However, you can’t quantify the importance of a man like Dike, he’s set one up and scored the winner, boy have we missed him, that’s just liquid gold to any team. Your whole midfield can play differently with a man like that up front, I’ve seen it at amateur and semi pro level too, someone up top who gets on the end of things changes everything, frequency of crosses, through balls everything.

Also, if Messi had scored that goal that Rogic put away tonight with the outside of his left boot we wouldn’t have heard the last of it.

Pure quality.
Very good assessment Minn.

I’ll end up eating humble pie in regards to Dike.

Seems like a really nice bloke, very genuine and he looks like a player.

It strikes me that he’d be very potent in the Prem if he stays fit, probably the best we’ve had at that level IF we can keep him and IF he can stay fit.

If we don’t go up I can see him being a massive target for other Prem sides this coming summer.

If someone offers Lai £30m he’ll snap their hands off.

Nice to see and hear Mowbray in the after match, a very fair bloke and he was complimentary about us and didn’t look for excuses.
