2024/25 Charly Alcaraz

[Username.]

He should play on Wednesday and replace that monstrosity of a footballer.

 

[Vaughan]

mental alacrity and vision.

The bit I've seen he looks like a jack in the box, ready like a coiled spring to dart about quickly. Get him and Ndiaye on the same wavelength and we'll get our share of decisions eventually.

What was the stat when he was here, Pienaar was the most fouled player in the league? Let's get a wicked strong left footer in LB and watch this side down a few of the rest of the league.

Arteta was the most fouled player in the premier league in 06/07 playing right midfield, and possibly the year after

….presume you mean Doucoure. It’ll be good if we find an alternative, but he’s done more than enough to maintain our top flight status over the seasons and has been far from a monstrosity.

Doucoure to run like hell for 60 minutes.
Alcaraz to isolate any yellow card carrying defenders subbed on at 60.

Time to use the rules to our benefit for a change.

Where does Ndiaye and Alcaraz play when McNeil is back and fit.

 

[MACCA75]

We’ve been crying out for a central player that can travel with the ball for years. It’s been a massive hindrance to us. Hopefully this guy - and also Tim, can solve that for us.

McNeil will be on the bench hopefully in that case.
Very hit and miss player with more miss than hit.
Ndiaye, certainly and Alcarez , possibly are both better options.

I wouldn’t mind seeing him under Moyes though, could be a totally different animal and he certainly has the ability.

Don’t rate him I’m afraid .
Always thought he was average at Burnley .
Occasional flashes of brilliance surrounded by dirge.
He will always be an ‘almost ‘ player, I think.
Never quite living up to the potential he displayed as a young player.
Which is why he ended up at Burnley really .
Seems a nice enough bloke though and I wish him the best of luck ,

The signings of players like Doucoure are the reason we are where we are.

….the signings of expensive misfits who barely contributed is the reason we are where we are.

….none since Iwobi.

What? Still in the Premier League?

And that.

But Doucoure can't control a ball, has little vision and can't pass. He's poor. Granted he's scored important goals and gives his all.

Unless he somehow returns from injury with an extra 5mph and the ability to use his right foot I don't think there's an awful lot more to come him him.

Fighting for survival.
