Gary Caldwell is an accident waiting to happen. I have the horrible feeling that the Wigan Athletic centre half is going to give away a vital penalty when playing for Scotland.
Against Everton yesterday he gave away a penalty and was lucky not to concede a second after barging Nikola Jelavic to the ground needlessly.
The Scottish press love to cheer about former SPL players who move south. Caldwell is capable centre half who can get his body in the way but he is often clumsy in the box and picks up many cautions. He enjoys an exaggerated reputation north of the border mainly because he gives interviews and previously won the Player of the Season: as a centre midfielder.
I am fairly certain Levein will play him at the centre of defence along with Christophe Berra, totally ignoring the merits of Charlie Mulgrew. I hope I am wrong but I fear Caldwell will cost us.
