Under-pressure Strachan backed by Scot legend

Graeme Souness may have backed Gordon Strachan to continue as Scotland manager yesterday but there comes a point where enough is enough and the feeling among fans is that time is now.

Strachan will meet with the Scottish Football Association this week regarding his future and the backing of a Scottish legend will do his chances no harm of at least finishing the World Cup 2018 qualifying campaign.

Part of the problem for the Tartan Army is Strachan’s reluctance to play in-form players or bring through talented youngsters, instead persevering with players whose better days are years behind them.
