you can see the Georgia game is a different type of game to those you have listed though? Not really. I'd say Georgia will approach it similar to Poland at home and try to attack but not throw caution to the wind. If it was to be defensive as you say then it would be similar to Georgia at Ibrox where we scored and won or Ireland at Celtic park where we also scored and won.

My analysis of our game in Georgia would be similar to my analysis of Poland playing in Georgia or Ireland playing in Georgia. Both of those teams won in Georgia so why is it unlikely that Scotland will? Apart from Poland's freak result against Germany we have matched their results in every other game. In fact, we haven't played Germany at home yet so we could still match that one. A Scotland win in Tblisi is realistic. They are ranked 139 in the world for a reason. I'm not saying we are going to go there and win easily but if we go to Georgia expecting to draw 0-0 with a team over 100 places below us in the world rankings then we might as well chuck it.

Okay, you have misunderstood me. I am not claiming it is unlikely we will win or that we should expect a 0-0 draw.

I think it will indeed be similar to Georgia at Ibrox. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's kinda what it looked like though. Saying 0-0 is a VERY likely outcome gives the impression that anything else is unlikely. Apologies for the misunderstanding though.

Agree with you again here. All games gone to form so far near enough. Add on watch Georgia v Poland watched this game and Poland humiliated them embarrassing at times. I know they got better firer power than us but..................... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We battered them, then we got the willies that made it look close.J Edited June 28, 2015 by Bristolhibby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We needed a fluke goal to win 1-0. Edited June 29, 2015 by dohadeer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
