2025/26 Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall

KDH is also excellent at pressing. He's better in everyway apart from physical presence.

He’s fantastic at pressing with the added bonus of being great on the ball, he keeps hold of the ball very well, It’s all opinions but I cannot fathom how anyone could miss watching doucoure in that 10 role. One thing that I can say though is they’re both not natural 10s….

was another reason why we got the result on monday in the second half when under pressure how good players like ndiaye grealish kdh was keeping holding the ball. I would like to have another profile like a doucore in the team just to give us that option of a more direct player. Looks like moyes doesnt really rate alcaraz

KDH - Garner - Tim

Alcaraz 60min addition to hit a tiring backline.

I think Rohl could be that profile, if he can get fit

 

[Swartzy]

Rohl - the magician that nobody has seen do anything other than increase his injury record.

Dibling - the waste of funds from the club.

For me i think tim is best suited to a 3 in the mid would need garner to sit in deep to protect more but do think it would work. Kdh showed on monday can play in deep so would think depending how the game is going and tim fitness during the game alcaraz would be the sub to come on

Love the thought of that midfield

We're so fortunate Chelsea's squad is so competitive otherwise he wouldn't have come.

 

[TheBigIguana]

Maybe Gueye's suspension and Rohl's injury presents and opportunity to try him deeper. Not against Newcastle, like.

I'd love to see at some point this season, him playing deeper, Ndiaye through the middle, Grealish left, and Dibbling on the right.

There is no benefit to Ndiaye playing centrally

 

[TheBigIguana]

I don’t want to see us going back to having two deep holding midfielders in a 4231 again. We’re two wins in a row playing a midfield three with one holding player and two attacking mids ahead of him. KDH is brilliant in that left sided attacking 8 position. Hopefully Rohl or Alvarez could play the other right sided 8. We don’t have the players for 4231.

I really don’t know what people think they’re seeing when they say things like this. The system has not been changed in any meaningful way. Dewsbury-Hall has had a natural bias toward the left side the entire season.

I can’t help you if you can’t see a difference in how we’ve set up the last two games vs previous ones.

Are you saying that because it’s different or because the result was different so you’re assuming we had to make a change?

 

[RFUS]

Really enjoyed his interviews. Seems a very well spoken and honest lad. Can see why Moyes loves him.

 

[Mick OMalley]

I remember people saying we miss Doucoure

For me that's like saying I miss having chicken pox, I was delighted we jibbed Docoure and replaced him with KDH

 

[Brett Angell Delight]

Really like this guy. Amazing the difference that something so simple as having a player adept at receiving the ball on the half-turn can make.
