There's a reason why we got him so cheap in his mid 20s. Tactics can't fix his lack of quality.

Damari gray has quality. Unfortunely it’s his tactics and in-game decision making that put a limit in his output.
The moment of genius - arsenal and Man City - all very instinctive

There’s a reason why he only cost a pittance…. Based on his cost he’s actually a success

Come on Demarai Grizzle my son, you need to step up right away and put in the biggest stint of form of your career.

I’m hopeful for Gray under Dyche. He’s made for quick, direct counter attacks. The goal he scored against Forest direct from Pickford being a good example. Also very effective on the counter in the early days of Benitez.

The half hearted attempt at possession football we tried at times under Lampard didn’t play to his (or really anyone’s) strength because the slow build up just let defences get into shape. Get it to him quickly while players are out of position and he’ll be very effective.

We would definitely sell him for more than we paid for him. Which makes him one the best signings on moshiri era ??‍

We should play him like United play Rashford. Give him the ability to stretch opponents on the counter attack.

Wasn't in the training video, might be missing.

I've a feeling Demarai might struggle for game time under Dyche, telling he didn't get even a few minutes today

I actually feel
The exact opposite feel like once he is uo
To fitness he takes McNeill spot and becomes pivotal to all our attacks

Not sure, horses for courses, thing is Sean got it spot on today, but in another match Gray might be the way to go.
Great option off the bench either way

He's going to have to up his defensive duties by about a million percent if he is to get on. He will get a chance at some point so we'll see how much he wants it.

Stopped reading after the 2nd line...McNeil.

This comment aged well.

Finally - exactly what he was bought for.

We have everything on the line with Gray signed for 1.6M and Cal Lewin at 1.5M. Moyes signed Cahill and Bent for just shy of the total and was fighting us up to fourth - nearly 20 years ago.

How many miracles are we all praying for here? This is a scandal.

Cahill was one of the best players in the championship and in his early 20s. Probably goes for 25M today.
