What's the story, Pocognoli? What we learned from his first Scotland camp

Following Steve Clarke's resignation, Scotland fans sought change. Sebastien Pocognoli's reign began with a clear philosophy: front-foot, attacking, and aggressive football. However, the execution revealed growing pains.

In his first camp, the good, bad, and ugly were on full display. Against North Macedonia away, Scotland showed promise. At home to Switzerland, they struggled.

The Slovenian defeat at home was a chaotic mix of all three. Pocognoli stuck to his preferred back three, a shape he used at Monaco and Union Saint-Gilloise. Yet, the wing-back roles caused friction.

Youngsters like Ben Gannon-Doak and Andy Robertson were tasked with providing width, but a lack of deep runners made the setup look rigid. Up front, Pocognoli experimented with different formations, switching from a 3-5-2 to a 3-4-2-1. While players like Oli McBurnie and Kieron Bowie impressed, finding the right attacking balance remains a work in progress as the team adapts to the new manager's vision.
