WorrallOwl17 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 His passion is fantastic isn't it? He genuinely loves playing for the club you can see what every win and goal means to him. Unpopular opinion but he's a better defender than Dom for me. Better in the air, more commanding leader, neither are good with the ball but i just feel more safe him defending a cross or putting a tackle in than Dom. Saying all that, can't wait for them to be back playing together for the twin set piece threat 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hack-Abusi Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I've slated him before and rightly so .. Chey Donkley Now he's hit a purple patch at the right time and what is probably a perfect league for him Few shaky moments, letting his man go, but once he gets going throws absolutely everything at the ball for the cause, body, legs, and especially head. Wins an outrageous amount of headers / borderline concussive state Can't fault the lad and nothing but praise for him at the moment Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreshOwl Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 He’s been great, but is this a case of someone finding their level? Because he was getting pulled all over the place at championship level. Might have been victim of playing in a team shot of confidence though, and was still getting back to full match sharpness after a long lay off, so there’s that to consider as well I suppose.

Physically, Iorfa is an absolute beast and those physical attributes mean he has often been able to get himself out of sticky situations. That is a good thing, as he is prone to lapses in judgement. Dunkley is a unit himself, but I think he's a better defender than Iorfa in the traditional no nonsense way. He's also a leader and a real character. As things stand, Dunkley is one of the first names on the team sheet and rightfully so. He still needs another big centre half with him for me in the flint/Rob jones mould. Be formidable then.

DIPPS_S.W.F.C Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Fast becomming my favourite player,now he's had a run of games confidence and leadership are showing. He's a beast at both ends of pitch,wins 95%of headers and gets something on 50/50's majority of time....And balls he has no right to win.. Needs to be captain too..IMO....

Am not sure it’s fair to say DM isn’t a fan, Whats absolutely fair to say is unfortunately Chey Dunkleys fitness record is nowhere near good enough, I’m sure this is through no fault of his own and he’s obviously working hard to be available , but this is the real world and DM will be working to a budget He most likely won’t be offered a new deal because he hasn’t been fit enough for DM to rely on Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel. Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 Not sure what kind of wage we signed him on when injured so may not be as big a saving as we think. It just hasn’t worked here defensively. He’s been decent at getting on the end of things in the attacking sense but compared to storey and Dean he can be a bit erratic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Similar sort of player to Danny Baht who did well against us in the playoffs. Not a footballing defender but does the defending part of the job well. I like the way he attacks everything that is coming down the middle. I think his ideal foil would be a fully fit Iorfa using his pace to over for any flick on etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not as big a fan of Storey as some.... certainly he's not an aerially dominating CB and you need one in this league. Dunkley far and away the best in the air at the club. Hypothetical though as both very likely to be elsewhere next season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonnyowl Posted May 11, 2022 Share Posted May 11, 2022 I wouldn't keep him. Yes he can head the ball and yes he was playing well before his injury, but we weren't winning games then were we! If DM want to play out from the back then Dunkley doesn't fit, he awful at passing, and his positioning isn't great. For someone who has been here and had 10 good games in that time, not worth a new deal. Not bad at what he does, just not what we need. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
