We still have to work out how to get the best out of him but that is something we really need to do. Of course some of that is what he needs to do too but he could be frightening at this level with his natural assets as well as his ability for a big man.2

No idea where these stats are from, who compiles them & who watches ALL our matches ALL the time.......but in my view they are wrong. For someone supposedly 6ft 4 (or is it 6ft 6) his actual heading ability is not very good.fenaddick said:Remember when people thought he was no good in the air and was unlikely to improve?
If the stats ARE correct then all I can say is that he must win loads of headers ALL the time I'm not watching because from what I've seen he often mistimes his jumps and is too much under the ball rather than attacking it.
Just my view.7 -

What's an "aerial dual" ? If its anytime he goes for a header then I'd hope he's winning battles against anyone under 6ft !!1 -

I’m not sure that getting to the ball ahead (no pun intended) of someone that’s shorter than you makes you good in the air. Dykes is much better in the air than Leaburn.Diebythesword said:Leaburn is so good in the air he makes me sometimes think dykes isn’t good in the air by comparison.

Bet Wrexham don't just lump it up to Moore every time he's playing though.fenaddick said:

Don't confuse me with the facts, my mind is made up.golfaddick said:

Whoever the stats provider is will have a team of people watching all matches and logging passes, shots, headers etc. You can say it’s wrong in your opinion but you’re arguing with actual professionalsgolfaddick said:

And to answer your next question, yes an aerial duel is when competing with someone else in the air. He’s rarely doing that with anyone under 6ft and one look at the CB’s in the league would show you that2 -
How many CBs are under 6ft and why would this stat be noteworthy.golfaddick said:
