John McGinn could become Scotland's ALL TIME top scorer but he's got another Dalglish landmark to hit first - Kenny Miller

John McGinn won’t just surpass my Scotland goal record. If he keeps going the way he is now, he might eclipse Super Ally McCoist and King Kenny Dalglish as well.

He got his 16th goal for his country against Cyprus that puts him just two behind my own 18. But John will definitely beat that. And he’ll probably go above a few guys above me on the list too. It seems like no matter what game comes around – against any opposition – he gets chances for Scotland.

The way we play now and the role he’s got really suits him. He’s got good players around him who do a lot of build-up play. That allows McGinn to get closer to the striker in the box and he’s hungry to score goals. It’s an incredible return for a player who isn’t a striker. He’s not even a conventional midfielder. He’s playing in an attacking position but he offers Scotland so much.

Off the ball, he’s got great energy and pressing qualities. John is now a big player for us. To get 16 goals from a midfield position is outstanding.

I know better than most that chances can be few and far between when you play for Scotland. We’re not famous for scoring a lot of goals. So for John to be consistently getting on the end of chances and converting them is so impressive.

Ally is one goal above me on the list of top scorers and the top two – Dalglish and Denis Law – are on 30 apiece. Kenny is the last player to have scored more than 20 goals for Scotland.

But John will do that. He’s only 28 and there are plenty of international games now, with the Nations League being introduced recently. After his strike yesterday, Scott McTominay came on and got two to seal three points.

But I DON’T think that will guarantee him a start against Spain on Tuesday night. As much as he got a
