Thought dicker showed his attributes today. Fine player . The fact Allen keeps him out says it all for the strength we have in depth. Really hope he stays . Great cover for cav |  | | |  |

Against the teams that try to play on the floor I'd rather have Dicker in the team but for the majority of games in this League I think Cav is the type of physical player you need in the defensive midfield role. I think it's ridiculous the sort of players we regularly have on the bench. | |

As posted elsewhere, I beg to differ.
He's a lazy footballer who might have been a better player (he has the attributes - I presume that's what you mean by "is class") but hasn't the footballing heart to put them to proper use. Rarely makes a telling pass and dwells too long on the ball, giving opponents the chance to close him down and causing his team-mates to back pedal to bale him out.
He can go for me. |  |

Slightly harsh to say he can go. His technique is at least league 1 level. But I agree compared to the steel we need at our level he does dither at times. He's class because of his range of passes and tekkers | | | |

I think 'over-casual' describes him well. Certainly wouldn't class him as 'lazy.' |  |
| Possession with progression. |

Yes, I'll accept that.
It's a bit like when someone with the class of David Gower got out to a "lazy" shot - that's not to say he was lazy as such but as you say, over-casual at times. | |

I'm with you on this, D_Alien. I won't be disappointed if he isn't offered a new deal. I'd much prefer to see someone like Hery get more time on the pitch. |  | | |

We shouldn't forget he has not had first team football for a while before replacing Cav today.
He began steadily but IMO began to get into the pace of the match and though lacking the tiger tackling of Cav he distributed well and accurately, which was what he was sent on to do.
He may be a slightly different player in the central mid field but he did his bit today. | | | |

That'd be fine under normal circumstances, but when Dicker had a run of games earlier in the season, he got progressively slower and his passing less accurate, along with his liability to concede possession in a critical area of pitch! | |

Disagree. If Cavanah is injured... It could be the making of Dicker. He's a very good player. Simple as that tbf. [Post edited 18 Jan 2014 20:18]

That's either incredibly tic or your short-term memory has gone.
Cavanagh WAS injured earlier this season. Did Dicker take his chance? No, he blew it. | |

Dicker looked absolutely superb at first and we all thought we'd never see Cav again. Dicker then had a few poor games and was left out of the side.
I'll trust Hill's judgement as he sees him a lot more than us. |  |

So that automatically means he is shit. 12 months ago we all thought Cavanah was shite... I now stand corrected | |

Me too, as it happens.
We've just got an incredible run of games coming up that could see us putting daylight between ourselves and most of the other promotion contenders, and possibly making history in the Cup.
I hope Cav's not seriously injured, that's all. | |

Often, Dicker's problem is that he is a good footballer. Too often he'll receive the ball off team-mates in this tight positions because they trust his to control it and move it on. This happened when Lillis threw one to him in a central area when Lillis had a complete picture of what was on. Dicker looked a bit under pressure but it eventually went back to the keeper and was cleared, even Hill told Lillis about it.
Defensively he's not as good as Cavanagh, but if he decides to stick around he'll have a part to play. And next year he could feature even more, depending which division we're in. |  |

Strange post? Coming away from the game today I would say posting a thread titled 'Dicker is class' would be well down my list of things to do (999,999th maybe). 'Henderson is class' however......... |  |

Listen mate the team is class . End! However dicker is certainly worthy of being a Daley ! The fact most of us are stating that he's not good enough says it all for this season
Hilly is class.....embrace | | | |

Correct ddb. Dicker was ok today when he came on, but had little all to do. Hendo was a class above today and thoroughly deserved the M.O.M. [Post edited 18 Jan 2014 21:06]

Just like against Leeds.......needs a few "sighters" that narrowly miss or goalie saves,then the proper job. | | | |

If someone plays a few games for dale. Starts well, goes average and then has one shocker he will always be remembered for the shocker.
Dicker's first few games were excellent but he went off the boil. Having a starting pairing of Cav and Lund in the middle, with Dicker and Allen as back-up is quality and depth.
As per usual I am happy to trust King Keith's judgement. | |

Another with memory loss. It wasn't just the one, I'm afraid. He was so poor after several games that Hilly ended up having to experiment with three centre-backs, until Cav regained fitness.
But I'll leave it there. If Cav's out we might need Dicker to pull his finger out against really good opposition. I hope he can remember what he did that got him games in the championship. I'll have my fingers crossed. | |
