2021/22 Demarai Gray

Would only play him on the right hand side now. Means he can't cut inside and will be forced to either get a ball in or try and link up with someone.
This is not a solution.

And sometimes link up play is about not passing the ball when they take the man away from you. Leicester covered the overlap well basically every time. Sure he can pass it anyway but who do you want beating a man one on one, Gray or Mykolenko?
 

Our good form at seasons outset was due to fantastic performance by Gray, Doucoure, and Townsend. Even before Townsends injury he had regressed badly and Gray and Doucoure just as much.

Townsend is older and has a history of hitting golazos for a few games then reverting to a very ordinary player, so his reversion to form was expected. Doucoure was covering the most ground per game in the PL before he got hurt- which is what let us get away with a midfield two for a time.

Gray is the one who had real surprise to the upside and he was showing it early on. It’s a shame. We have taken several more CB points under Lampard if we had Gray in early season form the whole time.

Hope he turns it around.

Wrong. It needs to be mixed up. There were plenty of opportunities to lay it down the line and he constantly tucked in.
Cant see him starting again after that underwhelming display.
 
Absolutely terrible again. Cannot shoot, refuses to pass when other players are in better positions - greedy. He might be an asset for us if we get relegated, but he's not a decent Premier League player. Sadly I think both he and Townsend will start 20+ games for us next season if they're fit enough, regardless of our division.
