Great interview in todays Scotsman with Yogi talking about Deeks being the kind of player Scotland would benefit from.
Like the quotes about Deeks nightlife
"He thinks the penny has dropped and the player is finally fully focused on his football, the complications of nightclub bans and untimely drinking sessions hopefully behind him. "I won't sit here and say 'Aye, that's definitely in the past' only to pick up a paper next week thinking 'Oh, c'mon Derek' and find he has let himself, as well as everybody connected with the club, down again," he says, "but I have to trust him."
Then he goes on to add
"But what (the players] don't know is that it's all my mates that are on the doors (at the nightclubs] and I know where every one of them is! Honestly, I'm serious, and I can see them thinking 'how does he know that?' but I'm getting texts all the time from the boys on the door but as long as they come in here and work hard and they are out at the right time then that's OK." :faf::faf:
If Yogi gets him focussed on his football I think he will be a certainty for the Scotland squad in the future and then it's up to him to take the opportunity. :thumbsup:
