Ha ha, about 12yrs or so I played Clash of Clans with my lad, I gave up after the iPad it was on ground to a halt.

You build up tour own village and populate with an army of bizarre characters and arm them, whilst building your own defences. Then you raid other villages. It's probably evolved a great deal now.

Nice little side hustle for him

That was a waste of a Tea break !

Another blank against a dominated team, blows hot and cold. Struggle to love this guy

He had one chance which he should have stuck away but other than that his general play wasn't too bad. Better days are certainly to come.

Hopefully saving himself for Tuesday...

Fingers crossed, we'll need him to put a shift in

His control is pish - the ball bounces off him more often than not and if he’s not scoring he’s a spare part on the pitch , no matter how many times the manager or fans try to defend him.

He uses his size and weight to try and retrieve or retain the ball , he hasn’t got much skill to do it so he has no other choice .

He scores goals and that’s why we bought him but when he’s not scoring he’s the most frustrating player on the pitch .

Agree with you on his overall contribution when not scoring. He's sureouby much better footballers so his lack of a first touch stands out even .ore. i will say that the cb was all over him for most of the game yesterday before finally getting a card in second half so that doesn't help him or use. We will get a lot more space on Tuesday

I feel he worked a lot harder yesterday. Not everything was coming off but he was moving more intelligently than before his injury and was having a proper battle with the CB. He also dropped deeper a few times which suggests he's improving in that area too.

When the middle is so congested he draws defenders to him which opens up space for KDB, Foden and yesterday Josko and Bernardo in wide areas.

He wasn't our best player but he certainly contributed yesterday.

He should have scored that sitter though

Re the Sitter: I actually thought he would pretend to hit it , make the goalie commit and then take it with his right foot, which we see so often.

Overall i was pleased with his game, especially the work chasing players down , often winning the ball back. He also knows as soon as Doku comes on
he isn't getting a pass.
Doku is bekomming an irritant, times when he can play the ball in for others and he keeps it and ends up running up blind alleys.

Love the lad. A fellow blue
