Defender Max Johnston believes the recent success of Scots abroad will be of huge help to the national team as they build towards the World Cup qualifying campaign.
Johnston was part of the Sturm Graz side that clinched back-to-back league titles to mark another silverware winning season in Austria.
That, alongside Serie A success for Scott McTominay and Billy Gilmour with Napoli, and Lewis Ferguson captaining Bologna to the Coppa Italia, gives Johnston the belief that a winning mentality is growing throughout Steve Clarke's squad.
In the build-up to the friendly double-header against Iceland and Liechtenstein, the xx-year-old said: "It was really enjoyable for me winning the league over in Austria.
"It's amazing to see how many trophies in so many different countries the boys have won. It's amazing to see Scottish players doing so well abroad.
"It's really encouraging for us that players are starting to win titles and cups now so I think that's going to be huge for us.
"As a footballer you want to be a winner. It's great to see and I think it will be a huge help to us. It'll definitely help us."
The former Motherwell wing-back has one cap, a brief cameo in the 1-0 win in Greece in the Nations League play-off first leg in March, and is keen to build on that and the Champions League experience he gained last term.
"I've got a small taste for it and it's just made me hungry for more," Johnston said.
"It is a huge honour to be involved in the squad again and coming off a good camp, last camp for me personally.
"Any opportunity I get to represent my country is obviously an amazing opportunity. I love it.
"I feel like I've improved, definitely, by getting the amount of minutes that I've managed to get.
"As a footballer you need to play to continue to learn. I've been learning and improving every week.
