2023/24 Abdoulaye Doucoure

[maccavennie]

He's not crap, but he definitely can be. He's such an unusual player.

He can volley one in from the edge the box or can volley one into his own face from a throw in.

So true lol

People can moan about his limited technical ability but where we are right now as a team he’s important. Works so hard out of possession and tries to support the attacks.

 

[Neiler]

Ran all day and important to the structure, but thought he wasn't at his best today.

A joke? It's called football fella not cross country running.

We’d be in the championship if it wasn’t for our cross country runner. That’s a fact.

If Harrison had passed to him was in a VG position to slot in, that would have made his day.

 

[Rodebaard]

The guy works very hard, and is currently really important for the press. Seems to get the odd goal as well. But he really does lose the ball a lot.

Very true.

 

[Zatara]

If he had scored the 1v1 today then wed be saying how effective he is...lots of effort and pressing and scores goals.

Instead a good save by the keeper.

I mean, we are a football team that requires football players.

We are not the Liverpool Harriers

Very good pressing and good goal record under Dyche.

I think a new deal is good because it will save us money signing 2 attacking midfielders Jan/summer. Instead we can bring in someone to develop off the bench over 2 years.

Great athlete, limited player. While Dyche is manager Doucoure will always be one of the first names on the team sheet.

He liked tired &?should Baverstock been subbed when DCL was .......

 

[zook]

Interesting to see who plays in his role against Burnley (I assume he'll be rested). Doucoure is very important to us for Dyche's system, because he is a bit of a freak athletically, but would be interesting to see how we fare with a technically superior player in that position.

Underrated and undervalued.
Not a great technical player but follows instructions, puts in the dirty yards, creates loads of space for others, presses better than anyone else in the team and scores a reasonable quote of goals. He never shys away either.
Every team needs a workhorse ( or a water carrier as Cantona called them).
Time the Duke started getting appreciated.
