Is he the answer? Plays it out from back well but tonight not sure he won a header in the box.

Too early to say. We conceded too many last season and now 3 at bloody Coventry.

He is half decent but will not improve as a defender under Warburton.

Thought him and Kakay were pretty solid tonight to be honest.
First goal, Wallace completely switched off and didn’t follow his man, the second goal I actually thought fair play to Coventry and the third goal was poor from barbet.
Carroll, Amos and Cameron were shit in front of them not only defensively but offered nothing creative.
The lads decent, we need to get behind him. We have bigger issues then dickie ie -
Lumley Wallace AMOS as a CAM Chair as a winger No creativity in the middle of the park Cameron as club captain
Let alone our defensive play I wonder how we are going to score. Our passing is great but we go no where with it and we miss that killer ball and even when we do go forward we have Amos looking lost or Chaor cutting back and going back to our goal.
All very odd and MW and the board need to go and get some players in ASAP.
We need players like Ben Watson,Adomah, Bonne a genuine CAM who can handle champ football and a lb!

Needs a chance and seems ok but I was happy with Masterson myself.

I'm prepared to give him more than two games, one of which was a clean sheet.

I'm sure he'll prove to be a quality CB, just needs time to get used to how much work he'll have to do with a non-existent CDM in front of him and a wannabe midfielder as a CB partner.

Him and Masterson woukd be first choice this Barbet is nowhere near strong enough. Maybe the time to play 3 centre backs.

Bit quick for this thread that being said looked solid first game but bit shaky yesterday. Early days finding his feet in a team which don’t seem to have a defensive strategy

Early days finding his feet in a team which don’t seem to have a defensive strategy I think there is a player there and no coincidence that none of centre halves look good when partnering Barbet. The issue the left hand side of the defence is costing us game after game. Surely after the way Wallace and Manning have performed that young Niko is giving a chance as Wallace looked old and slow last night.

Wasn't really meant as a criticism of Dickie as a player.like I said, good on the ball. Just that he didn't win too many headers in the box. He's certainly no Richard Dunne which is what we need with our record of defending corners and dead balls.

Barbet is the issue for me. Too busy thinking like a midfielder than a defender.
Great when you are coasting a game but how often do we do that.
I wouldn't mind seeing Dickie / Masterson. Fuck inexperience...that is a partnership that can last years.

Thread is embarrassing. He was in the team of the year last year and 1;game he is written off.

If the question is "What is the first name of the famous Test Cricket umpire from Yorkshire with a last name of Bird?"

apart from Austin, i think Dickie is the best signing that we have made tbf.
the kid looks class and will only get better.

More I see him more I like. He’s young so there will be mistakes but as long as he learns from them so be it
Really chuffed we have him

Like the lad and will turn out to be a very shrewd buy.

Very tidy player. Much better in a three than a flat back four. That compensates for his slight lack of pace. Which explains why he's sometimes too hands on. Not recently that though.

A flat back Four would suggest having F/Bs whose main ability was to be able to defend properly..we haven’t had any to do that.
I said before I would like for us to be able to play Four at the back as it would provide more options in fitting in more attacking players into the line up.

Wherever we paid for him, it was an absolute steal. Captain next year?
