Following the first international break of the season, many of Scotland’s overseas talent returned to league action for their clubs. Whilst many eased back into the action of Serie A, Danny Armstrong was a standout this weekend for Dinamo Bucharest.
Luis Binks: Following his Scotland debut, Binks returned to action in Denmark, paying the full match and putting in a solid performance as Brondby defeated Lyngby 5-2. The currently sit 5th in the Danish SuperLIga.
Scott McTominay & Billy Gilmour: Scott McTominay was ruled out of Sebastien Pocognoli’s first Scotland camp as the midfielder recovered from heart surgery. He made his return to football at the weekend, playing the last half an hour of Napoli’s 3-0 home win against Lecce. It was clear once again that Scotland’s star man is also Napoli’s, due to the reception given to McTominay when he entered the pitch.
Billy Gilmour also made a substitute appearance minutes later, as he returned to Naples following an impressive international break.
Kieron Bowie & Josh Doig: Sassuolo’s Scottish duo returned to action with an impressive 1-1 home draw to Ruben Amorim’s unbeaten AC Milan side. Josh Doig played the full match as Kieron Bowie entered the match after an hour.
Despite scoring his first international goal over the break, Kieron Bowie seems to have lost his first choice place to Sebastiano Esposito.
Danny Armstrong: The Dinamo Bucharest winger provided two assists in his side’s 2-0 win away to Sepsi Sf. Gheorghe. The win kept Bucharest top of the Romanian table and takes his tally for the season to four goals and 10 assists thus far.
