Doku’s output per the minutes he’s played is actually pretty decent. He can definitely improve. Savinho isn’t on Doku’s level at the moment. I think Doku and Bobb will be our wingers once he returns.

Give Savinho time and he too will be a useful asset as Doku has proved to be. The plan was to be eased in alongside Bobb.

Writing off Savinho is insane as well, he’s 20 years old. Bunch of lunatics on this forum.

There isn’t a single player in world football like Doku, who can take it around a player from a standing start. Saying players like him are two a penny is ridiculous.

And listen I agree wholeheartedly his output isn’t good enough but he’s also only 22, Mahrez was playing for a French second division sides reserves at that age.

There's no good comparing what clubs players were or are with at a certain age.
Mahrez was PL player of the year before he came to us and was influential when Leicester won the title.
Doku has potential and if he can work on his final pass and visual awareness he will be top class

Has the potential to be one of the worlds best if he carries on working on his final product.

Yep! utterly ridiculous as per usual from some on here

The problems we have with the wide players not scoring goals isn't helped by the fact we are buying wide players who don't have a record of scoring goals.

OK they look good when they have the ball but there isn't much end product, the days of Mahrez and Sterling are long long gone.

Like him but he is a bit of a mard twat.
We have quite a few of them too.

Last time I looked nobody in a sky blue shirt is scoring, where’s the goals from midfield, the whole team is low on confidence in front of goal, somebody needs to step up big time, Doku really should of started against Palace after scoring against Forest.

That isn't the point I was making mate my point is a simple one. We recruit wide players with a poor goal scoring record we shouldn't be expecting them to get goals.

As for the midfielders? With Kev and Rodri out we have lost momentum there, the wide men we are playing are very much our first choice and they couldn't hit a barn door at 5 meters and have no real goal scoring stats to say that would change.
