RYAN PORTEOUS is convinced his Scotland call-up is reward for a steely determination to shut out the external noise that has shadowed his fledgling career and to instead let his football do the talking. “My performances this season have obviously been at a standard that convinced Steve Clarke that I'm capable of playing for his Scotland team. Potentially not, but I am in a Scotland squad, with the chance to prove myself, and that's what I wanted to achieve. From the start of the season I have been concentrating on football and it has paid off as I am in the Scotland squad. That is all I really want to do just now, concentrate on playing football and I will keep the discussions private.
