Brennan Dickenson

Colchester United midfielder

Best mate? I consider everyone in the squad to be a friend, but I reckon Doug Loft. I’ve known him the longest, about four years, and this is the second club we’ve been at together after Gillingham. Last to buy dinner? I think I’ll have to say myself! I’m happy to split a bill, but I reckon this one falls on me. Worst dressed? Tom Eastman. There’s no doubt about it. He goes for oversized tracksuit bottoms, basic trainers and a poor hoodie. That’s the worst thing I’ve seen him wear and he wears it pretty much every single day. He takes the stick quite well, to be fair. He’s happy with what he’s got. Dressing room DJ? Drey Wright. He goes for a mixture of everything. R’n’B, hip-hop, a bit of house music – he’ll cater for everyone’s needs. Since I’ve been here, it has always been him and he’s been pretty consistent. I’d back myself to do it, but Drey provides a good service so it’s fine by me. Always late for training? Cole Kpekawa. But there are quite a few… Craig Slater is late, too. A lot of the boys who travel in from London are late the most because of traffic. There’s a fine, but it’s not massive. November is always double ahead of Christmas and that money goes on the do. I’m never late, I live only 15 minutes away, so there would be questions asked! Teacher’s pet? Probably Tom Lapslie. He’s pretty close with the boss. First on the dance floor? Kane Vincent-Young. He loves to throw a few shapes whenever there’s music on. I’m not sure what the moves are called, but he really goes for it and I think he’s pulling them off. I’m terrible myself. I only go for the two-step. Most likely to disgrace himself at a Christmas party? Sean Murray – that’s based on experience. I can’t go into too much detail, but he and Drey Wright would definitely be at the top of the list. We’re going for fancy dress this year, so it should be interesting to see what the boys come up with. FIFA king? There are a few up there, but probably Drey Wright again. He loves FIFA. I don’t play it myself. I used to back in the day, but I’m not a regular any more. Drey is always commenting on it in the dressing room and I think everyone is trying to beat him. Worst tattoos? There are a few bad ones floating about. Craig Slater has a couple of dodgy tattoos, as does Sammie Szmodics. People will probably say mine aren’t great. I’ve got some Greek gods and I want to get a couple more. Craig’s one of an angel looks a bit deformed. I think he’s trying to cover it up at the moment. He knows how bad it is, but he has also got some good ones, too. Likely to make the best manager? I think our goalkeeper Sam Walker will be a good manager. He’s got that calm presence and knows how to control a situation. I think he has that ability to take that into a possible managerial career.
