2022/23 Abdoulaye Doucouré

It was a definite red, silly reaction and made a meal of but it’s a red all day long.

Not sure on the hate for Duke, he’s been one of our best players since Dyche came in, and has been integral to what the manager is trying to do.

I just hope however he changes it (I’d play Iwobi CM and move Gray RW) doesn’t have too much of a negative impact and we manage to grind out a few more results.
 
I hope he ends up with f.a. too.
I'll forever have a soft spot for him thanks to that penalty miss against France. One of my all-time England Exit highlights up there with The Hand of God, Gazza's Tears, Thomas Brolin, Andreas Möller, Beckham's Flick, Phil Neville's Penalty Chop, Lobbed Seaman, The Blast From The Past, Ronaldo's Wink, Gareth Barry's "Hamstring", Pirlo's Pen, Suarez, Roy's Gone (Out) To Iceland, Mandzukic and Modric, and Chiellini and Bonucci.

Wait, there's a lot of highlights to choose from, isn't there...

This is one of the saddest posts I’ve ever read on this forum.
 

I don’t understand why he gets so much hate 🤔. He always seems to put a shift in even if he is clumsy at times.

He was an idiot last night for lashing out.
Well you've kind of just answered your own question?

He's getting hate after last night because he was an idiot, in a period in our season when we need calm heads
 
Cost us three points yesterday imho

Shame, he was probably our best player until that point. Will miss him for the next three games but big opportunity for Garner if he is given the chance
 
A 3-game ban for a slight push in the face is ridiculous. And Moura only gets the same punishment for that leg breaking tackle? However, it’s good to see most pundits and neutral fans are on Kane’s case today for his pathetic reaction.
yeah but it’s the rules isn’t it ? I mean every time anyone gets a red for a stupid push , or a reaction this is a line and even when someone gets a red for an over the top tackle it’s compared to a leg breaker and we’re asked “is this fair ?” .

It’s the rules , you raise your hands you’re getting a red . Kane’s reaction was absolutely pathetic and he deserves to be slaughtered for it , whilst I felt Doucouré had played well until the card . However you do that on the pitch you’re getting a red , certainly if you don’t play for the RS that is .
 

He’s a grown man, a PROFESSIONAL footballer
Imagine if I didn’t like something in my office and I lashed out with that kind of reaction, he has to keep his head in this situation, especially given we were on top

Kane looked a right knob with his play acting but he’s playing the game, being professional, making sure spurs got an advantage in a game which they were being dominated in and if not for their awful sit back tactics after they scored and Keane’s thunderbolt, he’d have got them an undeserved three points because Doucoure couldn’t keep a lid on it
 
Over to you now James Garner (if the boss picks him)

A lot more creative than Doucoure and has a bit about him too

I suspect he may go with Davies though
 
On what basis do you say that?

Is it because he's been first off the bench under Dyche?

He's the closest to the style in terms of pressing, athletism and getting up and down the pitch i think Dyche would want to enable the system. We wont be going to OT to pick passes through the lines. We will be going to battle, close down, swarm and try and play the percentages, Davies has the closest skill set.

Be really surprised if its not Davies,.

Well, in this system, even Davies will know his role. Dyche clarifies that for all players. No more of this "enjoy the ball" nonsense that we had to endure for the previous 12 months. With Dyche, it's also about what you do without the ball.

I'd prefer Garner, because he has some technical skills we lack in midfield, but he'll have to earn that shirt.
