That’s not a huge achievement but the laddie has done pretty well given the service he’s had. That run and peel off for the goal tonight. He does that 10 times a game, makes space for himself in the box constantly but rarely gets picked out Not good enough for Hearts ?

OTT Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Pleased with that result. Can see what Clarkes doing now and why he's persisting with this formation. Personally, don't like Callum McGregor, but thought he brought a lot when he came on. I'm really not sure what position he's actually meant to play, like is he an attacking midfielder, defensive? Because it looked like he was playing LM when he came on and was really solid. An actual striker in Dykes is good. But, looks like Robertson got himself suspended so the czech game just got needlessly harder... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's a good player from the limited amount I've seen of him. @kingantti1874 I didn't see the ICT game, that's encouraging to hear we created more chances. For the past two years and against Cowdenbeath we've created very, very little for our strikers. To the extent it almost makes me frustrated we have a player like Boyce who I rate really highly as a goalscorer but I doubt he'll get nearly the numbers he could for us due to lack of decent service.

Exactly, we’ve had a few over the years. Most strikers need good service and we’ve struggled to provide it, yesterday was no better. Lafferty was about the only one who could get a goal without service since administration. Dykes has done well.

No idea how he would know right enough. Tierney still out right? Leaves Greg Taylor... gulp. IMO Hickey should be getting the 3rd choice LB spot ahead of him. Laddie can barely get game time at Celtic, Hickey is playing first team football in the serie A and can play either side of the pitch. See for the stick that Considines call up was getting though, I actually think there is something to be said for calling up players who aren't necessarily international standard for a one off. I think it will mean the world to them and you'll get a player who is 100% focused on making sure their call up is a good memory for them. I was really impressed with Considine, very solid. Our whole defensive unit is looking like quite a force now. Interestingly, Gallacher is on a free in the summer. Already played with Halkett in a notoriously difficult to beat Livi team, Berra is on the decline and Souttar needs to focus on his recovery. Could do a lot worse (actually we have!).

Fair play to Gallagher over these two games, been very solid. Considine tonight as well. Very impressed with Dykes overall. Something nobody talks about is that the world cup draw in December is based on the world rankings, so if we have a great couple months we've an outside chance of getting into Pot 2 in the seedings.

Doc Rob Posted October 11, 2020 Share Posted October 11, 2020 Dykes might not be an amazing player, but tonight was the same as v the Czechs - as soon as he was presented with a decent chance, he buried it. Correct me if I’m wrong, but did Scotland not play 4 at the back in this game? I’m not sure about that, but Clarke certainly dropped Jack and McBurnie and played Fraser from the start. Bingo, Scotland look better and win the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
