2024/25 Abdoulaye Doucoure

[blueblood]

Armstrong should be given a start on Sunday.

 

[MikeH72]

Good job he’s fit and available to start every game because we can never win without him.

So disappointed Moyes starting him.
Soon as i saw his name it just sucked the life out of any enthusiasm.
There are players in division 1 with better touch and technique.
I thought we'd seen the last of him starting.
Do managers see him as a bit of insurance. That he runs about a bit. A worker for the team.....
I dont get it. He's woeful.

Can only think they see him as one of our goal threats when compared to what else we have in the squad.

Only if we sell, he seems too emo to leave out but I never want to see him this forward again. His ball control negates any ability to cover ground. Another source of our goalscoring woes.

Can you explain the “too emo” thing?

Never thought of Doucs as being into the emo scene, but happy to be wrong.

Not sure how you linked Moyes being manager and Doucore not starting.

Until some bodies come through the door he's an absolute shoe-in on a Moyes teamsheet with this current squad to pick from.

All action, physical types lose their edge earlier. Happened to Cahill sadly. Time's up. Knackers yard.

Thats nonsense. Drop Harrison. Start lindstrom. Move Ndiaye more central.
There is always an option than starting Doucoure. He's nothing but a hindrance.

 

[BigBeto1]

He is so bad in the number 10. Moyes will be tearing his hair out after trying to use him like fellaini for 6 months

Someone summed it up on here a few weeks ago. We must be the only club in the world that would play a defensive player with a touch like an elephant in that number 10 role.
Its so bad its comical lol

C'mon now, you know what "emo" is shorthand for...

Anyhow, Doucs at the cinema:

 

[MikeH72]

He will score tonight.

What a call this was.

 

[Clarky cat]

runs about, mostly his legs repel the football. Football terrorist that needs selling asap

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

[barneygumble]

Don't think I've seen a player just lose his pace the way Doucoure has.

Was always surprised be had pace anyway, but drop off is astonishing.

 

[MaximusEvertonius]

I’ll take whatever comes our way by taking the risk and starting Armstrong every match here on out and never starting Doucoure again.
