2020/21 Abdoulaye Doucouré

[JMT]

I said a few times that I wonder if we're containing him.

I couldn't see him being box to box, he wasn't covering enough ground.

I do wonder now if when James plays, his instruction is very different.

They 100% are, That's why we need a sitter so we don't have to rely on Doucoure to just play as James cover man.

He was everywhere tonight, he was even able to up his game when Allan went off.

Doing all the defensive work in the middle on his own once Allan was off. Brilliant.

Best performance for us tonight

Stepped up to the plate when needed...his positioning was excellent in the second half!

Exactly.. said in the transfer thread.. we need to move James centrally.. this will allow Doucoure to play how he should be .. He has been constrained by needing to cover James the whole time.

We really are knackered if he breaks.

Like completely ruined. Please stay fit.

Still our best signing this summer.

The two tackles in the box were timed absolutely perfectly. The quality and the discipline he’s shown these last 2 games has been outstanding.
