rtaylor91 Posted December 6, 2019 Report Share Posted December 6, 2019 Looks more likely to score than DCL tbh, I do like the way he plays on that last man and does look to have a goal in him, not a case of if but when, and I hope will see something special here once adapted.

Heath Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Wasn't a happy lad being substituted against United after only coming on 20 minutes earlier. To be honest he had put in a few rash tackles, so maybe big Dunc feared, if he continued like that, Kean would be sent off... which is something our manager knows a thing or two about.

Finn balor Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 I think maybe dunc made the wrong substitution and quickly rectified it. If so fair play to him Matt, StevO, Bailey and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought the tackles he made were largely well done, one in the corner which was harshly punished. If the ref was going to send him off, Davies would’ve been long gone. I think it’s a disciplinary action, though I don’t agree with how it was done. Hopefully it was more tactical which makes sense, though probably a mix of things.

He should’ve been tearing up every blade of grass for 20 mins. It’s a harsh lesson for him to learn, I hope he does. meanwhile from the BBC Everton boss Duncan Ferguson expands a little more on his decision to substitute Moise Kean after just 18 minutes: "I thought he had not quite got into the pace of the game. "Also, I have so many attackers on the bench I just needed to make a change to waste a bit of time. It is nothing to do with the player." Asked if he will be speaking to him about it, Ferguson added: "I will do when I see him."

I’d like to see Kean start on Wednesday though. Could be a make or break for him. I'd like us to hold back on making gambles in the line up when we're 2 games away from the final. Digne will likely not play, along with half of the midfield who are all on sick notes. Let's treat this game with the highest of importance.

That’s the way of the world these days. Snowflake generation is it? Nobody can take a bollocking these days and it annoys me to fuck.

Shukes Posted December 15, 2019 Report Share Posted December 15, 2019 Your post is right 100% Though I would still give him time. He is young and needs that chance. Give him that kick up the ass and see how he responds. Fact is that at the moment, DCL is ten times the player he is. Ball is in your hands Kean. Step up, or ship out.

Moyes came in and when he substituted Jesper Blomvist for being a lazy git and got the cold shoulder he tore into him in front of the players and staff in the dugout. It lay down a marker. The kid clearly has talent but that's not enough. We have had too many players putting half efforts in. We are jealously looking over at Liverpool, out working teams, putting work rate as a platform for talent. People are getting all upset because this kid is a prodigy....

barryj Posted December 16, 2019 Report Share Posted December 16, 2019 Did his performance reallly warrant Ferguson to completely ignore him? Kean also looked a little confused when he was subbed on and immediately had a chat with Richarlison. I’m sure none of us will get to know the real reason. If it’s just about chasing the ball and you want a striker to just run and run (with little control or no end product) then Niasse is your man. I’m surprised Ferguson doesn’t realise the difference between the two as I could tell you beforehand what you’d get from each player.

Pretty standard last minute sub to waste time. You don't wanna mess with your defenders and midfielders while they are doing OK. He picks the one who has least impact on our defence and changes him with quck, physically strong forward who will put more pressure on Utd backline and may force them to clear the ball long, which in turn is easier to recycle.

Because that's his whole game - to run around like an excited puppy. barryj and Sibdane 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
