There's no way West Brom would try and sign him if they stay in the Premiership

Have you seen some of the midfielders in the Premier League? If Keith Fahey (basically, a poor mans Gary Dicker) can play regularly in the top flight, then so can Gary Dicker! People seem to be under some illusion that all the players in the Premier League are amazingly gifted, and those outside it aren't. Dicker would have the ability to play for a lower end Premier League side in my opinion. He's never going to be Roy Keane, but he's pretty damn good.

Disagree I'm afraid. Just don't think he has got the ability to succeed in the Premiership. Certainly won't mind being proved wrong if he does get the chance to have a crack at it though. Good luck to him if they do come make him an offer, we will miss him that's for sure.

Just lucky West Brom aren't after a defensive midfielder! I'd happily lose Dicker if it guaranteed Bridcutt would stay.....

I disagree. Dicker has moments of sheer brilliance at this level and the way he can twist and turn to keep the ball is phenomenal, but he occasionally looks slow and delays on the ball. In my opinion he could play in the Championship but the Premier League would be a step too far.

Have to agree with some comments which say he's not premiership class, although he's an outstanding league one player I feel that after 60mins on the pitch he looks very tired and is always giving the ball away. This is just an observation which I noticed quite often this season.
Still want him next season.
