    Heart of a pea.

    That ‘challenge’ immediately before Phillips second yellow was abysmal.

    He’s shi.te and is apparently also scared of a tackle.

    Waste of money so far. Certainly a waste of a shirt at the moment.

    Don’t blame him for the tackle Phillips made, just the fact he was left to make it in the first place.

    I can’t abide those who fear a tackle and going in half arsed.

    So poor. Fear. Led to what followed directly.

    He owes his team a lot as he’s contributing nothing anywhere else either.

    The reincarnation of Jacob Mellis. No heart or fight. I worked up more of a sweat than him thus afternoon freezing in my seat.

    How him and Phillips get on the pitch at the same time amazes me

    They both have the heart of a pea, the DKD attempt at a tackle was an absolute disgrace

    At least Phillips tries. He’s often ineffective but he’s always there.

    DKD is a show pony with no show.

    Take Phillips goals away and he offers nothing and he doesn’t score anywhere near enough to warrant a start every week. DKD also needs dropping

    For a club with no money, it seems alot of money to spend on a player who doesn't even fit into our system, surely questions asked of the sporting director on that one?

    Totally agree. He owes Phillips a massive apology tonight based on bottling that tackle, it’s not the first time he’s bottled a tackle either….

    And we paid 750 thou for him supposedly and watched him for god knows how long before signing him obviously don't fit our system or doesn't want to be here.

    To be fair the service he got was *****, l counted three passes into him in good areas were played behind him, right in front of the Ponty.

    I agree with that, someone told me Tuesday connell went awol for wrexhams goal as he was telling the bench he was injured.. your either injured or your not and can't of been that bad as he played the rest of the game and started today. I thought they was a few who bottled 50/50s today at times. Dkd seems to be a luxury player who we can't afford needs to grow a pair.

    Phillips and DKD are the same player in my opinion. Both go missing for a lot of the game but can then suddenly pop in a goal or fantastic assist. However, when they both go missing, we’ve got Humphrys running his knackers off alone up front.

    Thought Phillips was a bit better second half but I’m not sure we can play both of them together consistently. I guess we won’t next game anyway.

    Biggest week of the season so far and he's been anonymous and like you say that attempt to win the ball was shocking.

    Because we've paid £3/4 million for him. Certainly not on effort.

    I agree mate, but probably only reason they in same line up is because Clarke won’t play both Hump n Cosgrove from start. Not sticking up for DKD but he’s playing up front when he’s really a midfielder(same as Phillips). Things won’t change until we have more options up front, it’s not good

    Disagree. I think he went too early every single time - if you're in front of play three times then it's not the pass that's bad it's your timing.

    And each and every one of them he made the run too early, covering the direct pass in behind with defenders, leaving the ball carrier to have to play it behind him to retain the ball.

    He’s either terribly out of form - or just not very good, with little to no work ethic.

    I know which I suspect - and there are 750,000 reasons I hope I’m wrong.
