    Seems to be getting worse game by game. I think he could be a liability in the play-offs - Clint and Ned for me.

    He was very poor today.

    Totally agree, Clint won so many more headers and seems to have bigger desire. Dunne looks like his legs have gone

    I know the Irish lads are a bit peeved with all the criticism of Richard Dunne, but Christ he was so poor again today. He was mis-timing headers, getting beaten to headers and very nearly handed them a clear goal scoring chance on at least a couple of occasions. Their goal was up the other end from me, but was it him that was turned for the goal?
    Everyone around me was saying the same thing. He simply must be rested.

    Agreed, shockingly slow but who can blame him at that age and with that many miles on the clock.

    The way Dunne got beat for the goal was embarrassing , I've seen milk turn quicker.

    You know when that Ford Fiesta's that's been so reliable for so many years has a couple of things that go in quick succession, then a few weeks later and you're facing an MOT bill more than the value of the car itself and reluctantly decline....

    The Watford scorer made the simplest of feints to leave him for dead. His distribution is suspect and I think we'd be far better off with Clint and Ned...

    That's why you should buy Korean, 100,000 miles and 7 year warranty. Bit like Yun Suk-Young, quality.

    So do I..........and a flat back 4..........and 4-2-3-1. No more of this 3-5-2 that the players aren't used to!

    I haven't seen a replay of the goal yet but from what I can remember two of our players went for the same ball and put it on a plate for their player.

    Who were they? I'm guessing one was Dunne anyway?

    But that would have meant hill at cb and Yun at lb which would have improved us in two positions!

    Its almost like he's trying to sabotage us.

    They didn't. The scorer moved to his left towards the ball, Dunne went to close him down and the scorer just let the ball run across him and quickly turned leaving Dunne rooted...

    That incident I'm talking about was just before it though, right? It led to the goal

    Dunne is beginning to look more and more like a cart horse with every game and this is from a fan of his.

    Has to be dropped or I fear we will regret it in the play-offs. Onuoha and Hill for me.

    Did you get to see the game today Kerry? Onuoha was quality. He was everywhere. Bailed the team out on a number of occasions.

    I'm fierce fond of that player. There's an honesty about him, you know?

    Yes, Onuoha is a nailed on starter now. It is sad to see Dunne disintegrating before our eyes particularly when he was such a massive part of our resolute defence during the first half of the season.
