    Bernardo Silva signs new contract until 2026

    Nobody knows anything, if we weren't allowed to infer from peripheral evidence we wouldn't be human. It would have been, if I behaved like a tough guy on the internet, but I didn't.

    Bernardo Silva signs new contract until 2026

    Don't be a tough guy on the internet. For the last three transfer windows or so he is hankering for a move to Barcelona. Nobody says he isn't a great player, its just every year it seems it takes convincing for him to stay.

    Bernardo Silva signs new contract until 2026

    Oh wow, no need to be hostile, just saying how it looks from the outside. If you want to correct me thats great, I will learn something but I will definitely not "not talk about your players". sheesh

    Huh? His skills are sublime!

    Welcome Jeremy Doku | Signing confirmed on a five-year deal

    Doesn't everybody? Thing is Jeremy's decision making is not a weakness. Just because his dribbling is so good doesn't mean any attribute that is not at that level is a flaw. He reminds me of Ronaldinho more stylistically/aesthetically, of course a more speed oriented version. And Hazard in...

    Welcome Jeremy Doku | Signing confirmed on a five-year deal

    Bingo! This is what separates him from the Traores and St Maximins. He reads the game so much better. I recommend watching the other videos on the channel, they are really informative. He absolutely destroyed Nottingham, Wolves was not his best performance this preseason but he still made a few...

    10 | Jack Grealish - 2023/24

    Jack Grealish is a fookin legend. One of the most skilled players ever. Thats all I wanted to say on the topic. I can see him being Doku's mentor.

    Welcome Jeremy Doku | Signing confirmed on a five-year deal

    Traore is about pace, Doku is about acceleration and precision in his moves. He's not like Traore because he doesn't do kick and run, rather makes constant starts and stops and keeps the ball under way closer control. Again saying hes "raw" doesn't make sense as technically hes as polished as it...

    Welcome Jeremy Doku | Signing confirmed on a five-year deal

    Citys medical staff should be watching him. He has a higher risk of an ACL tear with those herky jerky moves and the force he applies to accelerate. I hope he stays uninjured. He does have a tough time getting back in full rhythm. Before 2022 he was just fearless and probably had even more pace...

    Bernardo Silva signs new contract until 2026

    I always liked him as a player (except when he was scoring against Madrid in the Champions), but he seems to be intent on leaving and then changing his mind every summer. Not sure whether hes constantly posturing for salary increases or hes just needy as a person.

    Welcome Jeremy Doku | Signing confirmed on a five-year deal

    I'm sure you will be glad to be proven wrong! The problem is youtube "career" comps make him seem like he just beats players with the ball leading nowhere. But check this one with all of his touches against Monaco a year ago that just dropped. I think its a pretty good example of how he plays in...

    Welcome Jeremy Doku | Signing confirmed on a five-year deal

    Not yet, but in a couple of years. People are still sleeping on Doku, thinking he's some Traore or St Maximin clone. He's so much smarter than the typical speed merchant. He doesn't only rely on speed but even more on anticipation, timing and reaction. He doesnt force the issue or play 200 kmh...

    Jeremy Doku

    He has an opinion, I just wanted to see something more concrete and substantive. I honestly can't wait for Doku to link up with Haaland. I think they are a match made in heaven with Doku's space creation, crossing and vertical passing on the counterattack, and Haaland insane box presence, off...

    Nicoló Barella

    Barella doesn't play in the same position as Paqueta but he is a much better player and would be amazing lining up for CIty.

    Jeremy Doku

    Of course, but this is not an opinion, its just cliche phrases. Diamond in the rough, needs polishing, ok, but what area needs polishing? What do you want to see or expect from the player that you are not seeing currently?

    I wouldn't be so sure about that.

    Sane is two-thirds of the player Doku is at his best:)

    Jeremy Doku

    People talk about this "end product" but its just a cliche phrase. Doku consistently gets the ball to his teammates in dangerous positions in the box by passing and crossing. Yes he doesn't get into enough goalscoring chances and this is something that he should work on. But in terms of assists...

    Jeremy Doku

    Oh I am very excited. I see people are still using the fast dribbler headless chicken stereotype about Doku. You are in for a surprise. His decision making is excellent for someone playing at that speed, and his technique is flawless. He is far from "raw" as he is being described here; sure he's...

    Jeremy Doku

    That is incorrect. He's a very good passer (much better than most dribbling wingers), has high IQ and vision, makes good decisions and keeps possession very well. And no I am not his relative or summat, I described clearly his shortcomings: poor off ball movement, weak shot power and mediocre...
