Hungarian-born football journalist Bence Bocsak tells us about his nation's weaknesses...

I know what you're wondering.

What did Henriette Reker, the mayor of Cologne, think about the influx of Scottish fans to her wonderful city?

Well, I have some good news.

Jake: Tom, do you think Lawrence Shankland should start up front against Hungary?

Tom English: I go backwards and forwards on this one, Jake. I'd probably stick with Che Adams and I think that's what Steve Clarke will do.

The signs are all there, in that he took so long to bring Shankland on in Cologne. He trusts Adams more. I'd stick with him but I'd be quicker to bring Shankland on from the hour-mark.

Chris Mc: Do you think our wingers will get any game-time against Hungary to boost our impact in the forward areas?

Tom English: Hi Chris, I think that will depend on how the Hungary game is progressing. I can't see any changes beyond the enforced one with Kieran Tierney.

If Scotland are drawing or, heaven forbid, losing in the second half then all bets are off. I could definitely see James Forrest coming on at that point. I'd be surprised if we saw Lewis Morgan.

"There’s so few players in world football that can control games at the top level," former Scotland winger Pat Nevin said on the Football Daily podcast.

"He’s not controlled the whole game, but the best of our play comes through Billy. He’s extra special, and I couldn’t understand him not starting the first game.

"He showed he’s a fabulous player. We’re very fortunate to have him, and I hope he plays in every game we get [in the tournament]."

Do you agree?

I've been reminded that the Euros isn't the only thing going on in football right now, so here's some domestic transfer news for you.

• Rangers sign Barron following Dons exit
• Dundee open talks with McCowan over new contract
• Paul Hanlon joins Lewis Stevenson at Raith Rovers
• Motherwell announce signing of strikers Robinson and Stuparevic
• Former Gers kid McPake joins St Johnstone

Should Scotland go four at the back? Should they stick with the five and slot another defender in?

Could Anthony Ralston be replaced by Ross McCrorie or even James Forrest?

Football coach and analyst John Walker also joined the podcast and had his say on who could replace the injured Kieran Tierney:

"In a national tournament, you want some sort of consistency, especially in your backline when you do rely heavily on keeping the team shut out and shuffling across.

"You look the decision to send John Souttar home - maybe it's not been a wise one because we are restricted in what we have. However, when Scott McKenna came on, I thought he was brilliant in that half hour.

"That back five is there to suit both Robertson and Tierney getting in our team together. When we don't have both of them we've struggled, but I thought Scott McKenna was brilliant."

Who do you think should replace Kieran Tierney then?

Did Scott McKenna impress you yesterday? Should he start against Hungary?

Get clicking those thumbs.

We were joined by Hungarian-born football journalist Bence Bocsak on the Scottish Football Podcast earlier, and he gave us an insight into Scotland's opposition on Sunday...

"The game will be won in midfield. Hungary's midfield is probably their most vulnerable sort of area. Scotland do have some very talented midfielders and I think that's where Scotland have the edge over Hungary.

"Strangely, I think the game will be won by the team that has less of the ball because if we're looking at both teams, they're both sort of very reactionary teams, good in transitions."

Our budding young reporter Tom English is on the scene in Germany, but let's keep him entertained as he waits for Scotland's media conference.

Have you got any burning questions for him to answer? What's it like to be on the receiving end of a Steve Clarke stare, perhaps?

Get your questions in here., external

The carousing in Cologne is over and the Tartan Army are on their way to a celebration in Stuttgart.

Well, hopefully.

We'll be bringing you all the analysis ahead of the win-or-bust match against Hungary, and we'll find out the latest chat from the Scotland camp.

Sit back, relax, and allow me to twitch nervously on your behalf. Let's get going.
