Choose life. Choose Scotland

Adidas' new ad featuring Scott Tominay is a delight

Choose a life. Choose a job. Choose a career. Choose a family. Choose a f'ing big television. Choose Scotland.

This new Adidas spot featuring Scott McTominay is rather wonderful - Iggy Pop, Irvine Welsh, and a genuinely great renaissance story. From Man United benchwarmer to Napoli talisman, sartorial icon, and carrying Scotland's World Cup hopes.
