Hide AdWotte said: “I saw that Kilmarnock and Celtic recently only had five Scottish players on the pitch from 22 and that makes me very sad. But the best player on the pitch was a 19-year-old Scottish player and that’s the light in the darkness for me. It means there are good, young Scottish players and we should give them more of a chance, more first team football.”
