Nemane was a bigger threat(although Chicksen did brilliant with his goals tally)but Chicksen better defensively which you would expect with the positions they have played most of their career.
They both played a BIG part in our success

Chicksen did brilliantly and will be an excellent squad player next season(although with his attitude and desire he could be a regular)definitely be in the team as a left back or possibly as the left central defender.
Yeah, his biggest success was making sure he was at the back post when we were swinging balls in from the right. I don't like the whole "check back Charlie" jibes because he knew his limitations and better to recycle and create a higher value opportunity than risk losing possession. That's not negative, its good game management. Everyone knows he doesn't have the pace of Nemane but to be fair there were maybe a dozen or so matches that I saw where he did beat his man at least once.
