Squad for 11 Oct Qualifier with Norway
Here is George Burley’s squad for Saturday’s matchup with Norway. More on this match as it gets closer.
Keepers:
Craig Gordon (Sunderland), David Marshall (Norwich), Allan McGregor (Rangers)
Defenders:
Graham Alexander (Burnley), Darren Barr (Falkirk), Christophe Berra (Hearts), Kirk Broadfoot (Rangers), Gary Caldwell (Celtic), Jamie McAllister (Bristol City), Gary Naysmith (Sheffield United), Davie Weir (Rangers)
Midfield:
Scott Brown (Celtic), Kris Commons (Derby), Darren Fletcher (Man United), Paul Hartley (Celtic), James Morrison (West Brom), Barry Robson (Celtic), Kevin Thomson (Rangers)
Forwards:
Kris Boyd (Rangers), David Clarkson (Motherwell), Steven Fletcher (Hibernian), Chris Iwelumo (Wolves), Shaun Maloney (Celtic), James McFadden (Birmingham), Kenny Miller (Rangers)
Congratulations to Chris Iwelumo for his first full senior call-up to the Scotland side. If only it wasn’t at our deepest position. Frankly, striker is not where we need new blood. Boyd, Miller, Maloney and of course McFadden are fine finishers on their day, and Clarkson and Fletcher are great future prospects. As much as I like Iwelumo and Wolves this season, I would have liked to see another midfielder in there, rather than a seventh striker we won’t use. My suggestion would be Michael Stewart from Hearts – 3 goals in 8 appearances and two of them worth three points each to the club.

I’ll be looking forward to this game, since I particularly like both footballing nations. I predict a 1-1 score.
I also want to see how this Iwelumo will perform.

Probably a good call keeping McManus at home for this one. He’s been dreadful for Celtic. Caldwell has been solid though. Ever since the altercation with Weir last year he’s been good. Maybe it woke him up or something.
