    Dagnall

    What are your thoughts on him?

    I feel like he just needs to get goal 1 out the way then things will improve, however he has had ample chances and still not found the back of the net.

    Based on his past I thought he was a shrewd signing. He's not offered enough and we can do a lot better.

    Not bad for a fifth choice striker, looked lively and decent link up play, albeit no real goal threat. May be used more often in the play-offs as legs begin to tire.

    Would rather see Danny Handling given a crack.

    Its partly lack of goals that has led to us finishing 3rd
    When we let Malonga go Stokes and Dagnal were brought in to primarily score goals as the risk with Farid was always going to be he may not stay fit
    The later has proved to be the case
    He will have a role to play in two leg games given his work rate but we can't wait on him finding scoring form so n that basis he is behind Cummings stokes and Keating's unless we need him to play a specific role in seeing a game out
    He has had chances , lots of them , but for some reason he hasnt produced his career average of one goal in every three games for us
    The Semi against st Johnstone he came close and if he had scored then things may have worked out different for him

    I like him he's a busy player. Once he gets a goal I think more will come. A decent squad player

    He's not offered anywhere near enough for me. He's been disappointing to say the least.

    The guy has had very few minutes on the park. For me it's unfair to judge him on that.
    This is how it feels

    he's barely played but seems to have been written off by some already.

    Well considering he's only here until the end of the season and is a complete bit part player it's hard to judge him on anything else. He is busy but his job is to score goals, he's gotten himself in decent positions but I feel he's a yard or two off it.

    he was desperately unlucky yesterday. the cross that came over was at 100mph and he just failed to connect. could see his frustration.

    I like him, he looked to have a good partnership with Cummings when he first arrived

    He's played as much if not more than many we remember as total duds.

    He's a striker that hasn't scored a goal, it hasn't worked out well.

    He has been poor since the start and has never looked like taking any of the chances Stubbs has given him.

    It was unbelievable that some people were content to let Malonga go with Dagnall being quoted as ahead of him in the pecking order and a reason we should let Malonga go.

    Just looks like he is a playing a level or two above his capabilities. I would like him to do well but cant see it happening.

    I don't think anyone would pick Dagnall over Malonga. Sadly Malonga wanted to leave for family reasons and that happens in football. I liked Dom and wish he'd chose to stay until the summer but hey ho he's away and there is no one to blame.

    Says a lot about our mangers opinion of him if an unfit Farid is put on before him in the cup semi final.

    The thing is mate some people did at the time. I know all the family stuff and that, i was more using it as an example of how a player like Malonga who was capable of putting one in the top corner from 25 yards, could somehow be regarded as behind Dagnall who hadn't shown anything like that level of ability!

    Dagnall just needs a goal. I honestly feel that his energy, work rate, link up play and ability to hold the ball up and bring the midfielders into the game make him a player we need to see more of. He is just needing a break.

    My mate who is a Barnsley fan never rated him either. Funnily enough he saw him play in India when he was on holiday in goa and said he was no better there.
    45 AND RISING

    It written for him to score the Scottish cup winner or the goal to get us promoted

    He's certainly not been anywhere near the level we are looking for. His work rate is fine but it's goals we need and it looks like he's failed on that front. I would however like to see him get more game time as he's only getting some game time here and there.

    Dunno why but I have this feeling that once he does score, he'll go on to score a lot more - just now it's certainly not for a lack of effort he hasn't scored. Maybe that's why he hasn't scored yet, trying too hard ??

    You could say that Stokes was Malonga's direct replacement, Stokes has been our most influential player recently while Malonga had been average this season.

    Dagnall effectively has replaced Feruz and Anier, all three have hardly featured.

    Correct Stokes is the replacement for Malonga not Dagnall.

    He seemed to pull out the challenge near the end of yesterday's game with there goalkeeper when a bit more desire would have won the ball and had a open goal.
