Key Player - Colin Hendry

The 32-year-old Blackburn central defender personifies Scotland's "Braveheart spirit".

He is a good leader, commanding at the back, and at 6ft 1in also a threat in the air from set-pieces.

Blackburn paid Manchester City £700,000 for Hendry in 1991 - good value for a man who skippered them to the title four years later.

Hendry, who started his career at Dundee, played seven times for Scotland during their qualifying campaign and is now fully fit after early season injuries.
