Big Lyndon has been named in the Scotland squad today. Good.

Poll: Moses Odubajo - Stick or Twist?

Good, he's clearly happy with that as it was his choice.

And it's great for us. Warburton had said it last week so there must have been a commitment to us as well.

Very pleased he's not going to be doing the Luongo run every international break. Hampden Park a lot less of a slog!

Does he have to actually get on the pitch for the Luongo pilgrimage to be out of the question in future?

Yes. He has to actually play any part of a meaningful match.

Agreed, this is why it's good for us. He doesn't end flying around the world just to sit on the subs bench and then do it all over again. Also, if he starts scoring it builds his confidence. Good all-around for us.

Great for him but sadly the ROI new Manager passed up the chance to call up Manning for the upcoming friendly .Its a surprising omission seeing as he managed him at U23 and clearly knows about his ability.
God knows Ireland need attacking threats and I thought Kenny would clean house but it looks like business as usual.
Maybe it because of a pending move ?

Apparently the clincher was Saturday's goal. The Scots wanted someone who could put away chances from 1 yard out:

Great news.

Our brand new, first choice striker will shortly be a fully fledged international.

He's looking a bargain at £2mill from the SPL already

I see the official announcement lists him as playing for Queen's Park Rangers.

I am still Steve but no longer in Dagenham.

Ye need to get over the name guys. Firstly it's grossly offensive to women - there is no point in supporting an anti-racist campaign against black people if you are then going to use homophobic slurs. The argument that it's 'just a bit of banter' doesn't wash in 2020. Secondly, Dykes is quite a common celtic surname. There are several people whose surname is Dykes in Ireland, including a very talented CB for Sligo Rovers for over a decade in the 90's

Congrats Lyndon (though I hope the call up has triggered an add-on).

Boo. I wanted him in the green and gold. At least now we’ll never have to worry about him getting injured at the World Cup 😉

Me too. Disappointed he didn't make the squad. Actually thought Masterson might get the nod too as we are not blessed with mobile defenders

I'm not sure Masterson has done enough, at least not yet.

As for Manning - I can see why he wasn't picked. His defending hasn't improved and he hasn't played further forward in a long time now. For this squad we have proven performers in both positions. I hope we move on from them soon, but when we do Manning will have to have done more to take advantage.

I actually like Enda Stevens, think he has done a decent job at Sheffield Utd and we are not blessed with prem players. I like McClean too, love his honesty (both on and off the pitch) and his willingness to give his all even in the 95th minute. I just think that it would be a good time to include someone as versatile as Manning in the squad. With no friendlies anymore, these 'competitive' games are the best opportunity to blood new talent.
While I agree that Masterson has some work to do to dislodge the regular CB's, Kenny knows him inside out and I thought he would be worth a shout in the squad
