You said he can’t finish, I pointed out he can finish by giving the example of the Napoli goal, so what if it’s one fucking goal he can finish, you know fuck all about football, so what if you don’t rate the player, don’t fucking come on here and talk shit about last night when we were also in the ground.

What? I was also in the ground. Just because you rate him doesn’t mean others aren’t allowed an opinion. Forums would be absolute shite, like your post, if everyone thought the same.

He’s played over 2 seasons for us now and he’s had a few very good spells in games. He then goes missing, does very little defensively and by and large doesn’t impact games as well as he should given the ease with which he can go past a player. If he had more to his game he’d be a Balon D’or contender every year, but the reality is, he doesn’t do enough.

You think just because he can skin a full back I know nothing about football? We have all scored a worldie at some point in our playing career regardless of the level we played at. His shots generally lack power or placement or, and here’s the most important one, goals. His crosses are hit with hope 10x more often than not. Only at times this season he’s shown real quality and I don’t think he’s done it consistently, he has done it more than any other season with us though and I genuinely hope he keeps it going.

Honestly, if he were for sale, 1) how much would you value him at and 2) based on that valuation which clubs do you think would be in for him?

I don’t dislike him, I just don’t think he’s got it unfortunately.
 
Needs to work on his off ball movement to reach the next level. How often did we go through on a counter and he was still outside the penalty box when he could’ve easily overloaded the box. I see this at least 2 times a game which would give him good goal scoring opportunities

Do I think Doku can improve his game - yes.
Do I think he lacks football intelligence, stamina, awareness - No.
Your two questions - I think City would get there money back, if they were to sell him.
With him being only 23 a lot of clubs would be after his signature, I can see a Newcastle would probably be in for him.
This is a better post, your first post was shocking.

I disagree about my other post being shocking, but again we’re all here for debate and to share opinions amongst other reasons.

That’s the thing for me though, and this isn’t from a point of arrogance about our club, he’s our player at the moment and he gets my support when he’s on the pitch just like all the rest of them, but you’re spot on that a club like Newcastle would be in for him and they’re not where we are, in fact, they’re nowhere near where we are even during this rebuild we’re on. He’s got a lot of talent in 1 part of his game, but he falls way short for me so far in his city career in all other areas. Madrid, Barcelona, Bayern and PSG etc… wouldn’t be remotely interested in him.

I really hope his form continues and he can develop the other areas of his game.

He can be the best winger in the world if he just runs more. But I think hes afraid of getting injured.

What the hell is a deep completion?!! Stats are good but they don’t tell the whole story, to be a world class winger he needs to learn to release the ball earlier more often, work on his off ball positioning and finally work on his finishing
