ANDY Robertson today vowed to help Scotland turn on the style against England - and prove his side can do more than kick lumps out of other teams.

West Bromwich Albion goalie Ben Foster claimed Gordon Strachan's men were more interested in crunching tackles than pinpoint passes in the Euro 2016 qualifier on Friday night.

That is even though a stunning late goal from Shaun Maloney gave the national side a 1-0 victory over the Republic of Ireland at Celtic Park.

Despite being just 20, Hull City left-back Robertson has certainly shown he can play a bit since forcing his way into the Scotland setup last season.

And the former Celtic and Queen's Park kid is hoping Scotland can light up Parkhead with some fine football against their Auld Enemy this evening.

Asked about Foster's comments, he said: "People watching the game will have seen that both teams tried to play football and that we played the better football.

"We got the ball down and tried to play. You've seen the goal, it was a special goal.

"We worked on it on the training ground and it was sheer passing that got us into that position, and Shaun's finish is unbelievable. So if you watch the goal and the overall game, we played football throughout.

"We are more than capable of playing good passing football if the occasion demands it."

But Robertson believes that, as was the case at Wembley last year, the meeting with Roy Hodgson's team will be anything but friendly.

"It is quoted as a friendly, but both teams won't take it that way," he said.

"It will be a competitive game. It is a massive occasion for both teams, we are both trying to keep our good form going.

"Both teams will approach the game the same way regardless of how their Euro 2016 qualifying section is going and regardless of whether they are in a good position to qualify for the finals. When I grew up the Scotland v England game was kind of a thing of the past, but we all still knew about it and the history behind it.

"The game returned last year and to now be able to be a part of this one will be a great occasion.

"I am really looking ­forward to it. Hopefully I am selected for it.

"I couldn't say whether victory in this game means more to Scotland than it does to England because I don't know what goes on in their camp. All I know is that we are taking it very seriously indeed.

"We have some good form going and have had some good results in the last year or so.

"We will look to carry that on in this game against England.

"I am sure the crowd will be right behind us as they were on Friday night against Ireland.

"I think their support is a sign we are building. We will be doing everything that we possibly can to give them a win."

Robertson is keen to return to his Barclays Premier League team after helping Scotland to defeat both Ireland and England.

He said: "It would be good to go back into training with a smile on my face and with bragging rights over both the English boys and the Irish boys who are there.

"But I am not really ­thinking about that. It is just another game so I am treating it like a normal game. I will go out and try to win it as I do with every game."

Robertson had played only a couple of games for Dundee United after his move from amateur side Queen's Park when England and Scotland met at Wembley last August.

Since then he has moved swiftly from Scotland Under-21s into Strachan's squad and his form earned him a move to Hull in the summer.

But the most recent ­encounter with the Auld Enemy is fresh in his mind.

He said: "I'd just moved up to Dundee so I was in the digs with all the youth boys at United.

"There was a buzz round our wee house. We all gathered round in the living room and watched it. It was a good laugh.

"The Tartan Army went down there in great numbers. It was a great game to watch. Hopefully this one can be the same."
