1 way to sum up Dangerfield, and why Gray will get slaughtered in this poll.

Dangerfield makes the impossible look easy, 90% of what he does is just freakish, but he cant get a loose ball, or just free himself up and get a easy possession.
So if he improves the easy stuff he will be elite. When I look at the upside of a player, I look at the things which they can do, what others would not dream about doing, and Dangerfield does great pieces of play at will.

Poor Robbie Gray is getting beaten in this poll. Very underrated player, great forward and has alot of potential in the midfield (if only he got to play there more often...)

Dangerfield's probably the better player but once Port starts to come back up the ladder, Gray will start to get recognised.

Yeah Gray is freak and severely underrated. He is incredibly dangerous with the ball in his vacinity. Wacthing Danger is so entertaining but Gray would alway use it better. Hard one.

Gray is better at this point when fit. All dangerfield as to di is work on his disposal a bit and will be one of the most damaging in the game.

Gray is the superior player now, with the caveat that he actually makes it onto the park. He's one of my favourite players to watch.

I think Dangerfield will end up the better player by the end of their careers.
