You are the Scotland boss - what would you do?

What the report says

BBC Sport Football says new Scotland head coach Sebastien Pocognoli is weighing his first home starting XI as Scotland prepare to face North Macedonia in the Nations League in Skopje on Saturday. Pocognoli is still seeking his first win after a 0-0 draw in Slovenia and a 3-0 home defeat by Switzerland, and he is expected to keep searching for the right balance after making three changes across his opening camp.

The article focuses on possible selection decisions rather than confirming a final team. Jack Hendry is unavailable after his red card against Switzerland, which could affect Scotland’s defensive shape. BBC Sport suggests Pocognoli may stick with a back three, with options including Scott McKenna, Stephen Welsh, Luis Binks and potentially uncapped Luke Graham. On the wings, Ben Gannon-Doak is highlighted as a contender for a start after offering more attacking threat from the bench, while Nathan Patterson and captain Andy Robertson are discussed as likely wing-back choices.

In midfield, Billy Gilmour and Lewis Ferguson appear most secure, while John McGinn is described as under some pressure after quieter recent displays. Up front, Oli McBurnie is presented as a strong candidate to continue after impressing in the last two matches, though Pocognoli could also look at other forward options. The piece underlines Scotland’s need for a result as they try to improve their position in Group B1 and keep their hopes of finishing strongly alive.
