Ben Doak Player Thread (F)

Played well again. unlucky when he smashed tut bar.

The lad is a bit raw at the moment, undoubtedly there is an abundance of talent there, give it time the lad will be really special to us,so unlucky when his shot hit the bar. Another superstar in the making.

Ben scored the 3rd goal for Scotland u21’s tonight from the spot.

Feel sorry for Bens misfortune really. This moment could be the biggest opportunity for him (and all kids who unfortunately got injure).

He's been called up by Scotland for the Euro's.

Or at the very least he's in the provisional squad.

Real shame about his MCL injury, came at a real unfortunate time. Looked our brightest player in pre-season and was just kicking on getting games in cups.

Think he could be 1 that heads out on loan late in the window if he's not back before our pre season tour.

Loan would have to a good one, ideally prem lge

A good one would be somewhere where he can play every week, like Bradley and Quansah for half a season did in league 1. So the level doesn't necessarily matter too much although I wouldn't want him playing in the SPL.

Suspect Forrest will go instead of doak. But this will be a good experience for him.

Hoping we take both mate but Forrest deserves a shot at the finals too.

The wee man off the bench could terrify some old legs in defence of the teams we playing.

He'll not go SPL. Celtic still smarting over losing him and he'll defo not go the other mob......

Hope not as he's better than that......although we do have a habit of sending a few of our kids there.

Is it a straight choice between those two? Nobody else who might not get to go?

Aye.

Nah. Don't think so.

Might not take any of those 2.

Needs to leave 3 from this squad.

It’s only two they’ve gotta cut isn’t it?

They’ve increased the squad size to 26 for this year. So I’m guessing one of the keepers (no squad needs 4) and going from what you’re saying it’ll be a toss up of Doak or Forrest.

Nah. Don't think so.

Liam Kelly will defo get dropped -  no point having Gordon in 26 he's gonna take him for experience.

For me the other  to moss out would be either Hanley or Ryan Jack. Jack's legs have gone.

Doak to score the winning goal as Scotland win the Euros.

You heard it here first!!!!!!

Aye. Suspect Kelly won't go.

Lyndon Dykes ruled out of the Euros, could mean that young Doak deffo goes now.

Not too sure when this filmed, probably in the last 24-48hrs, but here is Robbo confirming he's back in training.

another young player who is just primed to make an impression next season hopefully the Euros will help him get ready for the big time.
