Jens Berthel Askou is not surprised none of his Motherwell squad have been selected for Scotland's upcoming pre-World Cup friendlies, despite the Fir Park's impressive season. The Danish manager insisted it's not for him to have an opinion and players need to fit into a different style from what they do at his club. Askou added he would have been very surprised if Scotland coach Steve Clarke had made significant changes to a squad that has got them to the World Cup. However, he conceded some players may have hoped to be involved. "I don't have the knowledge about potential players that he can pick," said Askou.
