Barry Bannan hopeful of keeping place in Scotland team

Barry Bannan has insisted that he will 'do his all' in a bid to keep his place in the Scotland team after falling down the pecking order at Crystal Palace.

Since Neil Warnock returned as manager at Selhurst Park, the 24-year-old has played just three times for his club.

Bannan, who put on an impressive display in Scotland's 2-1 defeat to Germany last month, is in contention to feature in Saturday's Euro 2016 qualifier against Georgia.

"You've got to look at guys like Alan Hutton - in the past he wasn't playing for his club and was coming away and playing really well for Scotland," BBC Sport quotes Bannan as saying. "The only thing I can do, when I come here, is do my all in training to get into the team."

Gordon Strachan's side will also take on Poland on October 14.
