  1. Like many other clubs .... King power have took the fans for granted.... no matter what crap was served up .... now the tide is turning they are scrambling about looking for ideas .... myself .... I will pay good money to watch good football.... and 25% or 95% won't change what I have been watching for the past few years .... Karma is at your doorstep King power ..... live with it

    Daka instinctively runs hard putting pressure on any back line he's up against and that stretches the game but he his touch and ability don't match the work rate. Personally like his attitude but he's isn't an instinctive finisher like Vards. 

    Reasons not to play him far outweigh playing him .... Andy Cole was a decent player in a good team but for every 5 decent chances he would only take one .... I dare to think what Dakas ratio is .... attitude and hard running are great attributes... but its goals we need

    But that's not true though, he absolutely has instinct. In recent games he's fashioned opportunities out of nothing really (i.e. anticipating defenders missing interceptions, closing down goalkeepers etc). He's just not sharp enough to take these chances, but he absolutely has instinct. 

     

    Most of his career goals are instinctive finishes.

    Can't see it myself ...  if he had that much instinct his goals tally would be a lot higher, the only defenders I've witness missing interceptions are playing for us, most goalkeepers are good with their feet so he is unlikely to get the better of them ... and then factor in the amount of time he spends on his arse

    I can only judge what I see on the pitch - he's never shy of working hard. He still has a strong instinct (he often gets half chances from opportunistic play) but his execution is not anywhere near as good or consistent as it seemed to be in Austria.

     

    He's never seemed "in sync" with our squad with regards to movement. This, to me, speaks to a lack of tactical/footballing intelligence, which Vardy had heaps of, and not a lack of effort.

     

     

    Strikers like Vardy have instinct, will gamble and make defence splitting runs, chase lost causes .... Daka has none of these

    If you’re shit at your job, you’re not really in a position to moan about a lack of opportunities 

    Not forgetting the bagful of cash he gets paid every week for doing fu*k all ..... would you moan

    Some on here will try too.

    Oh he runs

    Oh yes not in the right system

    Oh yes got potential

    Blah blah blah..

    Exactly... I've got a dog that runs but he's sh1t at football ... so was he brought to fit our system...  or build a team around him ... he shows no signs of any potential to me he's just a less than average player in a less than average team ... so actually he probably is in the right system

  8. At any other club he would out of the door either sold or loaned out .... he is not a goalscorer in any shape or form ... play to his strengths .... what are they ?? ..... I get the alternatives are few ... but that's down to the club management not identifying potential strikers ... the saying of if you don't concede ... you don't lose .... but on the flip side if you can't score .... you won't win any ..

    Our previous away games under Rowett suggest it is likely to be tight tomorrow. Tight games can go either way. An away win wouldn’t be an outrageously surprising outcome.

    Don't disagree... but our threat level is very low .... and our ability to give up is very high .... a win would be very welcome... by has to be followed up by another win ... which we seem incapable of .... random surprising wins will not be enough to drag us out of the sh1t

    I assume we’ll hear that they’re freezing prices the week before it’s possible for relegation to be confirmed.

    Definitely they will offer a price freeze for renewal before our fate is decided and not long to renew

    The club will start planning once the season ends and after top and Jon have returned from their well earned extended break. 
     

    Forget about expecting a well thought out plan. 
     

    Alas they can’t kick the can down the road now. 
     

     

    Number one on the agenda for the plan for next season is

    1 We haven't got a clue .... any ideas ?

    2 Ayew and daka ... contract extensions ... many thanks to both for agreeing to sign for another 3 years 

    3 defensive options for next year ... okay there are none 

    4 Tactics.... are they some sort of mint ?

    5 AOB ... okay nothing .... let's down some Chang and pretend everything's okay and we know what we are doing
