Dykes, Scotland 17:53 - Oct 9 with 13133 viewsPhilothesuperhoop

He smashed it hard down the middle and the keeper just stood his ground and saved it with his legs. To be honest his penalty technique has worried me from the start….does this mean that keepers have now worked him out?

He never goes for the corner.

A very poor penalty from Lyndon.

Scotland scored 10 out of 10 penalties in their last 2 shootouts so that's doubly annoying.

Getting pelters for his part in Israel's second goal too.

Thought that a little harsh he seemed to be with three of their players at the back post.

Both Israel goals from free kicks that were needlessly conceded just outside the box. No need for the defenders to make those challenges.

VAR was an anxious moment but allowed - correct decision imo

I think keepers have worked him out. He doesn't seem to vary at all from leathering it down the middle and the Israeli keeper just waited. His equaliser though was brilliant technique.

This is like watching QPR. Brilliant attacking play but a bit open at the back.

Got the equaliser though and Scotland score the winner in ET - McTominay.

The commentary I had said that Dykes' yellow card would give him a ban for the Faroes game - which would be good for us. But wasn't his yellow card for a high foot - which must have been over-ruled by VAR if the goal was then given?

Pretty sure the yellow was withdrawn.

He becomes only the second Scot to score in 3 consecutive World Cup qualifiers after Mo Johnston.

He’s got so much character Dykes. He may miss chances and penalties but he doesn’t hide and he’s back there again trying to win the game for his team. Type of character we need at QPR.

Yellow does not count, he gave the ref thumbs-up when the ref told him it did not count.

Now he's missed it down the middle, I am hoping he will never do that again. Useful for us if we ever get a penalty again ... ever.

zzzzzzzzzz

He absolutely should put it down the middle next time too.

Just make sure it goes in this time ;)

We have chosen wisely in Dykes. He will keep getting better and has so much character. Think he is coming in leaps and bounds at the moment, working with Charlie and the coaches we have is paying dividends for not only his skills, but also his self confidence. I have a suspicion that he seems to have put on half a yard of pace to his game recently, but that might just be the improvement in his positioning.

As you all know, he is growing on me, but the two penalty shoot outs we've had in the cup show that there are loads more better takers at the club.

No way should he be our pen taker - nowhere near good enough.

positioning is improving. in the Scotland game he moved across as the play developed for Scotlands first goal and took up a great position which made a pass a good option for McGinn and the defender in front of McGinn was aware of it which may well have helped McGinn with the angle for the shot.

So pleased for him when his goal was eventually given after being ruled out initially for a high foot

I wonder if they've been specifically working on pace in the team because I think Chair has added a bit of pace to his game, maybe he had it before over the first five metres but now he's running half the length of the pitch. And Amos, who always had a bit of pace, now looks like a gazelle.

Very small sample sizes, davman. The players you're talking about have only taken one or two penos each.

I think these things are also decided in training. Happy to trust the management on this.
