11 | Jeremy Doku - 2024/25

[applejuice]

, 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.

Our wide men are not goal scorers but they still have a very much better status with other teams. Savio had a good status in La Liga. Doku and Bernado have G/A regularly with national team. And even Grealish scored 2 assisted 1 in his recent 4 outings at England team. If it is only one winger it makes sense. But ALL four wingers all have decent status at the other team at the same time they could not hit a barn door at City. it really does not smell right.

Perhaps it has something to do with the flat back 11 man defences we come up against?

If watched Belgium Portugal or England team you will see most of the time they also face a deep block.

Let me say.

Doku actually looks much better as a right winger for the national team but not so here.

Bernado can cut in and shoot bangers.

Grealish can run in behind and score some Raz like goal in the national team.

All at the exact same period when we saw they hardly scored anything for City.

There must be something wrong with the training. Or it is the set up. Or whatsoever. It just doesn't smell right.

The players mentioned haven't been prolific goalscorers anywhere they have played, Mahrez and Sterling were.

We recruited them knowing they aren't prolific it's not like they are even out of form it's just that's what they are.

Doku has it in his locker, we have seen glimpses of it so far. I think he could grow to be extremely effective if he gets the right coaching. The risk is he has insufficient of a football brain to respond to improve in his choice of final ball and shot. Savhino isn't and to me never will be a real asset to us. I hope I'm wrong. God we miss Mahrez, the most underrated City player by City fans.

Most international games that England, Portugal and Belgium play are against players much inferior to the PL.

Mate, have you not seen San Merino’s recent surge?

Do you reckon the waiter at LB would have Doku in his pocket?

Would that be the waiter who just ran past Kyle?

Blaming Doku is foolish.

He has double or triple manned and then people expect him to do something.

If that happens, then he did his job, the others have to be smarter to explot the obvious spaces left.
