Strachan content with his 'young and fresh' Scotland squad

Scotland manager Gordon Strachan is very excited by the state of his current squad.

Strachan has an attacking bunch of young players for World Cup qualifiers against Wales in Glasgow on Friday and Serbia in Novi Sad on Tuesday and he admits he is very content with what he has at his disposal.

"We have a young bunch. I had a look at them this morning and thought 'They are quite young and fresh'," he said.

"It's not as powerful as the team has been before, so we have to use the skills we have.

"I'm not worried about any player not being here. I would like them all to be here, but I've been looking at the players saying 'I like that, I like that'.

"It's up to us to play with the assets we have."
