2022/23 Abdoulaye Doucouré

[Carlito]

I understand the logic of getting him up the pitch where he can perhaps force the opposition into making errors, but as a tactic it was always going to get found out sooner or later.

You can't hide from the ball forever.

We had one of the 5 greatest managers in the history of football at our club and we spent 66% of the budget on him and Godfrey AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH

And he was getting a tune out of both of them.

Everything will be ok when the Duke returns they said

Very poor man's Carlton Palmer. Great motor but no steering

 

[Curtis]

Its tragic His positives on the pitch (high tempo coverage without the ball) are completely undermined and nullified by his glaring deficiencies when he has the ball. Perfect example last night was when he was able to intercept a Newcastle pass in their box and was facing minimal coverage, with tons of space to operate , while there was wide open players. What does he do? He blasts a wild erratic pass to the opposing defender who wasn't even near any of our players....if you're just going to spunk the ball away, the original interception doesn't matter and that's why I dont rate him despite his mobility

Yep carlo really was a miracle worker

 

[Zatara]

Im certain that if he had Onana and Garner behind him, he could be a box to box high energy press machine -- Iwobi as well.

Win the ball or cause errors then simply feed those two who can actually pass and move.

However, it isnt easy to forget his downing tools under Lampard.

Christ a poor mans Carlton Palmer, thats some label

 

[Gilbert..]

Big game for him tomorrow. Ok i dont rate him. But he at least can have the odd game where if he's at it with his attitude he can be effective in digging out a result. Its not much, but we dont have that much.
He needs to be right in their face tomorrow and not be anonymous.

Especially when you've also got Iwobi playing like Carlton Banks.

 

[blueconverse]

Never looks like he is in full control of his limbs

 

[larrygobfiend]

We’d be cut adrift if it wasn’t for him being back in the team. That’s a fact.

We'll bang the goals in as soon as Calvin is back.

Who is this Calvin and when is he back?

 

[Syrup]

Might be Calvin Klein, theyve always covered my back(side)
