McFadden expects attacking focus against Bolivia

[Getty Images]Former Scotland striker James McFadden expects Steve Clarke to take an attacking approach during tomorrow's final World Cup warm-up match against Bolivia.

>Clarke's side beat Curacao 4-1 at Hampden last weekend and now have one game on American soil before they take on Haiti in their Group C opener at Boston Stadium on 13 June.

>"I think more of a focus on attacking, obviously making sure that you're solid defensively, but hopefully we get to see some of the young players again," McFadden told BBC Scotland.

>"Findlay Curtis came on and did really well [against Curacao], scored a goal. Lawrence Shankland as well, so I think we will see more of an attack-minded focus on the game because we have to go and drive it that way."

>McFadden isn't necessarily expecting Clarke to start a full-strength team against Haiti, but he believes some players who missed out against Curacao will return to the fold.

>"Certainly you're looking at John McGinn, Scott McTominay, Lewis Ferguson - the guys that missed out - to get some game time," he said.

>"I know it's been a long season for them but I would expect to see them.

>"I think that he's certainly got a few things to think about, Steve Clarke, in terms of his team selection but I do think we're in a good place."

>And after Scotland captain Andy Robertson's move to Spurs was confirmed, McFadden reckons sealing his move before the World Cup gets under way is a positive.

>"I'm a bit surprised that he's gone to Spurs with the season they've had, but it allows him to focus on the World Cup," McFadden said.

>"Not that he would be distracted anyway, he's a professional, but it means that he can settle, knowing where he's going to be next season."
