Beth Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 He's a poor mans Aaron Hughes. Good enough for a 17th place team but nothing more. He'll miss at least half the season through injuries anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Somewhere between Hughes & Ramage, aye. Closer to Ramage like. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pilko Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Incredibly shan on Hughes that comparison, he was a competent, consistent PL defender for basically his entire career. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Hughes was a 7/10, Ramage 4/10, Dummett about a 5 imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Aaron Hughes played 16 PL seasons for decent PL sides. Played 40+ games for us a season when we were finishing 3rd, 4th, 5th all while playing over a 100 times for his country. Paul Dummett doesn't even come close.

ToonArmy1892 Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Hughes could also play anywhere across the back, to pretty much the same standard. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 That 01-02 season with Nobby was brilliant. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dokko Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Ramage 5, Dummett 6 and Hughes 7....imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Optimistic Nut Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 (edited) No chance. Probably not far off Robbie Elliott 2001 onwards level, not fit to lace 1993-1997 Robbie Elliott’s boots. Edited July 14, 2021 by Optimistic Nut Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest HTT II Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Above average defender, awful footballer. Shouldn’t be anywhere near this level along with most of them. A canny fella though apparently and good on him having the career he’s had, he’s been playing since he was 5 and put more work in getting where he’s at then a lot so kind of deserves these kind of deals, far more than NUFC actually deserve good eggs like him ironically.

Consortium of one Posted July 14, 2021 Share Posted July 14, 2021 Makes a fine 6th CB in a 3 CB tactic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a compliment surely? It's basically the same as saying Coloccini was a poor mans Carles Puyol. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joey Linton Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 He's poor. Still better than Lewis though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yorkie Posted July 15, 2021 Share Posted July 15, 2021 Dummett can be fantastic on his day, and nowt gets past him. But, given the amount of games he's had, you'd have thought a better club would have been in for him were he not average at best. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 We need a fullback who can defend more than one who attacks. I’d happily stick him back there and let him do his thing. Slide tackle people into oblivion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cf Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Put Dummet in the team (assuming match fitness which obvs isn't a given) and I think he's quite low on our list of problems for the time being whilst being a clear upgrade on whatever else is going on.

Conjo Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Wouldn't be opposed to giving him a chance in a back 3 together with Fernandez & Schar. As a fullback I'd rather stick with Ritchie tbh. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 Dummett's been our best left back for like half a decade or something. Until we sign someone else I cannot see why we wouldn't play him there. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Conjo Posted November 27, 2021 Share Posted November 27, 2021 I feel people say that until he's actually back in the team and remember how fucking shit he is at everything except 1 good sliding tackle every game. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
