McFadden can see Burke and Bale comparisonpublished at 10:35 British Summer Time 29 August 2016

BBC Scotland"Former Scotland forward James McFadden says Oliver Burke's £13m move to RB Leipzig will be great for the Scotland player's development. He says living abroad and learning from a different football culture will also benefit the national team.
"Motherwell player-assistant manager McFadden added that Well boss and Scotland assistant manager Mark McGhee is a huge fan of Burke and can understand why comparisons have been drawn between the player and Gareth Bale, who left England to go to Spain with Real Madrid."

Burke the harepublished at 10:21 British Summer Time 29 August 2016
Heather Dewar, in between her sport desks on BBC Radio Scotland, has spoken to the Guardian's Danny Taylor, external about Oliver Burke. Here's what Danny had to say about the £13m winger: "Just about every club in the Premier League was looking at him. He's an incredible talent.
"It might sound a bit daft saying this but I almost think £13m, in today's inflated market, is almost a good deal for the club that has bought him. He hasn't played many games but he is a rare talent.
"You don't often see someone as quick as him with that powerful build.
"I'm almost loathe to say this but the only other player I could compare it with is Gareth Bale, in terms of the sheer power, almost with an Olympic athlete's physique. He can just knock the ball past someone and rely on his pace to get there first. It's still early days but you could see him really playing at the top.
"He has got a lot of work to do. He needs football intelligence but that comes with experience. In terms of his quality he really has got an ability to terrorise opposition defences."

It's international week, which has everything to do with World Cup qualifiers and nothing to do with a United Nations campaign. Here are a few snippets from the Scottish gossip column:
- West Brom's £1m-rated Costa Rican right-back Cristian Gamboa is interesting Celtic
- Malta's defence-minded Italian manager Pietro Ghedin does not intend to change tack for the Scots' visit
