Scotland beat Poland 2 -0 in their final Euro 2016 qualifier in Warsaw on Monday night .

Steve Clarke's side have now put in six good performances in a row in the Nations League .

The pitchforks that were out for Clarke in the wake of the Euros can now be decommissioned.

There's an evolution going on here, not a footballing execution.

The emergence of Ben Doak has been a thrilling step in the right direction for Scotland .

Scotland have a long way to go on the offensive side but the Poland game showed that there's a will to attack now which wasn't really there in the dispiriting summer in Germany .

Being so competitive in six League A games against stellar opposition can only help Scotland mature.

Things will get really interesting when some of the injured stars return to the fold.
