The showing against Croatia may not be enough for the wonderkid to keep his spot in Warsaw
Steve Clarke dropped a bombshell in Warsaw when he admitted he could drop Ben Doak for Scotland’s must win match with Poland.
“He’s obviously feeling good about himself but he’s in among good people and we’ll keep his feet on the ground. He’s a big talent for now and a big talent for the future.” And when it was pointed out that he would disappoint a huge percentage of the Tartan Army if he chose to take Doak out of the firing line he answered: “Yeah, there would be. But that’s my job.”
“But there’s a lot to work on over the years. But, at the moment, you guys can all be excited about what he does with the ball. There’s plenty of time for him to develop and it’s important not to put too much pressure on the boy.”
