11 | Jeremy Doku - 2024/25

Hated his dive trying to win a penalty, something that’s crept into our team this season from a few players, I fucking hate it!

But he was a proper nuisance when he came on and could easily have come up with a goal or assist to make it 2-2.

Hopefully will be available to play more minutes against Sporting and Brighton.
 
The lack of goal threat from the wingers is because they are so wide.

They are primarily creators for us.

Sterling and Sane got goals when we played down one wing and crossed all the way across with the other winger reading the play.

Instead our wingers hang back, if the ball goes really over the top, and sometimes somebody like Nunes will score those, but the drilled balls across the ground are much better for the wingers, and it seems like Pep wants Haaland and thr attacking midfielders there.
 
We all know that sane was a different level.
Nah. Sane scored some amazing goals and had incredible pace. But he wasn't an amazing scorer of goals - 39 in 135 games is very good, and better than Doku at present - but his touch was sometimes pretty poor. He did play with prime KDB which really suited his game, whereas Doku has largely played against packed defences sitting back. I never felt Sane was the finished article when he was here.
