I’d imagine Dobs is well known by the EFL scouting network, strengths and weaknesses so he’s not really a surprise package. If it’s felt Cookie has ironed out his weaknesses he would attract a lot of interest. Not sure if he’s quite there yet, my feeling is another season with Cookie and playing regularly would benefit him immensely.

Strange really dobra when on loan from Ipswich to Colchester could hardly get a game

Dobra needs to learn to pass. Too many times he's caught in possession because they double up on him.
Against West Brom he tried dribbling, realised he was getting nowhere then started to release the ball quicker and looked the same class as championship players.

I like Dobra, he has loads ot talent but for me, his downside is all the diving he does, he's a cheat. I know this is part of the game nowadays and I know supporters like to see it but its just not for me. If he could shake off the cheating, and try to release the ball sooner he would take this league by storm but because of his antics, he's a long way from being one of my favourite players in our squad.

Yes, I think that is one of his weaknesses, which will come as no surprise to the scouts. Does a league club take a punt on him at the moment? Not so sure

Highly unlikely. He needs a consistent, injury-free season here before that happens.

I think Colclough has similar problems to Dobra regarding decision making. Both skilful potential match winning players but playing at this level for a reason. The difference is Dobra has more potential to improve as he is younger.

There is another reason Colclough plays at this level. His contact with the law on more than one occasion.

100% Agree, his antics are counter productive. Reminds me of the Little Boy who cried wolf tale...
He needs to be far more conservative and constructive with his "gamesmanship" its embarrassing at times.

That said a very good player who could easily become a town legend if he concentrates on football

He is a talented lad, for sure. When he cut inside on Saturday and lined up a shot, I honestly knew he was going to score. On his day he's a real danger. Hope we get to see lots of these days next season.

and what a starting point he has to do that from because he is top draw talent for the level we find ourselves, he also has a great coaching team around him who will help him learn the pro game but let's admire the talent of this lad whilst he's still at our club, personally i love watching players like dobs, he's what i go to football for, for that excitement when such a player gets on the ball and in a way you're not certain of what is going to happen... there's a lot to learn for sure but so glad he'll do that learning at our club.

People who whinge more about his diving rather than appreciating his talent bore me. Boo f**king hoo, he does what almost every single other flair player does and exaggerates contact. Cry me a river.

(He should stop it though because it rarely benefits him lol)
