Pocognoli Champions ‘Smiling’ Gilmour to Propel Scotland’s Post-World Cup Ambitions
Scotland manager Sébastien Pocognoli is eager for midfielder Billy Gilmour to play with confidence and joy, believing a “smiling” Gilmour is key to the national team’s improvement after a tough World Cup.
Pocognoli also stressed the importance of consistent club game time for all players, warning that those with limited domestic minutes might struggle for selection in future squads, especially for Euro 2028 qualifiers.
These developments come as Switzerland’s coach, Murat Yakin, missed a press conference due to flight-related hearing issues ahead of their Nations League match against Scotland.
