He was genuinely taken aback when he was informed that it had just been announced that East Renfrewshire Council, the local authority in the area where he grew up, was changing its name to East Robbo-shire council for the duration of the tournament.“I hope you can tell by my face that I didn't know this had happened,” he said, during a pre-match press conference. He is now preparing to displace Colin Hendry as the last man to lead Scotland out at a World Cup.“I've been very fortunate to play in big games, win trophies, play at the biggest club in the world,” he said.

But the excitement's definitely building in terms of the squad as well.”He is delighted to have his future sorted before the tournament. But he opted for Spurs, the side he nearly joined in January.“It was one thing I wanted,” he said.

I just didn’t want anything overhanging me.“I am very happy that has been resolved and I’m very happy going to Tottenham,” he added. I am fully focused on Scotland and whenever this tournament ends for us I will have a switch-off and then I will be fully into my new chapter and my new challenge.”“We don’t want any regrets,” he added.
