chicagoblue Posted August 8, 2023 Report Share Posted August 8, 2023 Haven't watched him much, but he does seem to be two footed and works hard. Touch seems quite loose though. We could probably do a lot worse Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Around the same as as Daka when he managed to tighten up his game to go with pace. Maybe so but not performing for a team fighting relegation is very different from a team trying to win the league! Salah under Klopp is very different to a Salah under Mourinho as well fwiw. Im not sure a Daka under Rodgers is worse than a Daka under Dyche?

Not sure it makes any difference whatsoever, pressure is more on players facing relegation. Rogers used Daka mainly away from home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you would agree with me that like Salah, a previously rough round the edges pacey forward who at 24 didn’t set the prem slight despite showing immense promise at their previous club? That daka could just need the season or do to adjust? Salah exploded at fiorentina, Roma, and Liverpool. Rodger’s used daka as a workhorse to defend from front instead of using his pace for attack, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Relegation fighting is also not the same situation as challenging for Europe, but some thrive under the pressure of potential relegation and some crumble at the prospect of winning a title. It's really impossible to judge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh I know mate. He'd have to shed half his body weight but with our current management, if they brought him in, they'd get him fit again before Christmas and then we'd only have to argue about his hold-up play and why that's not his role Hafnia and StevO 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

c1982 Posted August 15, 2023 Report Share Posted August 15, 2023 Daka wasn’t on the bench on Saturday despite being fit (according to the Leicester fan I know) - they went for 2 goalkeepers instead. They think he’s definitely off somewhere with us being the main link. Bambi on ice and worse than Maupay was the feedback I’ve received but that is probably full of bitterness with them going down and losing all their players!

Matt Tiger Posted August 16, 2023 Report Share Posted August 16, 2023 From what I've read it seems like he was never given a fair crack at it there and he's got lots of talent for his age though he will absolutely be frustrating at times.
