2023/24 Abdoulaye Doucoure

[Amokachi1995]

The sooner this fella and Gana aren’t starting in our midfield the better. We simply can’t play football or control a game with them as our centre mids. With Garner and Onana as the two and say, McNeil/Harrison/Danjuma in the 10 we might stand a chance.

I agree. You would have thought that the three we had in midfield today would win the physical battle against most, but they were miles off. Whatever Doucouré was supposed to be doing wasn't working and him and Maupay are a match made in hell from an attacking perspective.

Thanks for the goal and a flash of form the back end of last season, but well and truly finished now, alongside Gueye.

I agree that Gueye and Doucoure are garbage most of the time. My concern with Garner and Onana as a midfield duo is how little they're involved in the game. Both would have to step up massively if they were our centre mids.

He’s not a number 10 or whatever position he is playing, he doesn’t have the creativity to play in behind.

Suits Dyche’s dinosaur football. He shouldn’t be starting next week.

 

[ToffeeScot]

Surprised he wasn’t dropped after last weeks horror show and decisions that ultimately ended up costing us points. Should be now. He was absolutely terrible.

 

[DanEFC92]

Great decision to give him a new deal.

 

[maccavennie]

A no10 who can't actually control a football or pick a pass

Only at Everton.

 

[Tin-Tin]

Great decision to give him a new deal.

Wasnt a new deal was it? Didnt we just activate a 1 year extension?

 

[Rodebaard]

Why did he get subbed in the last minute of extra time? What's the point?

Hopefully to be replaced by Gronoto which would be a massive step up.

Hello Mr Dyche,

Please drop Doucoure, he’s back in Lampard-mode after scoring against Bournemouth.

 

[CrabbyPaddy]

Why did he get subbed in the last minute of extra time? What's the point?

I thought the same.

My only suggestion is Dyche did it to make a point as he was shocking. Could’ve subbed any of them tbf.

 

[nsno-chris]

Made a living out of showing up in every 10 games

A failure of a footballer; but he once scored 7 goals for Watford

Was this lad playing yesterday, can't say I noticed him much.
