Patson Daka

[lcfcell]

get him a proper manager and the goals will flow. 

[coolhandfox]

We have 3 good forwards if we had a manager who could play to their strengths. 

[Phenom]

He needs to continue to start.

[Mendi]

Did well

[adam]

Played well today. Put him self about a bit too. 

Probably be on the bench on Saturday 

[Pliskin]

Looked quality today. Took his goal really well. 

[Chelmofox]

Did what was asked of him. An assist and a goal. When we were direct he looked a threat.

 

I imagine Brendan is pi**ed about the 2nd goal because it came from a long ball.

[Guest Col city fan]

I think he’s a really good striker who needs to be playing regularly in a good side. Not playing second fiddle to an ageing Vardy in a shit team.

As I said weeks ago.

Daka would look good in a good side

...I believe Mwepu is Daka's best friend and they came to the league at the same time!!!

I am sure neither wanted to be upstaged by the other.

Another poor signing, lacks movement, intelligence, awful first touch, not used well by Brendan in any case.

This has not aged well.

Daka is a really good finisher. He just needs a run of games, as opposed to coming on and doing a donkey cameo 

[Happy Fox]

Daka and Nacho are the future. Play them both together and I can guarantee they would both get 15 plus goals.

[South Shire Fox]

Ball over the top for one of the quickest strikers in the league and he scores.. amazing! Its almost asif trying to play to his feet is a waste of time after all 🤔

[Shane]

Our best chances recently have come from direct balls over the top (Vardy’s missed chances Vs Chelsea & Daka’s goal today). 
 

If we get a manager who will play this direct style consistently (like the majority of PL teams are doing now), our 3 strikers will score a hatful.

To be fair we have had to coach him to run for the ball over the top and not drop in to look for the ball to feet. Now he seems to have got that he could be phenomenal

Won’t matter until we sort our defence out

Disagree. It's what he did at Salzburg, it's what he did for us in Europe. This coming deep for the ball feels like a Brendan thing...

I specifically remember after one game last year it being said that he had to be reminded at half-time why we had signed him as he wasn't sprinting or pressing. On a number of occasions last year he ran towards the ball rather than look for it over the top but perhaps he just needed to settle in. 

[Ric Flair]

Marco Rose to come in and manage him again.

[Tuna]

I know this was posted in the match thread but Daka and Nacho could have a great partnership up front if allowed to flourish.

[Buzzell]

Hopefully he will get a good run in the side now. He was very good today.

[Harpenden Fox]

Daka and Kelechi up front. Maddy sitting behind them.

 

KDH and Youri running the midfield.

 

Wilf back to DCM.

 

Chestnuts. Jonny. Wout. JJ

 

i simply don’t believe that team should be bottom of the league

Don’t forget that ‘ageing’ Vardy got 15 goals in half a season last time and a run of 5 games not scoring doesn’t mean he is finished. Daka had plenty of opportunities last season to cement a place in the starting line up and didn’t take it. 

 

He played well today, but let’s not go overboard after one game. He has clearly got talent though and hopefully can keep improving.

We know Vardy and Kelechi can play well together

We know Vardy is getting older and we thought Daka was his replacement.

 

Perhaps use one of the 5 subs to give Vardy and Daka 45 minutes each......alongside Kelechi

But if Kelechi gets taken off for a defender at 70 minutes....  perhaps not much potential flourishing time in the 2nd half.... ?

 

Whatever, 2 up front please.....

He hated the game we beat Man City 5-1 or 5-2 because we played on the counter. Knob!
