lcfc_jme Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Dickov was a good striker when he was here. Defenders were always in for a difficult afternoon when facing him despite his lack of height - and they knew it. He never gave up and chased everything down. Reminds me a lot of Hume actually (bearing in mind I am tired at this stage). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bert Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Dickov is more a clinical finisher, whereas Hume has more skill, technique and class to his game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lcfc_jme Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Dickov is more a clinical finisher, whereas Hume has more skill, technique and class to his game. Was saying it in reference to the way the both hassle defenders and never give them an easy ride despite giving up a distinct height advantage to most.

Jay Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 how can we have Heskey in but no Stanley Victor as an option that match against Sunderland was for me the start and end of what could have been an awesome pairing!! as for big man small man Tony Cottee was 3times the player and goalscorer Dickov was I know I have not really played the game here but nevermind eh!

DB11 Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 If you had the choice to pick any of these as your current strike partnership at City, who would you go for? Nothing serious, just interested to see who people think would work well together and how ex-players rate up against current favourites. Weird, I did a poll and it hasn't come through. I'll try and fixamejig it. Fock it. Choose any two from; Fryatt, Hume, Dickov, Connolly, Heskey and Akinbiyi. Dickov and Connolly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burnsy Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Heskey and Collymore would be my choice but out of players who are still playing id go for Hesky and Hume Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daggers Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Collymore I remain convinced that he could still do a job for us if coerced to don the shirt and take up some jogging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The People's Hero Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Part of his problems have been that he preferred to dribble, rather than shoot, when he got in the box. Women prefer it if you shoot (more than once if necessary) and then celebrate loudly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BartonFox Posted 21 January 2007 Share Posted 21 January 2007 Heskey and Dickov no contest out of the selections with Connolly on stand-by. Ideal partnership from my years of watching - Collymore and Mancini. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geo V Posted 22 January 2007 Share Posted 22 January 2007 Heskey and Hume. The good old big man/small man partnership would work if both players were at theer peak. Watching Heskey batter opponents down the years, especially in a City shirt was great and its more pleasing that he hasnt been the same player since. Hume would benefit from him winning the knockdowns. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
