He's our mistake.We moan but he's a lemon and a poor choice. Just cut our losses and move on.

Fucking hell. I refreshed the stream about a hundred times. Get shot of him. The same, 77. That was a horrible stream today. But still less horrible than our striker.

If I’ve said it once I’ve said it 1000 times, I cannot wait for this fucking lazy cunt to get out of the club.
He is absolutely fucking useless and I blame Warburton more for even giving him game time.
Fucking shit

I started this thread in Oct ‘20 and it’s interesting to note the optimism in the first few posts. Most of us hold a different view now - dare I suggest that we’re not actually that good at developing players after all?

Given the proper coaching you could turn Dykes from a £1.5 million player into a £10,£15 eventually a £20 million player. He could reach the same levels as Mitrovic of Fulham, at least, within a couple of seasons, pretty quickly. If you know how to do it. 😂 This post should go down in history

Well he is. What did we sign him for if we could get that back I would happily see him exit

Think I've been one of his fiercist critics from way back.
Calling him a donkey is an insult to donkeys.
One of the worst CF I've seen at our place and that is a monumental statement.

Warburton to Dykes: "Hide behind defenders so you won't get involved in the game. But if you do, take a heavy touch and lose possession". 😂😂😂😂 "On the rare occasion the ball is crossed into the box, if it looks like it's going to the near post run to the far post. And visa versa. If it doubt, stand rooted to the penalty spot". Another classic 😂

He later went on to add that HE could have given him said coaching.

Another interesting question would be: Has Lyndon Dykes deteriorated as a player since he first joined the club?
As we all know, strikers are judged primarily on their scoring record (as that's what they're paid to do), and when he first joined us he was averaging 1 in 3 goals, which has now slipped down to 1 in 4 goals.
Yesterday Timmy defended that by arguing the reason for his scoring decline is he's not yet recovered from his injury. Was he arguing that in good faith I've no idea.
Nevertheless on his goal record alone you could easily present an argument that Dykes has actually got worse as a player since he joined us. A 1 in 3 record for a striker is certainly not the worst in the world, and for the record, I was defending him at the time for that reason and I certainly wasn't alone.

I think he is what he is stan. He’s a big lump who should use his size to his advantage but he does absolutely nothing well. Don’t finish well, don’t rough up opposition, don’t hold the ball up, don’t flick it on, does not close down, he literally brings nothing to the team
Strikers are rightly judged on goals but I would be prepared to defend one who only nicked one here and there but contributed in other areas even just two of the above but he adds nothing at all
In all honesty there have been games were if we had started with ten men instead of him it would have made no difference. He is useless and would love Rscot re-register to try and prove otherwise.
When your striker decides to take long throws instead of being in the box trying finish them off it told me everything I needed to know
I don’t blame club as lots of the above is desire which you can’t coach that’s down to individual. Weak mentality which is unusual for an Aussie

Weak mentality which is unusual for an Aussie Indeed that's down to the individual, but you say you don't blame the club for that (and nor do I). So what about the manager as he's the one who keeps picking him? Agree with everything else you say.

By January he had netted 9 goals, one in two. Probably manager keeps on picking him as waits him to find his form again (which probably is ok at training ground). Like Chelsea pick Lukaku or ManU Rashford. You never know about strikers. Five years ago I thought Benzema was the worst striker in football and couldn't understand why he was picked. Look at him now.

If there was some ability in Dykes, surely we would have seen glimses of it no matter who the manager is. Bonne, who is poor, shows always more in 20 minutes than Dykes in 70. Do you think he’s got better or worse? Is Dykes awful or is it Warburton and co’s lack of coaching ability? Dykes and MW have had long enough together to show us something.

No threat, no goals, no assists, no effort. Nothing. That is down to MW. Since he brought him back in he’s been worse week on week. The rest of your post I generally agree with.

He had a good year 2021, can't take that away from him, but unfortunately he's back to his 2020 form atm.
