FKANorwichExile Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 If you'd been in a coma and hadn't seen football for a decade and someone told you Didzy had been a pivotal top 6 player for his entire career, you'd believe them. He makes watching an absolute joy. Zag zig, EtoileSportiveDeDerby, angieram and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd been in a coma for 20 years and someone asked where Derby, Ipswich, Bolton and Portsmouth were in the football pyramid and where Fulham, Brentford, Brighton and Bournemouth were, you'd be surprised. 8,000 at a premier league match and a 130 million squad with 70 million wages in the championship- very fair play. Bournemouth AFC come on down. Reggie Greenwood and Ram@Lincoln 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gerry Daly Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 I saw the comparison with Chris Martin earlier in the thread.

Steve How Hard? Posted January 3, 2023 Share Posted January 3, 2023 Love his sublime, silky skills and obvious footballing intelligence. However what caps it for me is that he still has a hunger and passion for the game. So many pros get to his stage of their careers and you can see it a mile off that they're just going through the motions for that final pay day. Absolutely love that desire and fire in his belly. Something tells me though that no player would get within a million miles of a Paul Warne team if they didn't give 100%.

I’m hoping that proves to be the case next season, no reason to believe he wouldn’t have a part to play in a newly promoted Rams team, fingers crossed. We got lucky he’s settled in the area and appreciate’s being able to play for us, as much as we all appreciate him being here.

Diddzy’s more mobile and hard-working. Always used to say Martin was a 9.5, not quite a 9 or a 10. I think it’s more accurate to say Diddzy’s a 9.75 and Martin’s a 9.25 Marriot Ram99 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Problem is, your brain is still telling you you’re 18. Same for Didzy. The worry is, the way he takes the ball down and jinkily shields it, he’s frequently at full stretch. I would rest him from time to time, take him off whenever we have the luxury, keep his pre game warm up and stretches under constant review and get him a very attractive private yoga teacher SKRam 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ian Buxton's Bat Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 When Rooney signed, some of his touches, vision and passing were the best I've seen from a Derby player in donkey's years. DM has the same level of skill but with vastly superior general mobility and proper, decent pace over the first 5 yards. He also has a magical ability to get his body in the right place to deny opponents a sniff of getting the ball, thus drawing fouls........seemingly invisible to the Accrington ref. For me, best signing in ages........amongst a lot of decent LR signings. kevinhectoring, Rammy03 and SKRam 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
