11 | Jeremy Doku - 2023/24

[Kamaro011]

This kind of match will makes Doku stronger in the end.

 

[Craig]

Still not fully convinced.

Great at going past a player, but not seeing much in the way of end product.

Time is certainly on his side.

Fair play, you must have got on the beer really early. Skinning people for fun putting some really dangerous balls across with his weak foot. No end product you say? Yeah, he only put 2 on a plate for Haaland and particularly Alvarez. If they’d scored would you think he had end product!

Clueless.

 

[Gabriel]

Must work on the consistency of his first touch. Too often he is wasting the first seconds getting it back under control and that gives his opponent time to recover. It’s an odd sensation. We’ve gone from having Mahrez, who had the touch of a mother with her newborn- and the pace of the same, to Doku, who would leave Bolt at the blocks but sometimes has the first touch of a navvy in hobnails.

Yep. Needs to show us he can play as a CB and defend perfectly well, score goals and most importantly he needs to take over the goalkeeping role from Eddy. Then and only then would i be convinced...but then again, I'm not really sure if that would still be enough for me.

Maybe you should compare him to a player who is still here, like Jack, who never beats his defender.
No better first touch than Mahrez. But he's not a City player.

I do love Jack.

 

[lancs blue]

Played well today, not sure what the criticism is about - he's a winger, things don't always come off. He didn’t let that bother him and set up good chances.

 

[madloaf]

Good not great today I thought. He is exciting though and that's no bad thing.

 

[TrentGrisham]

Blew hot and cold but it's important to remember he's only 21. I said in the pregame thread, I'd love to see him on the right, Grealish on the left, and Foden between them.

 

[kenbelly]

The young fella is brilliant and will only improve with age and experience. Made some great chances for his team mates, Shame they couldn’t finish.
