2017/18 Kieran Dowell

My mate is a avid forest fan. Echoes what is said in here really by saying he drifts in and out of games, good going forward but no so good going back. Says the quality of the lad is apparent and when at the races he oozes class and sticks out like a sore thumb.


Looks like we have a possibility of having a cracking player but has much more hard work to do on other aspects of his game unless we can fit him in as some sort of luxury player.
 
He's twenty, playing his first full season in one of the toughest & most energy sapping league's in Europe; play Saturday, Tuesday & repeat, is his team's top goalscorer and has a live televised hat trick to his name. It's been a dream loan move for Dowell and yet any complaint is about his languid style.

I get he can drift out a game, seen that - great point if you're expecting him to be Messi (he's not) - but what he has got is that rare commodity which is to make the game look easy with a passing range and vision that very few possess. Under Warburton he has thrived in a side that is mid table at best. It's a better loan move than say Pennington at Leeds who can't break the Pontus Jansson Cooper partnership or Galloway & Browning at Sunderland.

He'll come back hopefully ready to press his clams in pre-season and he certainly offers a creative option that at times we sadly lack. Good luck to him!

Pennington, Browning and Galloway. I had completely forgotten about them, and that's never a good thing.

Browning is doing fine now at Sunderland, MoM recently. He’s different from Dowell as he’s probably playing to find his next club. I’ve read a lot of the Forest fans comments this season , and they seem to be pretty fair, recognising his skill and his deficiencies. While like all football fans their opinions will vary , they have been watching him in the flesh unlike us who’ve just caught the tv bits, so it would be foolish to dismiss them. What I’ve noted though is a gradual swell of appreciation for him, not surprising given the goals, but also a recognition of what he contributes to the team. Mark Warburton is a sound coach, he knows what he’s got and what to work on with Dowell, definitely in the best place for the rest of the season.
 

Weird all this obsession about speed. How fast is David Silva? Ozil? Eriksen? Mata? Fabregas? And that's just right at the top, there's an enormous list of players who have made a solid prem career who are equally as slow if not moreso. Dowell is fine, the major query over how well he does will mainly be down to quality of coaching and team's style of play.

Or indeed about size. It was probably before your time on here, but way back when there was an American bloke on here that wanted a team of genetically modified super grocks who could run like the wind and jump over buildings. @chicoazul will know who I mean.
