Does Dunk deserve a holiday

[Diego Napier]

Dunky's made some ricketts over the last a few months, letting opposition strikers score against us. Is it time to give him a rest and let Hughes or Halford tighten up the defence?

How about we guarantee him handing in a transfer request?

 

[The Birdman]

Yes lost his goal scoring skill from corners

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Wouldn't do him any harm to sit him on the bench for a game and let Hughes/Halford have a game.

No. The only defender who has had his day and needs a break is Greer.

Dunk is the way forward and should be our player of the season this year.

Is it not the case that the delivery from corners has gone back down the pan.

Oh dear, is his ego really that fragile?

No. I say we hound him out of the team like JFC and then maybe out of the club like Barnes. After all it is the NSC way,

Not looking to beat him with a stick, just asking the question.

Not looking to beat him with a stick, just asking the question.

Why? Is it because you want a debate or because you think he's at fault for all the goals conceded recently?

 

[Prince Monolulu]

I think a weekend break in a local hotel might well help him relax and re-evaluate his form.

 

[stss30]

He's a young lad, must be closest he's come to a full season for a couple of years now, perhaps it's beginning to catch up with him. Get one of the experienced heads in for next few games imo.

 

[BensGrandad]

May be worth swapping him with Hughes on Tuesday if only to keep him on his toes and get back to his pre Christmas form.

I want the discussion and think he's been culpable for some of the goals we've let in.

I know conceding goals is never the fault of one player but Dunk has had a hand (or more correctly, not a foot) in more than just a few. I'm on team Dunk but we have some very capable defenders; a short rest might well prove to be a benefit.

I'm of the view that Greer has been a lot of the problem although last Tuesday he had a good game.

 

[RexCathedra]

The example of Elphick, and Cook, and Hall, shows the way forward.
Leave Brighton when you can. Home-grown defenders are not wanted.

I agree that Greer hasn't been completely sound either, although starting with both Hughes and Halford is probably one step too far!

Wasn't it Dunk that got turned twice by Birmingham? The kid's been brilliant but a moment out of the spot light won't hurt him.

 

[HAILSHAM SEAGULL]

Dunky is good when he has a good player next to him.
Unfortunately, having Greer next to him doesn't do him any favours. Last season he was a lot better defender because he had Upson alongside.
Dunk and Greer both attempting to head a ball in the air on Tuesday was comical when they got in each others way.

I agree to get him back to his best

 

[DarrenFreemansPerm]

Definitely, if we had no cover then I'd want to keep him in but Hughes and Halford are more than adequate cover.

 

[BensGrandad]

I think a rest for even 1 game would help him to re evaluate and refocus for the rest of the season.
