StevO Posted October 17, 2021 Report Share Posted October 17, 2021 He’s just not very good. He offers so little. The sooner DCL (or even Richarlison) can be back and playing up front the better. Romey 1878 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Finn balor Posted October 18, 2021 Report Share Posted October 18, 2021 He’s dog shit. We have all seen shite strikers through the eras but the lad can’t run, jump, use his strength to bring people into the game. He’s fucking useless.

Soucek's face was a mess. Had to get a bunch of stitches. Regret looking up the photo. Still do not think it was intentional. Understand Rafa wanting an experienced big body up front that will hold it up and work defensively but his hold up game was non existent yesterday (Coleman's face every time he had a throw in says it all, no options) and he does work defensively but is winded well before 90 mins comes to pass. Understand the lack of options on the bench and he will probably be starting next game but he needs to be subbed before it's over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he wasn't intending to hit his face, but I can't help but feel that he intentionally threw his leg back there to get a piece of him. It's a dirty play to me.

Early in that first half him and Gray were non existent in picking up Rice. It was only when Iwobi moved onto picking up Rice that he didn't have the complete freedom of Goodison Park.

Cornish Steve Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 Over the last few years, we've learned that players recruited from the Russian league simply don't succeed in the Premier League. How much more is this the case for the Chinese league? There were only five non-Chinese players in the Dalian squad and none of any note. How anyone thought this was a good idea is beyond me.

Thing is, I don’t believe many appreciate Dom as much as we should because he doesn’t score worldies from 30 yards out, and could be better one on one with the keeper. Where he is excellent IMO is holding up the ball and bringing other players into the game, since he’s been out we have really missed this as a team resulting in being under pressure a lot and not having an outlet than can take us up the pitch. Should also add that he’s one of the best, if not the best in the air in the PL, and dangerous in the box generally, oh and did I mention his defending contributions. I’m really looking forward to getting him back and seeing Dom, Richy, Demari and Andros building on pitch understanding.

Bailey Posted October 19, 2021 Report Share Posted October 19, 2021 It is starting to look like that time he had over in China and Russia has taken the edge off of him. I didn't think he was all bad on Sunday but he is levels below what you would expect of a PL striker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zoo 2.0 Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 When you get pulled over by the referee and your own fans are chanting "Off!" you know you're an abysmal footballer.

Romey 1878 Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Is it too early to just say he’s fucking shite and it’s fuck all to do with fitness now? An absolute waste of fucking space and it’s mind blowing how he’s completed another game. Don’t worry though, we’ve got an option to extend his contract for a third year .

Popular Post c1982 Posted October 23, 2021 Popular Post Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 I gave him the benefit of doubt and feel a little sorry that he’s been thrown in but it’s completely indefensible the shite he’s dished up so far.

It was a tough defeat, so I’m trying not to bandwagon, but man, he has been bad. Zoo 2.0 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wiggytop Posted October 23, 2021 Report Share Posted October 23, 2021 Has to be the only player able to move his head away from a cross rather than attack to ball. I have him leeway to get fit, that’s passed, he’s rubbish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
