BILLY STARK is not surprised to see Tony Watt banging in the goals for loan club SK Lierse - but is in no rush to bring the Celtic striker back into the Scotland Under-21 set-up.

Hoops boss Neil Lennon branded the 20-year-old immature after sending him to the Belgian club last year, while Lierse coach Stanley Menzo described the former Airdrie player as "lazy and unfit" after he scored on his debut in the 2-0 win over Kortrijk in September.

Watt was reported to have been sent home from training on two separate occasions by Menzo and there was talk of him returning to Parkhead in January.

However, he has appeared to knuckle down recently, scoring seven goals in eight games for Lierse, but was left out of Stark's squad for the third time running for the friendly against Hungary at Tannadice tomorrow night.

That prompted Watt to tweet in frustration: "Thought it would be 3rd time lucky for Scotland squad £piedagain."

Boss Stark confirmed that Dundee United duo Ryan Gauld (hip) and John Souttar (Achilles) are out and are set to be joined by St Johnstone striker Stevie May, who is struggling with a hamstring problem, but only Celtic midfielder John Herron has been drafted in.

"He just said he was disappointed basically and he used a modern term, I'm told," said Stark.
