Can everyone PLEASE leave Dickson Etuhu alone

All I read here is criticism yet Dickson is one of my favourite players on the staff just now. Not only does he have a nice short name - less ironing-on of letters and concomitant RSI and scalding injury risk for the UEFA-qualified Kit Management Professionals on the staff of your football club - but he takes ABSOLUTELY IMPECCABLE CARE of his kit throughout the game, doing his best to keep it clean and tidy and not get it muddy or sweaty.

Unlike that bastard Huckerby who runs all the bloody time and seems to think getting mud on your shirt is clever!!! And it's not as if these new fangled balls they use these days carry less mud and water than the old ones either. Every chest-trap is ANOTHER 50p from club funds in the laundrette - think of THAT when compiling your player stats. AND Huckerby's name is relatively long and he refuses POINT BLANK to consider doing the deed poll thing to shorten it.

Dear old Dickson - bless him - even kept the creases nice and crisp yesterday. That shirt will only require the lightest of ironing before it's ready for re-use. We need more players like him, in my book.
