Billy Gilmour, they say, should start the opening match against the Czech Republic at Hampden on Monday. The quality of his half-hour against Luxembourg on Sunday night was such that the 19-year-old Chelsea player has become a contender to step into Steve Clarke’s first-choice XI. As far as many are concerned, the young midfielder is simply too talented to leave out.
