Michael Stewart seems to rate Celtic and Scotland international defender Kieran Tierney highly.
Former Manchester United and Scotland international midfielder Michael Stewart has stated on social networking site Twitter that Celtic defender Kieran Tierney is a cracking player.
Stewart, who also played for Hibernian and Heart of Midlothian, believes that the 19-year-old left-back should be in the Scotland starting lineup.
The 35-year-old made the comment following Gordon Strachan’s side’s failure to win against Lithuania at the weekend.
Scotland played out a 1-1 draw with Lithuania at Hampden Park in Glasgow in the 2018 FIFA World Cup qualification UEFA Group F game on Saturday evening.
Tierney, who is one of the best left-backs in the Scottish Premiership and also played for Scotland, was an unused substitute during the game.
Over the course of the 90 minutes at Hampden Park in Glasgow on Saturday evening, hosts Scotland had 62% of the possession, took 19 shots of which three were on target, and earned nine corners, according to BBC Sport.
Strachan’s side are second in Group F with four points from two matches, two points behind leaders England.
