Andy Robertson feels he has honed the role of leading Scotland after taking "a lot on" early in his captaincy.
The Liverpool left-back was given the armband during Alex McLeish's second spell as manager and has carried on under Steve Clarke.
Robertson scored the first goal of Clarke's reign and led his country at Euro 2020.
"It took me a bit of time to get used to being able to put that armband on," the 29-year-old told the BBC.
Robertson, who was speaking to Kammy & Ben's Proper Football Podcast, has been Scotland captain for five years.
