    Dawkins

    On fire tonight. All those games with no end product. Then tonight... a different player. Two amazing goals. I hope he is turning a corner. I have to admit I was doubting we would ever see him do anything close to this.

    He's got it in him. Really pleased he found the net

    It' the effect of Ibe coming in. Dawkins has stepped up to the plate.

    Sounded very good second half tonight.

    Let's hope it is the start of a more productive spell from him. I look forward to seeing him in the flesh next week and seeing if he's looking a dif player to the one I've seen previously.

    I've always thought him a useful player, if he can add goals to his locker then he will be key for us this season.

    A fantastic performance from Dawkins. His two goals were of immense quality, and should fill him with confidence. His team play was second to none also.

    Replace Ibe, score 5 with free-flowing football again, sub Ibe on and don't score.


    Enough said. Dawkins is by far the better footballer.

    One thing that I felt Ibe has over Dawkins is directness. He's not afraid to take people on even if it means losing the ball however I thought Dawkins played extremely well last night and showed me something I hadn't seen from him before. He was direct, showed close touch and a cracking finish.

    The the improvisation for that flick was sublime, pure class. Had Messi scored that they'd be raving about it for months. This is the Dawkins I want to see and yeah currently Ibe would be ranked 4th on my list of our wingers. I'd still say Ward and Russell are our best two, although with Ward being injured I'd like to see Russell & Dawkins vs Brentford.

    Not really fair. 5-2 up, the team took their foot off the gas.

    On Dawkins though, if he can add goals OR assists to his game, it will make him a really valuable member of the team this year.

    What's been so disappointing so far is he hasn't really delivered either. Compared to Ward (goals) and Russell (assists) he has been nowhere close.

    Really hope his is ready to kick on now.
