Former Scotland Forwards Weigh In on Pocognoli's Likely Line-up for Slovenia Clash

Scotland go into their upcoming match away to Slovenia under new head coach Sebastien Pocognoli, prompting speculation over how the squad will be selected and organised under its new leadership.

Former Scotland forwards James McFadden and Pat Nevin have each given their assessment of who Pocognoli is likely to start, reflecting on the shape of the squad and the options available to the new coach as he prepares for his first away fixture in charge.

Pocognoli's appointment marks a change in direction for the national side, and his early selections are expected to offer the clearest early signal of his tactical approach and the players he intends to build around going forward.

The Slovenia fixture represents an early test for the new coaching regime, with pundits and former players watching closely to see how the squad is deployed and which players are given the opportunity to establish themselves under the new set-up.

Further details on the finalised starting line-up are expected to emerge closer to kick-off, as Pocognoli continues to assess his options ahead of the match.
