2020/21 Abdoulaye Doucouré

[Nymzee]

it comes down to awareness as well, he’s constantly letting people run off him and seems to be the wrong side when defending. He’s not strong in a tackle either

Reminds me so much of Schneiderlin, slightly more athletic

I think he’s been typecast as a defensive mid because of his size but to me just keep Allan back in our half and let Doucoure do the driving forward runs.

 

[TheSecondComing]

He’s just a typical Watford player all the heart of a small ferret

 

[Bob Latchford]

He has the potential to become a target for the boo boys.

I feel sorry for him as he has been pulled all over the place. He’s someone who needs to cover a lot of ground and this includes covering for James. He’s got into more goal scoring positions than most of our midfield players for several seasons.

I think he’ll be a great asset to the team whenever this current shambles gets sorted out.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

It was his passing and decision making last night that I was disappointed with.

Harsh on Richarlison

Problem is Allan has shown he's better at that than Doucoure too

Yeah that run in the second half is something that Doucoure has shown that he can’t do. He doesn’t ever break forward with intent, he is just another safe crab.

I think he has it in him, hes just showing worrying signs of being Evertoned

Yeh but unfortunately we can't afford to let Allan keep doing that as no one fills in for him.

 

[everton1953]

He was very poor and seemed to forget which colour shirt his colleagues were playing in.

 

[Furey1878]

Has probably has an equal number of good and bad games so far. Both him and Allan desperately need someone else to do the dirty work with them in midfield.

 

[Frenk]

Doucoure, what is he? At the moment I just don’t see why on earth we bought him, he certainly doesn’t compliment Allan, and if anything stifles him.

 

[micknick]

Agree with this. He covers a lot of the pitch and if he can get some consistency with his play I think he’ll be an asset.

Looks like we've found Tom Davies replacement for the boo boys! Christ on a bike - this fella is the least of our issues and will be a sound player for us, if we give him a chance instead of writing him off after 10 games FFS.

Since the derby, with the injuries and suspensions, we have been tactically all over the place, and so have Doucoure and Allan, with either the systems or partners with them. That goes for the defenders as well.

It's on Carlo that he keeps changing players and not getting any consistency out of those he picks. He has to go with youth and the players in their correct positions or we will have more of the same as yesterday. Whatever system needs the specialists in their roles, or maybe one out of position (iwobi at rwb).

Sick of our fans writing players off - were the best in the world at it.

 

[Azza]

He doesn't even know how to take a throw in!
