Defiant Lewis Ferguson urges Scotland to trust in the process and targets Pot 2 place

Lewis Ferguson has urged Scotland supporters and teammates to trust the process under new manager Sebastien Pocognoli following a 2-1 Nations League defeat to Slovenia at Hampden. Despite falling three points behind Slovenia in Group B1, the Bologna midfielder refuses to give up on securing second place and earning a Pot 2 seeding for the Euro 2028 qualifying draw.

Scotland must defeat North Macedonia at home and Switzerland away while hoping Slovenia drop points to achieve a top-two finish. Ferguson defended Pocognoli's tactics, stating that implementing the new system takes time and rejecting fatigue as an excuse for the team's display.
