Dixie Dean wore this, I established, and scored the most (9)
I believe the answer is:
stripiest
'dixie dean wore' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this defines the answer.
'i established and scored the most' is the wordplay.
'established' becomes 'est' (abbreviation).
'and' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'scored the most' becomes 'strip' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should give a lot more credence to this answer).
'i'+'est'='iest'
'iest' put after 'strip' is 'STRIPIEST'.
'this' acts as a link.
