I agree re. Dinanga but the fact is (and it is a fact) he has scored more goals than Jordan.
If only he scored more often than once in every 5 or 6 genuine opportunities he's presented with. He's a total waste of space at this level.
I don't know, I think the jury's still out on that. He's not John Brady maybe (or even Dickie "90 minutes" Landon"), but I did think he was getting into his stride a bit earlier this season before the loan signings restricted his game time. Alan Shearer often berates strikers for not taking a gamble to get on the end of crosses, and I agree it's a skill getting in those positions.
I think you might have got confused here Hugh, or I’m misreading your post, but if you think John Brady was a waste of space at conference level then I can’t help you. His 90/91 season is on a par with the best strikers in our history.
The only defence I can present for Mr. Cooper Your Honour is that his Alty watching may have started in the 91/92 season when Mr Brady’s morale and commitment had dipped somewhat before his November move to Barrow.
No that's not what I meant! Dinanga's
not in the class of Brady or Landon (in shots per goal ratio) but was starting to look the part earlier this season.
I was watching the Barnet match again only the other night ( still one of the best games I've attended). A great finish by Brady for the first goal. I was actually going to post about this, and how his contribution sometimes gets overlooked. Very nearly a brilliant goal by Gary Anderson in that game by the way.
I should also add that I just twigged watching that again that Tony Incenzo of Sportscast that day must be the same guy now writing for the NLP.
