2024/25 Abdoulaye Doucoure

[yakublue]

Can’t fault his pressing in games, problem is he is goosed after 60 mins. His biggest problem though is he is atrocious when he has the ball. Have never known a player to give away possession so much even when all he has to do is make the simplest of passes.

At the weekend he had a goal and an assist, was on the ball constantly and completed 85% of his passes, and was only dispossessed once. For the role we ask him to play, I don't think you could ask for much more. He doesn't look good on the ball but, like a striker, he's often receiving the ball in areas where he's immediately under pressure.
